Re: The CHIEF and ME.......
Very nice! Chief AJ was a great man. I cherish the throwing axe and Marine Corps Challenge Coin he sent me. There were only 24 coins made, Don Findley has one and Chief told me that 2 Marine Corps Commandants also had them so I am in rare company. I never had the chance to meet the man in person but we spoke several times on the phone and he was a delight to talk to. The world lost a good man with his passing.
Some people sit on $.05 of knowledge like it is the treasure of Egypt. I will teach anyone $.10 worth just to prove a point...

Re: The CHIEF and ME.......
Great pictures! He was a good friends and stayed at my home twice and set up with me at the Lima Ohio show and they he put on a shooting event after the shows. He even stopped by the show to see me on his way home from an air gun show to drop off a couple Red Rider BB guns for me. I remembers he called me one day shortly before he passed and we talked about old times. I was blessed to know him.

As I remember the story Radical & Carl (Flatgate) attended a show (NRA?) together.
Carl after spending the week-end perambulating around the show with Radical, promptly proclaimed him a
"CERTFIED RUGER MAINIAC" and named him so on the Rugerforum. The rest is history... you are in good hands!
