I had not known of him before your post, looked him up. Did damn fine work by all accounts. Too bad, we need little people like him doing the job and making gun ownership just that much more fun.

RIP Walter.

I hope he had an apprentice, family member, business partner, that can carry on his work. Knowledge and talent at that level, need to be passed on to the next generation.

That is why our masters in Washington are so anxious to disarm us. They are not afraid of criminals. They are afraid of a populace which cannot be subdued by tyrants."

Walter and I could talk for hours about what he knew about firearms and what I did not know.

With all the real bastards in this world, we have to suffer the loss of a fine man.

I shall miss him.
