I think this happened a while ago did'nt it. I agree though it certainly is a sad thing to see one of the few real men our country has left pass away.

If it happened, it wasn't TOO long ago, as he still had a column in gun mags a month ago.  (They write them before hand, but they won't publish without some mention of their death.)

A long, full life, with a lot of bad health in recent years.

The greatest combat handgun theorist and mind that ever lived. He founded IPSC and always stated that the best double action gun he ever examined and shot in the world was the CZ 75.
RIP Ol' Soldier
