A gun is a tool, no better or no worse than any other tool: an axe, a shovel or anything. A gun is as good or as bad as the man using it. Remember that.

And shepherds we shall be, for Thee, my Lord, for Thee.
Power hath descended forth from Thy hand, that our feet may swiftly carry out Thy command.
So we shall flow a river forth to Thee, and teeming with souls shall it ever be.

No problem! I try to keep things up to date on here just in case there's anyone still on board that wants to keep up.

I've been doing this long enough to see a lot of "start-up" guys come and go, but lately I'm surprised that I've outlasted some of the "bigger" names. Sarge has retired and Ahrend's is filing bankruptcy. I don't know what happened to at Lone Star Custom Grips.

The BIG Guy pops in once in a while, I hope he's still doing his grip thing but he hasn't posted any pics here in his ‘What’s on the workbench today’ thread since 7/2017.

I haven’t seen him on any of the other boards for a while either. I hope he’s doing ok. He’s one of the few grip makers that I like.

I wondered what had happened to Ryan, When I tried to access his website recently, and it wasn’t there. I’m also surprised the hear that is no longer active!
