If only in the sense of his unlimited generosity and positive attitude. This is an interesting pic he sent me while researching AZ gun builders. A swell friend waiting on the other side, he still inspires me.

like it uses TC Contender barrels. I see a thumb lever to shift a top locking block like the RPM/Merrills and FA2008. Obviously the Ruger gripframe. A wild marriage of a TC/Ruger and unique locking mechanism.
