Prayers for he and his family, that is really too bad. He had some good ideas about firearm design and construction.

Its a sad loss for the firearms industry. Say what you will about the RRA rifle, but mine has severed me flawlessly for many years with no problems and at a great price. That was always the company's goal, great products at a great price.
It is sad to see so "MANY" firearms industries "Owners and Operators" die at such a young age. I'm not saying anything, just saying. You guys have all read the news and seen the list. Any Libs on that list? I don't think so.

I was going to post this Friday when I heard it, but it wasn't released at the time so I withdrew it from reading.

I will be going to the visitation. :(

Sending prayers to him and his family. His brother and he are innovators and entrepreneurs, and this country sadly needs more of their kind. He will be missed.

faaw, I didn't see anything to get riled about, he talked about a list and I asked where can I see it and I would think there really aren't Libs that start gun company's, guess there could be but I would not think so. Did not read anywhere that he said anything negative about the founder of RRA.

Both of you are good guys and I respect both of your opinions on here...

faawrenchbndr, I apologize for pissing you off. This your thread. I have tons of respect for Mark Larson, his company, and his values. I own a RRA of which I said above is a GREAT rifle. It just hurts seeing all of these great American entrepreneurs,operators,and true patriots die within the last year. No need to reply, your pissed and I get that. I'll just stay out of the way.
