Sort of the same story here. I had talked with Jim for decades dating back to the early 90s on the phone. I didn't meet him in person until I was heading to Ottawa to retrieve a gun from the Hammond barn. I ended up getting a somewhat heavier Centurion gun part that he had rescued from the scrap of that same museum. Item is on the front right of the deck in the photo below, and was important to counterweight the negative pressure on the hitch from the necessary placement of the gun.



A recall of our meeting is located here: http://www.mapleleafup.net/forums/sh...4&postcount=65


Glad I took the time to stop in and see him. Life is not infinite.
