I'm not on here too often and just noticed this forum named in Roy's memory. I've been researching scope mounting options for a vintage Iver Henriksen rifle. While not really Roy's cup of tea, as he was a fan of the more modern synthetic stocked fare, I kept running into his old posts. Regardless of his personal tastes, he always appreciated a fine knife, rifle or optic. I miss Roy and his thoughtful, generous, helpful way. I'm glad I saw this.

Here, here! Thank you for your input. He was a beloved member of our forum. 

I for one, appreciate you taking the brief time to remember him today. He was a valuable resource here and is missed dearly.

I really miss Roy too, Kingston, and I really appreciate your kind words. He and I had similar tastes in gear, so I could relate to him.

He left us way too soon!
