Terrible to hear. He will be missed.

I am very shocked and extremely saddened to hear this news. I have spoke with him many times on the phone ..in fact just recently and am so sorry that I will never have the chance to meet him face to face. He was always respectful to me with his calm demeanor. I am so sorry for Lori and Parker and company. My sincere and heartfelt condolences.

We are diminished.

May Brad rest in peace and his family find comfort through this difficult time. About 10 years ago I worked for Brad while I was in college. I grew up in a third generation gun shop in Northern Michigan so for me working at their shop was like being at home. Brad, Lori and his oldest son Carson were always good to me and I will forever cherish the time I spent there.

Very unexpected!...sad news indeed. We must continue to support Brads family and business. I have a Grade 2 top lever hammer gun that Brad did a full restoration on about 3 years ago. It is a master piece of workmanship, superb color case, wood and metal! He will be missed! Kenny Graft, SXS Ohio

That is shocking, it's so much more difficult when a passing is unexpected. I'm truly sorry to the family and his friends at the business.
