He was always at Tanner (did the custom brakes), but I haven't been to Tanner since the pandemic started. I'm guessing he went out of business because the card I have with all his information is all disconnected. I was wondering if anybody knows if this is the case or not, or if they saw him at any of the recent shows. I have a Mauser style action Model 70 I need done.

If it's the same guy I'm thinking of, Chris @Rocky Mountain Weaponry (the hello kitty mac10) was pretty tight with him as they frequently shared space next to each other in the NW corner of the south side section of the Tanner merch mart.

I haven't talked to Chris in years but if he's still doing gun stuff he might be worth contacting to find out what's up with him.

Last number I had for Chris was seven one nine 32two 81nine3.

Try Chuck Moline at Warpath Vintage, he does all the shows, might know the guy.

About 2 weeks ago I learned that Barry and his wife had moved away to Texas.
Then he was hospitalized with COVID and passed away.
It was a bit of unpleasant news.
We set up close to them for years and always chatted with him when we had the time.

Thank you to everybody for responding. My heart sank when I read this post. I didn't know Barry personally, but I did talk to him on numerous occasions through the years because I really liked his work. I'm sad to hear what happened.
