Nor would there be a Colt mark III nor a lot of young man his M16 attached  granage launcher saved in vietnam. His accomplishments simply amazed me. I hope his biography gets published someday. All handgunners especually us Dan Wesson lovers(and Vietnam vets as well) own him a lot. He was a great man and more people should know about him and his inventions.

I see you have been to the sight. Lots of info I never had heard of befour. I hope the bio gets published someday the world need to know. A working title could be " the man who made the Dan wesson work"
