    Unhappy Remember

    Happy birthday today to my late friend and shooting buddy Paul Antkow. He was well known to many of you here and and on the old RLB as "4thebirdz". A decorated Nam vet, shooter, handloader, bullet caster, rifle builder, and a damned good friend. He left us way too soon.

    I don't remember who took this picture so I apologize to the photographer in advance.

    Paul was one of the few who could be more sarcastic than me with his good sense of humor. RIP 4thebirdz.

    He was the first RLBer I met and the picture was taken at my Dads farm during RLB 07. Sure would like to go back in time and shoot with Paul and the rest of the bunch again...
