We have lost another FSN member, Slackfin

Postby cwt7691 » Sun Jan 13, 2008 11:34 am

I am sorry to report that Ron Horn (Slackfin) has passed away. It happened due to a heart problem in later part of this week. He was a great guy, friendly to all. He will be missed by those of us in the Orlando area gun community. Chris

I have met/bought a couple of things from Ron in the past and he was indeed one of the good guys. Rest in Peace, Ron.

I'm shocked and sad. Got to know Ron over the past year as an intelligent and friendly guy of great character. What a loss. .xup

It's always sad when one of us fades away. We just don't do well as durable goods. All the old folks in my family are gone, and I'm next in line! And I don't feel very durable!

Sorry to see Ron go. May he rest in peace!
