Anybody familiar with this builder?
Spike was a friend when I still lived in IL and we used to visit frequently on the show circuit. Have lost touch with him since I moved. As I recall, he was a forensic scientist and into trekking. I think he made a trip or two with John Curry's gang. He went thru a divorce and kinda fell off the scene for a couple of years.
Do you know where he is from and the quality of his builds?
He lived in the Indianapolis area and helped out Narragansett Arms build rifles and also did their engraving. I know he built several of the Ferguson rifles and others. This was before the company was sold and went downhill. I know he built a few guns on his own but don't think he was a builder per se. He was more interested in blacksmithing and made knives. I've got a couple and will show them if I can find the pics.
Is he still working?
Dunno, Pletch or some of the guys who still attend the Connor Prairie gun show might know.
