Today C. Roger Bleile, our Guild Historian and eminent firearms author posted on another forum the sad news of the death of his fellow author R. L. "Larry" Wilson on Sunday evening, December 11.
Roger will undoubtedly be posting more details here as his time and information permits.
Larry was a good friend and adviser to me.
My condolences to his family.

My library is filled with his books, used for reference quite often. I never met him except through his books and he will be sorely missed. My condolences to his family.
Thank you Sam and Bill.
Sadly, another giant of the engraving world has left us.
Larry Wilson did so much to promote engraving and decorative firearms collecting.
He will be missed by us all.
John.
