Looks like pneumonia complications got him. Full metal jacket made him a legend.

Always brought a smile to my face when I would catch him in a movie or show....he will be missed.

Met him at the Charlotte gun show a few years ago. Very nice guy

RIP, loved his work.

A real shame.

He's the only reason Full Metal Jacket is worth watching and once his part ends - the movie turns to garbage.

Met him in Atlanta at bladeshow. I was there showing a knife I had designed and got him to hold it to my throat for a quick pic. He actually put me in a choke hold while holding it to my throat. Really down to earth fella. RIP
Knife was Kryptoglow KG Hybrid

Meet him at the SHOT Show in Vegas a couple different years. Seemed like a good dude with a good heart! He really tried to search out the Veterans and thank them for their service and sacrifices.
