In memoriam - RIP cal pappas

If this news is true then RIP Cal.

He has provided me with much needed guidance when I purchased my first double rifle. Answered many of my questions with patience. Met up with him a few months back at a local gun show. He was a nice guy in person as he was online.

Regards,
 
What a terrible loss. Just saw him post yesterday as well.

RIP
 
Too soon he leaves this earth.. Hope he is hunting at the eternal hunting grounds.
Rip and condoleances to his family and friends.

Wow.....talked with Cal frequently...........last time just 11 days ago..............sorry to hear............FWB
 
I've never before been physically shocked hearing of a forum member passing. I couldn't believe my eyes. He seemed like someone who would always be there talking about doubles and answering questions for others and maybe myself one day.

RIP Cal.
 
OMG, terrible news! Never met him, but PM with him frequently. I purchased some dummy rounds for my collection. Very pleasant individual. What a shame. RIP Cal, you will be dearly missed.
 
I met him at the 2018 Alaska double rifle shoot, great guy with tons of knowledge and always willing to talk guns. I purchased one of his great books (bore rifles) and he included a 4-bore lead ball with the book. My sincere condolences to his family, he will be missed!

I'm unfortunately on a diet. Presently in VA hospital as Agent Orange finally caught up with me. Cancer and I no longer can speak. If all goes well I'll be out of here and back home in Thailand by end of July. Tough road but I'm a tough old guy. I'll make it that hunt.

Nice one there. I guided for mulies and elk for about 10 or so years in northern New Mexico.
