I am very saddened to hear this. Mike responded to a wanted add I placed on here for a Park rifle some years ago. Upon calling Mike to discuss delivery of the rifle he very kindly sold to me, we had a lengthy conversation about air rifles and in particular about the rifles of John Whiscombe and harmonic dampening and the hammer effect. At that time I did not realise who he was and the input he had put into the development of harmonic adjusters on rifles-he just came across as another member of "our" great site with genuine passion and enthusiasm, another nice guy.

Rest peacefully Mike-my condolences to his family and all who knew him.

Graham.
