Is he still alive? I remember seeing occasional issues when I did some part-time work for a gun nut in the eighties, but I lost track after that.

Wiki says he went to the "Big Gun-Club in the Sky" in 1984.

Well done remembering the name after twenty-odd, mind you!

I mentioned his "article" on dinosaur hunting in my Professor Challenger RPG back in '95, so it isn't like I've never thought of him.

I tried googling this article - it sounded hilarious - but it doesn't seem online.

I should think 1995 would be about the point I first heard of him.
