We lost a good one yesterday. I know he threaded many barrels for people on here. He was a great guy and a master of his craft. He leaves behind a wife and two small kids. So sad. ![[Linked Image]](https://texashuntingforum.com/forum/pics/userpics/2024/09/full-22700-431454-img_0916.jpeg)

This is terrible news. Morgan did multiple barrels for me and was always a great guy to deal with. Sorry for your loss. Prayers up for the family.

Terrible news for sure. I've done business with him for a long time, he was one of my first website customers from THF. I've had several barrels threaded from him and even sat in his shop "garage" when he was first getting up and going shooting the [censored] with him while he knocked a barrel out for me while I waited.
Wonder how/what happened he wasn't very much older than me I don't think. Way too young for sure. RIP Sir!

He did machining for several silencer manufacturers too. This will have much more of an impact on the industry than just citizens getting their barrels threaded.

That is terrible news. Prayers for his family. The firearms community lost a good one, and I have a feeling that his family lost a great one.

Sad day for sure, he did a number of barrels for me over the years!
I am still looking for the perfect apron, one with reinforced knee areas would be perfect. Some people live an entire lifetime & wonder if they ever made a difference in the world, a veteran doesn't have that problem. Reagan

No words!! Absolutely great guy…prayers up for his family. I’m up for supporting his family in some way. Not a fan of “go fund me” but would be happy to support something from a more united THF front if others are interested. What say the group? Thoughts or ideas? I never met Morgan in person as his business had grown so much the shipping preference had already been effect. I did have a call or two and many emails regarding my need for his services.
