Just saw a reference to his passing on another thread and was shocked. Only knew him from some if his articles and here but really enjoyed his knowledge and his take on things. I’m very sorry to hear he passed and getting up there myself, I know for sure that 66 is too young. Sad news!

Denis Prisbrey's final article was recently published. Henry Repeating Arms was given permission to host it on their website.
Those of you that had been in communication with him, or read the previous page, should find the content familiar. A Scout's Honor

Outstanding article!! I didn’t know Dennis from Adam but he struck me as one of the good ones just from his forum activity.

And I already knew the story. He is missed. He always did what was right, or needed, even if it impacted him negatively. - A character trait hit upon time and time again at his funeral, especially by the police officers that served with him. Always for the greater good, never for himself.

I completely missed this in the spring. Thanks FrankenMauser for posting the update. I appreciated his contributions. Hearing about his helping his neighbor is a good story to share with my neighbor with his 3 Eagle Scout boys (now young men). They happen to have and love a .22 Henry already, I'm sure they'll appreciate it even more now.
