Riley Leadbetter of Winston Salem, North Carolina

[Simplyhooked PCPs]

Does anyone here remember Riley Leadbetter of Winston Salem, North Carolina? I was at this years Airgun Show in Hickory, North Carolina last month and I could not remember his name to save my life. He repaired Crosman and Daisy air guns from his basement, I'm just asking because he was 1 of 2 people that I met back in the early 80's!

I remember him, probably from Arkansas airgun shows and/or having him repair some airguns.

Yep, corresponded with him when he was trying to get a newsletter going. Way before the interweb.

Thanks for responding because I knew that there was someone around that knew him. This was years before the internet was available and all that we had back then was "by word of mouth"!

Hey,I just saw this thread about Riley. I remember him and he mentioned me in one of his airgun reports. I still have it somewhere. Seemed like a great guy.

It's been a very long time since I last mentioned this but it's still great knowing that Riley is/was never forgotten!
