Ray told a good story, but was very frequently wrong on a huge number of details on a large number of facts. And despite multiple attempts at politely pointing out where he was wrong, he would always come back with the same misinformation time and time and time again.
As an example, I don't know how many times we tried to point out that there weren't any pre-1960 Savage 99's made in 284 since the 284 wasn't introduced until 1964. But give him six months and he'd be back again talking about how those lever safety 284's like the several he'd had were the best ones to buy. Especially with 26" barrels. Sigh. And six months later he'd say it again.
I don't think he ever maliciously lied or tried to mislead people, but the man didn't know what he didn't know.
Now, on the AR thread.. can't see that he did anything except try to maliciously mislead people by saying he was communicating with people he wasn't.
