I decided that I NEED to build a GG. I have a set of D&E plans on the way but the RG-G plans are no longer for sale. If anyone has a set that they would sell I would be interested.I have read that the RG-G is the way to go if you actually want a functioning gun. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Paul Moore of Aguilar, CO died in a housefire this past Thursday.
Who?
He's the gunsmith who developed the 22 LR or 22 Short Gatling Gun. He had a heck of a time with the feeding b/c of the rimfire bullet and it took him over a year to get it to work reliably. Anyway, I was told the PoPo seized his truck because he had difficulty operating it (he was no spring chicken), took his two dogs (unable to properly care for them) and all his guns.
Besides the miniature Gatling guns, he also made flintlocks or percussion cap long rifles. His stocks were unique in that they had facets on them
Paul also participated in Trinidad State Gunsmithing School's Art of the Gun where notable gun makers presented their pieces.
He must have had black powder in the house and I was told that when his house went up, there were several explosions. He burned to death in the fire.
Horrible way to go.

I saw on the RG-G website that the designer passed away and that they are no longer selling the plans. There is no way to contact anyone through the website to see if they may offer them in the future. That is why I posted here to inquire about possibly buying them from someone else.

They are on places on the internet, bootleg copies.

I haven't been able to find them anywhere. I'd feel better about buying them than just copying them.
