Bill,
When I was there both the business and Joe’s health were in decline. The business was closed at the time and I believe there was a law suite or something going on as well. Many of the older rifles that were at the shop (when I was there) belonged to a fellow I knew (know) who lived in OK and they were showing signs of neglect. One rifle from that collection I have and I know where his fathers double (a 20-gauge Hoffman) is but beyond that I have no idea what happened to the shop and the contents.
