This is a shock; terrible news.

He was my friend, a real hunter..... a man. Think of him when you carry a gun behind a dog.

Peace and comfort to all that loved him. If there is any way to contact his family, please let us know.

This might be a silly question, but did he send it to you, or did you ever meet him and take it yourself? I only ask because I think a framed print of that for his family would be a wonderful gift, if they don't already have it of course.

I'm definitely going to make a print copy of it


Kid,
We exchanged correspondence and some photos over the years but I am not sure this was one of them. Geno posted photos of his hunting adventures, dogs, guns and friends from time to time on this BBS so it could have come to me that way. I will check back through my stuff.
I took the train from Helsinki to Moscow via St. Petersburg and we met for zukuski "small bites" of black caviar with toast & butter, pancakes , egg. onion, black coffee and vodka. Very lively and enjoyable conversation, we discussed -what else- guns, dogs, shooting and women. laugh .... but way- way to short. Took the Red Arrow on to Moscow.



Gennadi Charcot and friends had a rewarding day afield, NW Russia.
Rest in Peace Gennadi.




Good Shooting

Years ago I posted a request for information regarding a Belgian maker which was responded to with ignorant replies of JABC. Later Geno posted a link to littlegun.be and I found my first legitimate info.

It would be nice if someone with the requisite skills would post a link to this thread on the site in Russia that Dave cited in the original post. Geno's family might be comforted by how highly regarded he was on the other side of the planet.

I loved his thoughts on the red dogs and will miss his presence.

Hard to say more about Geno than what others have stated. He was very knowledgable and always willing to share his wealth of info to any and all. He will be sorely missed.

I am surprised no-one has mentioned the live camera that always showed the wild boars feeding. If I recall correctly, Geno was the one to link all of us to that camera. Very cool.

Rest In Peace...my friend.

You are right about the cameras. I had that link in my favorites and had a problem with my computer. No longer have it, if anyone has that link, I would appreciate it.

There were other sites once you got in, one nice site was of eagles.
As someone said before, he never spoke bad of someone and always had something nice to day.
It would be nice if his family could see how much he will be missed here, and naturally there.

Prayers and blessings to the family.

That setter could pass for a show dog.

Pete, thanks so much for the pictures. How could a guy like that just up and die?? What a guy and what great Red Setters. My Dad raised imported Milson O'Boy red setters back in the fifties and I hunted over them until I was in high school. I loved those dogs so much. I will write about Bill Wise and our discussions about Geno when I get time. I am just sick about Geno. Bill Murphy

Isn't it ironic that I had to learn of his passing via an American forum? Don't go online too often now, and that's about the only gun-related place I visit. Shocked. Speechless. RIP.
