The owner of POF was killed last night in a car crash here in Phoenix. Sounds like he rolled his Jeep on a long fairly empty road. Im trying to contact my buddies that work that precinct to see if they worked the wreck and have any more info.

Dammit. Frank was a good dude who always was thinking outside of the box.

It happened where a friend of mine lives and saw the whole thing by chance. The idiot that made the out of nowhere u-turn put him in a dangerous position and he rolled by accident trying to get out of danger because of that reckless driver.

That's what I was trying to figure out from my friends. I've heard conflicting reports of another car involved.

I think that they may also have been friends too. I asked him to give my respects as well, and to get me any swag to show my support and I'll pay for whatever.

Are you located here in AZ too?

I did no know who he was until he passed. However, you can measure a man by what strangers say about him after he is gone. Sounds like he was a good one. My prayers go out to his friends and family.

Won't take long for the conspiracy folks to notice a trend and link this with the death of Noveske.

Sad that it is usually some idiot who gets everyone else killed.

That's too bad. Every interaction I had with Frank (all at SHOT show when I used to attend) was positive. My condolences to his family.

Loved his designs, particularly the FAL influence. My sample of 1 was one of the best .308 rifles I tried. The loss of his innovation diminishes the industry.

I am sorry for his family for this terrible loss. Happens every day, and that sucks. It has happened in my family so I am familiar with the shock of something like this.

I am also sorry for his employees. Huge loss for them as well. Not to mention that tragedies like this often destroy companies.

Damn, that’s sad to hear. He was a friend to many in the shooting industry. RIP Frank. You will be missed.
