No kidding.

From a show standpoint, I guess he was one of the go-to guys to get them some of the more rare or crazy weapons to show off. I've always enjoyed the cocky host.

So...."Who Done It"?
And..."Why"?
Anyone suspect suicide? They don't say exactly where the entry wound was.
Back of the head, or in the temple?

I'm betting someone handling this, knows already.
Maybe giving the family some courtesy time.
Shouldn't be too hard to clear up, unless it was paid for.
Time will tell.

It wasn't FPSRussia himself - it was his producer.

Very unsettling, I have to wonder if the motive wasn't robbery but to put an end to the very pro-gun show. With all the calls for disarming us this is a high profile incident.

Let's take a look at the evidence,

1. FPSRussia - Sounds Russian...Check
2. Guns, lots of Guns, hard to get guns....Check
3. Popular show = Money, Youtube money is a nice chunk of change.....Check
4. One dead Producer(RIP btw)..... Add the above together.

Perhaps his dealings have more to do with things more then anything else.

just saying.

Take it to the PWEC if you want to discuss the politics. Otherwise say RIP or some such thing.

Maybe it belongs there anyway, you can't have a discussion on anything here without someone trying to turn it into a mud slinging contest. It's not tinfoil politics, it's a legitimate line of thinking. Was anything stolen? Money, Guns, anything? What is the motivation? Jealousy? You got to ask All the questions, even the ones that sound far fetched.

I was thinking that from reading that article this guy procured a lot of the guns for the show, maybe he got mixed up with the wrong type of people (grey market or something)?

That would seem to be more likely than some anti-gun hitman shooting a youtube show producer (talk about ethical issues there)... but who knows it could be anything, hopefully the cops will get some good leads and be able to find out who did it and why.

The article I read said that it did not appear that any of the weapons in his shop/office were used, nor did a robbery appear to have occurred at the site.

Sorry for his family.
