I'm sad to hear that. I have enjoyed his videos and marvelled at his skill many times.

Re: Bob Munden passed away.
I saw him in person once. He did a show at some sort of event here in St. Louis, in
the late seventies or early eighties. We were able to stand within just a few feet of him while he did
show. He was an amazing gun handler, especially to a young teen such as myself. He made
lasting impression.

Re: Bob Munden passed away.
I really liked him. He'll be missed. Did his transplant not take? I heard fairly recently that he was recovering. This was a surprise to me.

Mark (Jack the Dog) has a Colt that was consigned by the family, with some history.

Re: Bob Munden passed away.
I've seen the Stan Lee Superhumans show and some of the Bob Munden Youtube clips, and I'd guess his legend will live on for many years to come.
I'd be happy to have just a fraction of his handgun skills.
My condolences to his family

Re: Bob Munden passed away.
After watching that video i posted i have more appreciation and respect for MR Munden.
I talked to him on the phone once for an hour and he did a action job on my Colt SAA 44 SP.
Here`s a picture of that gun, wish i could of met him in person.
Perfect is all i can say.

Re: Bob Munden passed away.
Met him at End of Trail back when it was in Norco. Fantastic showman and very nice guy.
We lost a good one.

Re: Bob Munden passed away.
I saw him shoot once in New York at an outdoor show. He shot a balloon in front and back so fast I only heard 1 shot. Video Cameras were just out and they played the scene back in slow motion and only then was I sure he was the real deal.
Then I saw he not only was fast but accurate as well!
I am praying for his family for their loss.
