Noveske Rifleworks & FPSRussia
« on: January 14, 2013, 02:15:37 PM »
"On Friday, January 4, the owner of Noveske Rifleworks, 36-year-old John Noveske, was killed in a single-vehicle accident on Highway 260 in Oregon."

"Only a day earlier, the lifeless body of 32-year-old Keith Ratliff was found at FPS Industries in Franklin County, Ga., just outside of Carnesville. He had been shot once in the head, according to the Georgia Bureau of Investigation."

Old news. FPs russia's channel was pretty cool to watch if only for the explosions. Hopefully it wont affect the youtube videos much. Still sad.

Knew about John Noveseke, but no idea Russia bought it.im not running to the tin foil hat making convention just yet, but I want to know detail about Noveseke's accident (toxicology report, road conditions, ect.). Russia is a complete mystery. Not speak I'll of the dead, but he always seemed like a prick. Maybe he pissed off the wrong guy. The irony would be if both these deaths were linked to radical anti gun vigilantes.

Edit: didn't read the article before comment. This seems very odd... By the by, I'm sure that quite a few people here are NRA members. Evike also donates a good bit to the NRA. Are they next? Watch your backs out there, guys.

Didn't realize 10 days was old news.  Apologies if you already knew about it.  Was news to me.

Yeah it's somewhat old news lol.

The host of FPS Russia wasn't murdered, it was his manager. He was also the dude that got a hold of the guns for the show. I've heard mixed reports, but he was definitely murdered and none of his things were stolen. Some people were debating that maybe he made some bad business deals and had a hit put on him.....

Noveske I haven't heard much of, besides it was a car accident.

Seems pretty sketchy seeing how it happened right after death threats, shootings, etc. The FPS Russia (Keith Rutliff) was sad but John Noveske was even worse. Novekes death seems pretty fishy
