Hmmm????
Owner of a multimillion dollar company and driving a twenty year old vehicle?

Owner of a company that makes hated black rifles and dies in a single no witnesses car accident at this time?
Conspiracy theorists are gonna go crazy...


Either way RIP

Sadly, had he been using his safety restraints, he might have survived RIP

I really can't imagine why anyone would go without a seat belt. ...Really hate to hear this.

Prayers for all who knew him. RIP :down:

Just started wearing mine a few years ago after getting assigned to do a risk assessment for our employees safety, you'd be shocked at what gets people killed, guns are way way down on the list. A few things that stand out from this study for me are cell phone use and driving, no seat belts whole driving. I never wore them because I dont think its the governments right to tell me what to do in my car, after researching and seeing the disparity in death and carnage between usage and non usage I started wearing them. The belts will save you but the cell phone will cause the accident in the first place, just don't use the cell its way worse than drunk driving.

RIP to Noveske, you were well liked by a lot of Americans and disliked by all the right people.

Sounds like you should be alright.

"Noveske Rifleworks would ask you to remember the passing of our founder, John Noveske, who died Friday, January 4th 2013 in an automobile accident.

John planned for all eventualities, and wanted to ensure any changes would be as seamless as possible for our customers, dealers, suppliers, employees and friends. While this will be a trying time, we do not expect a change in the day to day operations of Noveske Rifleworks. We would like to thank you for your support as we deal with our loss, and would ask that instead of flowers, you consider a donation to a cause we will announce at later date.

John was more than just the founder of Noveske Rifleworks, he was a loving husband and father, and caring friend."
