aznriptide859 Posted February 25, 2016 Report Share Posted February 25, 2016 http://www.popularairsoft.com/ian-patrick-killbucketsmr-minigun-bivens-dies-age-53 Truly a shocking loss for the airsoft community. His heavy weapon creations were very iconic in the 2000s, and I believe he gave away his designs for anyone to make similar weapons. I remember reading all his projects on ASR back when I just started airsoft. He will be deeply missed. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to post Share on other sites
ED-SKaR Posted February 25, 2016 Report Share Posted February 25, 2016 Sad news. I'm sure his designs will pop up every now and again, though, he'll be remembered by some. Link to post Share on other sites

jv83 Posted February 25, 2016 Report Share Posted February 25, 2016 I bought an airsharp M1919 from Ian back in the day. It got severely mangled during shipping so it sits in a box waiting for when I can restore and customize it. I remember when his ex wife got ill and he gave up his business and posted his CADs drawings and designs for all to use. So sad to hear about this, saw his last post on FB . RIP, my thoughts go out to his family and friends. Link to post Share on other sites

sir naggedalot Posted February 26, 2016 Report Share Posted February 26, 2016 Great guy and one of very few :0( Very few people give anything away these days for free and may his designs be his everlasting legacy! RIP Ian Patrick Bivens Link to post Share on other sites
paranoiddroid Posted March 2, 2016 Report Share Posted March 2, 2016 He was a real nice guy to deal with, his free designs were pretty good his paid for pack was an amazing resource of cad ready plans. I hope people who have the designs will make them availible to keep his work going, I bought a set off him not long back. Link to post Share on other sites
