I am not finding any sources that give us indepth coverage of Ray Riling. The linked source is about his wife, and my searches at best find passing mention of him as someone who studied guns, but one sentence mentions at best. More often they are mentions of works published by Ray Riling Arms Books. I do not think we have enough to show he meets Academic notability 1 as a scholar who had a significant impact on his field, I found no reviews of his works, so I do not think he would pass author notability, and we clearly lack sourcing to pass GNG.
