From a distance those pre-war Ts can look a bit like a post-war R. I guess I need to get me some of that "magic." Is that dovetail bracket on the front tube of Skidrow's T a 99 mount or was it adapted from something else?

Jeff, Finding anything isn't rocket science. The internet is your friend, "sometimes".

There were 3 companies making rifle models back then and at least 2 made 99s, probably all 3.

The pistols are factory nickel. Nothing wrong with a toy though. smile

Thanks for the pics and posting them Rory.
SavageupNorth has some top shelf rifles as do some others. How many have a RMEF rifle and a 1899D/musket?!
dsr1935's ammo display was pretty special as well. I learned a thing or two.
One can read all kinds of stuff, but having a piece in hand to look at is invaluable.
Thanks to everyone who traveled and brought displays, helped with setup/tear down, door prizes, snack food, security, cooking, donations and more.

Rick, thank YOU for hosting us. It's a lot of effort and time to invest, and we all appreciated it very much!

It's great seeing everybody every couple of years, and meeting new folks and learning new things. I think every single person there brought interesting stuff, just didn't have time to look at everything.
