To those attending this weekend, I hope you all have a great time.
We had a blast again this year in Pa. Hoping you all have a similar experience.
I would have liked to attend this weekend, but too many irons the fire.
Be safe and enjoy.

Yes indeed. Were it not held in a galaxy far away I would have loved to attend, if for no other reason than to see how much Rory has aged (hopefully less than me)!!

I think I see 10 long tube scopes, that can't be Gene, I didn't think he had that many 99's?

Man, I wish I was there. I have a good 10 cord of wood I have to get split before I have hernia surgery on Nov. 7th. That's a long time, but, I'm getting old and slow.

Just got home, The grey table cover was a friends and mine, he had 5 1899's laying across the table on the end and a Remington Model 30 factory chambered in 300 Savage, mine are after the Remington. I had my 22HP with a Malcolm side mount laying across the table and the rest length wise. Two just got delivered a week ago Wednesday - both 1895 project guns, one has much later 1899 wood - that whole gun is very rough, it's nearest the edge of the table.
That is the extent of my lever guns other than a really rough 1899; seven 1899's, 5 with vintage scopes and three 1895's - one half octagon and two projects with replaced barrels.

Thanks to Rick for hosting a great time and (2nd) Rick for helping put it together! Incredible what one learns at these fests. The combined knowledge is quite impressive. And it was all fun, too!

Absolutely, yes! Thank you Rick for hosting the amazing event! There were some VERY nice pieces there, and at least one that I am positive that I’ll never see another. Very fun!

Rick really did a great job, I can't imaging the amount of time and effort involved since he not only organized everything he also set up a very large, very well organized display. I found getting my poorly organized group ready was quit a job.
