I thought the show was good fun. There were lots of Parkers to look at and many interesting guns in general. The quality was somewhat down from past years in terms of super high end guns but there were plenty of nice guns to look at and choose from. Dealers I spoke with reported good sales overall, with one or two saying it was one of the best shows they have had in the past 10 years. My favorite Parker of the show was John Puglisi's AAHE 12ga gun which looks like a beautiful original gun. My favorite guns of the show were the near mint cased pair of Remington revolvers (Sn 1&2) made for Ulysses S. Grant offered for sale for $2,000,000. They came directly from the Grant family!
