Ken said that the show was a bit light on doubles as compared to years past.

I bought my first Super Fox at Winter Vegas, a long time ago. I was also assigned bar duty in a very understaffed Southwest airliner on the way home one year. The flight attendant told our group that we were "In charge" and there would be no charge for drinks we served. I have no idea how she picked our group for this duty. Maybe it was our PGCA badges.

Ahhh the good old days of propeller driven airliners

I went on Friday. A little light on American doubles, as stated, but lots of early Winchesters and Colts.
I saw Josh L working with a customer, but I didn't want to butt in just to say hi. He had some very nice guns to drool over!
All said, a pretty good show. They even had an Abe Lincoln look alike who really did look like Abe.
