Default Las Vegas gun show

I'll be posting some pictures of the show and some fabulous guns displayed when I get home. I'll probably do this on Tuesday. Mills was also taking pictures.

Thanks Chuck. we all had a great time, It was bright lights big city for me. I have never been to a show that big. A few things I wish I hadn't left behind.
Glad I talked my good buddy into buying that 8 gauge parker hammer gun.

Dean gets first dibs on photos for Parker Pages, but I will post a few here too. It was a great time. The highlight was putting faces with online names and visiting with friends, old and new.

Some of our members brought some fabulous Parkers, both for the People's Choice award and for display on our show table. My favorite was a Columbian Exposition Parker. There was an early 8 gauge, a 20 gauge lifter, some back actions, and really more than I can list here. One of our members became the proud owner of an 8 gauge toplever hammer gun. A VH 20 is following me home, along with some Parker tools and memorabilia.

Julia's display was phenomenal. They had a 3 gauge which dwarfed the LC Smith 8 gauge next to it. Puglisi had two long rows of guns which included a lot of great Parkers.

All in all a great weekend

Wish I could have been there!
Any idea of the asking prices on the 8ga hammer guns or were they just on display?
Were there any Parker 8 ga hammerless guns seen?

I am not sure the price on the 8's. I saw an LC Smith hammerless 8 in great condition but no Parker hammerless 8's.
