Oh I really hope that the Pakistani knife makers, jerky sellers, numchuck people and survivalist manual types don’t give up!

I enjoyed meeting and talking with you, Mark. I saw some pretty nice doubles at this show, and one is headed home with me. We were shaken awake early this morning by an earthquake, rounding out an eventful trip(!)

A young shooter noticed my Parker and said "wow, nice gun" at the gun club this weekend. I think there is hope.

I've been selling more Parkers to the under 50 crowd in the last year than the over 50 crowd by 2:1 or maybe even 3:1. Younger guys don't attend shows as aggressively as older ones- and why should they? The greatest gun show in the world is online nowadays.

In other news, for my birthday, my wife bought me a leather rig for my circa 1898 Colt Single Action Army.

I was excited today. I teach Emergrncy residents how to handle eye emergencies. My new resident is from western New York, and was asking me questions about all the upland prints in my office. Turns out he shoots a JP Sauer Royal 12 ga SXS. He may even go with me to the Vintage Shoot at Hunting Hills this Saturday

Many manufactures made more Black guns and many distributors and dealers bought more than they normally would have. They all anticipated the Presidential election would turn out differently and they would sell them all because of panic buying. Whoops!
