Default 68 Photos of Hausmann's Hidden Hollow

As always Ernie Hausmann and family hosted perhaps the best side by side rendezvous of the year! There was splendid camaraderie of like minded fellows, two separate and equally outstanding courses of fire, side games, and of course the dealers and private collectors offering deals too good to pass up! Even the lunch wagon served up sandwiches with plenty of good quality meat.

The Parker Brothers were gathered.


















Tom’s consecutively numbered GH Parkers with 24” barrels!




The sons of Ansley Herman Fox were also there!















The LC Smiths





LC Smith Chain Damascus 10 and 8 Gauge Guns!




…and the great, great grandson of DM Lefever!

Then there was the shooting…














































Needless to say that spirits were high throughout the event!

It finally dawned on me why I shot so poorly on Saturday after a pretty fair performance on Friday with my 28.

It had rained before we shot on Saturday and the floors of every shooting box were slippery as ice and it was difficult to stay on balance and shoot well too... yeah, that's my story and I'm stickin' to it.


By the way, Thank you Mark, for showing us that picture of Bob's wonderful rendition of Rich's GSP "Gunner" !! That will be one Parker to see when it is done and will surely be Rich's all-time favorite "go to" gun.
