Thanks for organizing this, Keavin.

My assumption is that any items displayed cannot be "For Sale". Is that correct?

Ok folks, we are now a week away from the Northern, and the paucity of responses is puzzeling. It would be nice to hear from you on a gun for display and the pertinent information so I may make up a card in the coming days.
A member asked about people handling the guns, and while I have not seen this happen, I will put up a sign indicating they are not to be handled to address any concern. Cheers,, Keavin

It has always been understood at these events that “You don’t touch another person’s gun without the explicit permission of the owner.” It is very rude to do otherwise.
I’ll have three Parkers for the PGCA tables. .

I’ll have three Parkers for the PGCA tables. Dean that is well and good but I am sure that their are folks walking the tent that are new to these events and are not familiar with your statement. All it takes is one dropped gun by someone who is not familiar with the unwritten rules to cost someone a lot of money. I think it is a good idea to at least have a sign reminding/teaching folks to not touch the guns. JMHO

Oh I agree Steve… I wasn’t saying this shouldn’t be done but just pointing out how is used to be… but like so many things in our society today, politeness seems to have gone the way of the Do-Do bird…
