We will have a large display of Parker shotguns and memorabilia at the NRA convention in St Louis on April 13-15. Expect to see about 30-40 nice Parkers of various grades and gauges.

Thanks to members with raffle ticket sales and to the generosity of dealers and PGCA members such as Jim Julia and Jack Puglisi for helping make our participation in these events possible.

Bruce, it's John Puglisi.

Eric, it was Jack who was so instrumental in helping in making our participation possible.

Not to detract from John's superb job of carrying on the Puglisi's Gun Emporium enterprise, but Bruce was correct in his statement.

John Puglisi has a significant heritage and has our best hopes for successfully continuing the fine gun business.

Nobody has given more money, thousands of dollars, to the PGCA than Jim Julia.

Both are fine and valued PGCA members who have done much for the Parker collecting community.

Dean, I took it in the wrong tense, meaning today and that was why I said what I did, I'm sorry that I took the Bruce's statement the wrong way, Jack was a very close friend and so is John. Eric

I knew what you meant... just wanted to clarify.

The PGCA will have a 10x20 booth at the NRA convention. Please be sure to stop by and visit if you will be attending. As with any of our events, they never happen without our hardworking volunteers.

Special thanks to those that have and continue to step forward to support our organization through the sharing of their time, talents, and, treasure. That's where the rubber meets the road with the PGCA.

We are going to really put on the show for this one and will have some of the most famous Parkers there. I'm at the Tulsa gun show now if there are any other Parker people around. Hanging around with Rip Watson and George Caswell on row 28 upper level.

Sounds like a great display is coming together. The PGCA's 10x20 booth will feature Parkers of all eras and gauge and grade.

For those that are fortunate to attend the convention, please stop by and say hello to the members that are donating their time to man the event.

Oh yeah- dont forget to check out the raffle gun and pick up a few tickets!

Bruce, How was the Tulsa show? I wanted to make it but youth turkey was open and took the boys out. Think I'll try to make one day of NRA show if possible.
