The theme for the PGCA tent display at the Southern will be "28 Gauge Beauties!". This theme has repeatedly surfaced by several Members so let's make a run at it. The requirements will simply be Parker 28 Ga. Guns in any configuration. As always we will make room on the table for “MY FAVORITE PARKER” if at all possible so feel free to bring your favorite Parker.
All PGCA members and even non-members are invited to display. I have created a display card that can be affixed to each gun. If you would be so kind as to drop me a line at Keavsranch@netzero.net with the info on your Parker I will prepare the card. Please include the grade, gauge, DOM, frame size, and barrel length. Possibly a short comment and include your name or not. One thing I have noticed in the tent is that folks are continually inquiring as to "who owns that gun". If you do choose to put your name on the card my hope is that it will allow attendees to identify the owner and create some dialog with them thereby generating additional interest and certainly sharing the vast knowledge of the PGCA membership. Adding your name or not is your decision. Also feel free to bring any other Parker memorabilia along for display, all items welcomed with space permitting. The Tent display will close at the end of Saturday.
As in the past the PGCA will provide the tables, covers, and miscellaneous display items. We will do our best to be certain that no guns are left behind each evening but ultimately that responsibility will fall upon the owner. Looking forward to hearing from some of you with display guns and also to seeing some old friends again. Any questions give me a call or send a text.
In closing I would like to acknowledge and thank Randy Roberts for the many years he managed this effort, and his support in making the transition, much appreciated!
See you at the Southern,
