They are STILL out there!

Seen and/or heard about at guns shows in NOVA today: 28 gauge VHE, 30" straight stock DHBP, DT, SFE; 12 ga. DHE 34" straight stock vent rib DT, BTFE, 20 ga. DHE vent rib 30" PG, SKBP, SFE, 16 ga. GHE 0 frame 28" PG DHBP. All either for sale, recently sold and coming up for resale again, or seen walking out the door. $4.00 + per gallon gas be damned, get out of bed and get out amongst 'em!

[Dean Romig]

And you bought them all??

[tom tutwiler]

Must have all been in the Richmond area (perhaps Maryland). I missed all of those or I'd have been there for sure.

[Bill Murphy]

I think Kevin attends the Virginia Gun Collectors show. However, he said "shows".

[tom tutwiler]

Yep. Missed that one and its all of 25 miles from my house. Daughter Bday today, so I couldn't get back to it.

[Kevin McCormack]

Yeah; 'shows' plural. I couldn't stand the thought of missing another nice pre-War A-5, so I went to both! No joy at either but I had a real nice drive down "Flak Alley" between Quantico and Richmond (I-95) in the rain. Lots of other people had the same idea so I had plenty of company. All in all, as Tony OK's great album lyrics from the '70s put it, "Sort of like carving a turkey; kinda like mowing the lawn." More fun than either of those, for sure!
