I will be attending this show for the first time, any tips on the best place to park ect? Any chance on getting in on Friday? I will have a Parker Snow Musket with the Miller conversion for sale.

Bill Murphy usually posts parking info, maybe he will see this but if not, here is where you can park.

I think I have the basic info correct. Just behind the show is a Metro train station parking lot. It's free. Park there, find the pedestrian crossing over the railroad tracks, the back gate is open, walk around the side of the Fairground building to the front where you will find the booth to buy tickets and enter the building.

Chuck, I think I told you my table was M27, but it is M24.
I couldn't find any PGCA guys at close up time, so perhaaps tomorrow we can have dinner together. One member bought some syrup, but there's a dozen or so more under the table. VERY few Parkers, and what there was, was riden hard and hung up set. Oh, Chuck, there's a half-frame VH against the front wall near the back exit doors. Not my cup of tea at 3595.

I hear (from over on the Fox forums) that a lady walked in on Saturday with a graded (GH or DH) 28 ga. They claim that the lady was soon surrounded by the Parker folks!!

Anyone have any details on this (the gun, not the lady!)?

Since there will a good representation of fellow PGCA members at this show is there anyone interested in getting together Fri. or Sat. night for dinner? There is a fine restaurant just across the street who happens to be one of my good customers and I'd be happy to set something up for our group. If so give me a head count.

Daryl, I seldom hang around after the show, but Kevin stays over, so let me know what place you are referring to and I'll change my plans. Edgar, no one ever brings anything by our table, even though it is the first row in the show. There are a couple of notable exceptions, though.
