Gents, July or September works for me, I will be in Fla for the winter the rest of those dates. hope we can work something out what say you fellows, I am leaving this morning going back to V.A. I will check the site tonight. Gary

July has always been a bit slow at OGCA and it is also rather short notice. I'm not trying to influence anyone's decision, just putting in my two cents. I am still paying dues and haven't been to a show for several years.

Thats me too Bill september I dont think will be a problem remember vintigers 26th? Ihave not been in two or three years. would be fun Guess I would tempt a certain person with a DH 20 damascus no on second thought I will leave it home. was up in NY state visiting with Dayrl Middelbrook went to Ilion, factory Delgrego Turnbull Rstto see Morris was a hoot.

"Guess I would tempt a certain person with a DH 20 damascus no on second thought I will leave it home"

That's the last gun I need for my collection Gary.....! Remember when you needed a 8 ga P grade fluid steel gun for your collection.... Tell you what I'll display all of the D grades flluid and damascus and you just bring your 20 DH damascus and drop it in the display to finish out the collection..

From my experience, the January show is well-attended.

John I will be in Fla Dec to April

Eric, I sold the gun you need four year ago, Do not drool when you read this! This is from the letter I recieved from Kirby. Serial # 169817 was ordered on August 11 1914 and shipped on November14, 1914 to Keesler Hardware Co of Salisbury N.C. According to Order book 91 it was a DHE hammerless 20ga. it featured damascus barrels with a length of 24" I might can find the name of the person I sold it to in my records if you want me to look I found out later they only made 1-2 with 24" barrels in Damascus

Eric also the gun was in pristine condition the guy at the hardware store bought it for his son but for whatever reason he did not give it to him. I researched this gun salisbury historical Assc several years ago
