Special thanks to our nearly 80 banquet attendees who made the event fun and successful! It was especially nice to see so many new names and faces this year. I met a large number of members I have corresponded with over the years but hadn't met in person.

The People's choice was really quite neat. We had about 15 guns - everything from favorite hunting partners, to family guns, to minty collectors guns and everything in between. It was a gorgeous table set full of guns. Each special in a number of ways. Thank you to everyone who shared their treasure!!! Its the membership and the involvement of the members that make this organization great!

I'd like to see the PGCA go back to Vegas for the Annual meeting next year. Its a fun gun show with lots to see and good quality guns on offer. In my mind, Vegas has enough for spouses, and we have plenty of other shooting events throughout the year. It'll be up to our BOD and I know (as they always do) they will make the decision that is best for the group.

Here's our own Jimmy Hall carrying Kermit Roosevelt's Parker VHE 20ga.

love those long barrels....charlie

A big thanks to JLoew and all the others who put this fine event together for us!!

Mills did you spend all your gun money on the slots or did you buy something new to bring back to Ga.

Good time as always. Dr. Drew helped me measure my barrels, probably would have been smarter to do before i bought the gun...LOL but absolutely no regrets. Was good to meet everyone and can't beat taking a day off work to admire fine guns especially parkers.

I bought a VH 20.

Not that I had any gun money to spend, but I have until my credit card is due to come up with the money.:whistle:

The show was very good. I noticed that there were not as many $100k plus guns in the hall as there have been in the past....

As well, this is a show you need to take your time with and carefully review each table because typically the quality and price points are high. A couple of my buddies walked right past Kermit Roosevelt's Parker VHE 20ga . Sitting with that gun was some Roosevelt ephemera and Teddy's Bowie knife which recently sold at $400k+ publicly.

A good friend of mine is another gentleman who collects skeet guns- he was walking out of the show and I bumped in to him on my way back in to the show from a stop back at the Julia booth. He expressed disappointment in the show but he walked right past the best pair of DHE skeets I've seen in a long time. I brought him over to show him the guns, introduced him to the seller and a deal was made shortly thereafter!

I havn't bought a new gun in at least a month. I am starting to go into withdraw.

The credit card police notified me of the purchase and I had to tell them it was me. Another fun moment was when the airline stewardesses started passing out barf bags before one of the flights home. Then I heard there was a tornado in our path and they expected turbulence.

Seriously, it was a great show and a great meeting and anyone who has not gone to this show owes it to themselves to give it a try. Like Josh says, there was a lot of good stuff if you took the time to look
