Bruce and Charlie created a great display for a couple years. Mark Vollanger did a lot of the ground work here in those years, but is now in California. I miss his organizational skills and hustle. I'd be happy to put in some time to help out, but don't have the knowledge or the guns to make a display. For that, no one I've seen out here at the PCGA table comes close to Bruce.

I've been told that this show is the third best (after Las Vegas and Tulsa) in the country. It is certainly the best in Colorado: the others are largely 'black gun' events.
