Default Calgary Gun Show

Had a great weekend guest Chris Dawe with me at the Calgary Gun Show. We had his shingle out at my tables showing his fine workmanship.

Had to lay down on my couch to view them, but it looks like it was a nice show - love the table banner!

That is my Fox custom 100% complete. Laying down is a Parker grade 2 16 ga hammer gun with upgraded wood, Rigby 12 ga, LC Smith Specialty 12 ga and model 21 12 gauge.

Darn it, I tried to make it down to Calgary for the show, but my F150 broke down Thursday night. Easter weekend is no time to break down in small town Alberta. Just got it into a repair shop this morning. The only time I've seen a Parker grade higher than a DH was an AH at the Calgary show about 10 years ago. I would have liked to meet you, Chris, and Mr. Peck.

Mr. Dawe needs to make a trip to one of our gatherings in the U.S. I guess the big problem is bringing some of his gun into the country along with him for a first hand inspection. His work is first rate!

He'll miss the old place...

Relocating has its pluses and its minuses.
