It was a great display for sure, and I saw more people lingering longer over that glass case full of hammer guns than any other table there. The other gun that I would have LOVED to take home was the the cased VH Two Barrel Set (green felt lined case in the pictures).
Dave, are you a Colt Lightning fan? My Dad has a .38 Colt Lightning pistol, nickel with pearl handled grips. I've got it's big brother, large caliber pump action Colt Lightning Rifle. Mike

The case is made in Iowa, I had two made a couple years ago, I Think Jm Hall bought Jim Parkers cases. The cases I have are walnut with mother of pearl inlay, I had the parker emblem put on while they made the case, after all you got to have a good case for a great gun!
