Default Well? What did you bring home from the Southern

Hello fellow members,
If you are willing to share I would love to see what you acquired at the Southern this year. Guns, memorabilia, clothing, really anything you feel is cool.

I love some good pictures too so don't be shy.

Thank you in advance
Matt

The only things I bought were two Lefever Arms catalog reproductions.
And as I was driving home on Sunday, I found out that I came in third for the "Uncle Dan Lefever Cup". So... my plaque is currently in the mail to me.

Way to go Sara. Looks like that practice at Drake did some good.
It was fun shooting with you there and I'm looking forward to Hausmann's. We need you on the Lefever team against those Fox guys. Bring your A game.

Daryl,

Thank you for the help at Drake. I really appreciated it, and had a great time. I think I got a bit lucky coming in third for the Cup, but I'll certainly go with it! I will definitely be at Hausmann's, and am looking forward to the Fox-Lefever Challenge (even if I'm just watching!).

The best thing I got was Wilbur Parker's patent book, but I also got a lot of other cool stuff, including gun racks, shooting vest, enough RST shells to start a war, snap caps and tons of other stuff. I came back with one fewer gun, but have a replacement on the way if the seller will cooperate. I have learned to not count my chickens before they hatch

It really is a treasure and has a great provenance too.

Hey Matt, hope all is well on your end of the planet, same for Dean. Tell him I said hey please. I never bought a gun at the Southern and I believe it was my best to date. I have lost count of the PGCA folks I met this year. These acquaintances and friendships going forward will be insignificant compared to a purchase. Don't get me wrong I could be happy with a long barreled small bore to ��. Take care.
