Default Baltimore Show March 19-20

Drop by and see Kevin and me at the Baltimore Show this weekend. We are at tables B-4 and B-5. There are always PGCA notables in attendance, usually including our two recent leaders, our Research Committee, and many others. I am not at liberty to reveal the theme of Kevins educational display, but you will love it. As always, if you come Saturday, park in the transit lot on the opposite side of the tracks from the show building. Park as close to the tracks as possible, walk across the tracks to the fairground gate, which will be open. Your walk will be shorter and you will have way less trouble getting out of the show at closing time.

A person interested in Parker shooters at reasonable prices should have been there today. Unfortunately, I am not able to take advantage, so the good shooters will be available in the morning.

Bill,

I'm looking for a 12ga underlifter, preferably grade 3 or higher. I'll be there around 9am. Keep an eye out and keep me in mind.

Outrageous guns changed hands today. Others were seen, but I don't know if they sold. There will surely be a few neat guns left for the rest of us tomorrow.

I saw a nice Parker 10 gauge that I liked at the $2500 mark but some "dogooder" saw fit recently to put a new Pachmeyer pad on it !

Saw a couple nice Parker 16's but the GH I have is enough for what I wish to do !

Also got alot of helpfull information from the guys at tables B4 and B5 !

Almost forgot I saw a really nice Ernst Kerner combo gun that was 16 and 10.75 by something .

I already have a Ernst Kerner single barrel rifle with a period scope in 6.5x52R !
Which in all actuallity is nothing more then a 25-35 WIN .

So I was thinking this might be a nice addition to my euro gun collection !

I'd really like to attend the Baltimore Show once with about a 250 G's in my pocket I could blow at will

Gotta say I enjoyed talking with you guys early saturday morning !

And your display was quite nice and informative !

I wasn't aware Mr. Murphy was an 8 gauge fan !
Perhaps I now have a reason to return for 2012 !

Dave, the show committee always has their pro photograph the award-winning displays, but the photos always seem to go into the "Black Hole of Award Winners of Shows Past."

Morris Baker took his usual 5,000 shots while at the show; hopefully he got one of us!
