Default Las Vegas Gun Show-Jan 18,19,20, 2013

Anybody planning to attend the show in Vegas? Allan Swanson and I are summoning the energy, trying to borrow some seed money find cheap seats for retiired folks and wondered if any members are thinking about it. Paul Dorsa from California is going to attend and we may plan to dine.

Hello Art ,I won't be going to the Vegas Show ,but wanted to say ,Last evening after working all day laying Tile in the Laundry room ,I sat down to relax for a few minutes before heading to bed . I received my DGJ today and found your latest article ," Working Guns at Pineridge Grouse Camp , I really enjoyed reading through the article and reading about the guns each member uses and a bit of provenance on each one , I enjoyed it so much I went back over and reread most of it ! Your 20 Ga.VHE is a Beauty ! Thanks for the great read ! Best ; Russ

I plan to attend - have the plane ticket and hotel already reserved.

Will there be a Parker table set up like in past years?

This show gives us a chance to meet PGCA members from the western half of the country that often cannot make the trip to our Annual meeting or the Southern Side by Side.
This meeting has drawn dozens of PGCA members in the past. In addition, several years ago one of the highlights of the meeting was the NRA exhibit, where the only thing they had on their table was the three Invincibles. That was a year or so before they brought them to our annual meeting.
In any case I hope many members show up - so far 1 each from Maine, Vermont, Massachusetts and California. More ??
This really is a fine show for those who have never attended.

Hi Art,

I'll attend Friday and Saturday. Please let me know if there will be any PGCA get together?

Respectfully,
Mark

Some of us who are PGCA members will be there, but doing the A.H. Fox Collectors Association table.

I remember about a decade ago when a gaggle of us, led by Mr. Swanson, piled into a strech limo and went to dinner at Smith & Wollensky's. Great time had by all!!

I will be there Saturday for sure but I am not sure about Friday. I do not know how I am going to find all you guys from what I remember it is rather chaotic there. I remember last year going to the A.H. Fox table asking for the Parker guys and was asked joking of coarse what I would want with a Parker.

Although my plans did not materialize to attend the LV show, would suggest some members visit with Paul Dorsa and others attending from the west.
I expect a contingent from California will be on hand.
