Default L.C. Smith Display at Southern SXS

Every year, the L.C. Smith folks put up a display of some of their fine guns. The light was not the greatest, but here are some photos.

It was suggested that Parker do a similar display next year and I think we should.

Has anyone ever had Rst print up any boxes with the Parker logo I would buy a case or so if it was done . When I say logo I mean like the sticker we get with the membership renewal .

Not that I'm aware of. We applied some PGCA stickers to some boxes of RST ammo we gave as door prizes at the Annual Meeting a couple of years ago but I don't know if anyone had contacted Morris about actually printing up Parker Shotgun boxes.

Seems to be an 8 in the 5th picture but it doesn't appear to be either of those on the LCS Collectors Assoc 2015 calendar .

I do not recall an 8g smith.

I agree that Parker could have had more guns on display on our side. I did my part. As well as a couple others, but it could have been much better. It didn't help that Gary was tied up setting up his fantastic display at Ruth's.

"It didn't help..."??? Strange statement...

Is Gary somehow obligated to display his guns in the tent?

Brian did his part and we will make sure Brian has room for his display next year. I am thinking we could get two racks for a display and do a theme like waterfowl guns, upland guns, highlight a grade or era.
