Default Updated Opening Page...

In keeping with the theme of PGCA "notables" - I've updated the opening page here:

http://parkerguns.org/

With the "man who wielded the PGCA Hammer" for many years....

Art, thank you!

John

A great picture of a delightful man. Thanks John. Looks like he just threw a clay pigeon under the tent.

John, Thanks for keeping this theme going! Art took the raines at a very difficult time in the history of the PGCA and did a great job growing this organization in the face of adversity.

Besides I love reading his stories in the Ruff Grouse Society Magazine and most recently in the Double Gun Journal.

Great picture of Art. Enjoyed his recent article in the DGJ. The gentlemen in the left corner is the late Ray Shotwell, one of the best friends I ever had,a great guy. I miss him dearly, sincerely Howard

Yup, Howard, Ray is "in the window". It took me a while to figure out how Charlie Price and Ray got switched. Ray was truly a piece of work and a great collector.
