I was there mid-day Friday for several hours. I think most folks were out shooting! I did speak with a few PGCA members but the Parker tent was basically empty the couple of times I dropped in. I had originally planned to come back on Saturday but the plans kind of changed last minute and I didn't get back. As always it was an enjoyable time despite the fact that I came home empty handed.

We were there Thursday. No one in the tent when we checked, and Josh was the only member we spoke with (he had some great guns). There were certainly lots of great guns to look at…and Elaine let me take one home. Scheming how to blood it now. What a great problem.

Not home yet…

Reggie, I’m sorry I missed you. Next year let’s see if we can rendezvous at Josh’s table.

Would like to have met you in the flesh as well ! Did meet a couple guys from MI I’d heard of before .
