I thought it was a fantastic event, and the Guyette and Deeter team, coupled with our own Mr. Josh Lowensteiner did a very professional job with their inaugural event. I will be back. St. Michaels was a wonderful place to host the event and I hope it stays there.
Special thanks to our Parker Forum Members that I was able to meet, most for the first time at the auction. It was very nice to meet all of you, and I look forward to future trips and some shooting!!!! Thank you all again for a great time. Bobby Grilli "Gunner Grilli" |

It sounds like a nice place to visit, and I wish I could go some day. It's just so far that by the time I pay for the dog care and travel, I could meet the BP cost for a nice gun. Still, I'd like to see their facility and enjoy some of the things folks have noted in the area (especially the seafood!!)...not to mention meet some folks that I've come to know only through the Forum.

I watched the auction on the live stream. It was fun watching the bids change in real time. I did mark down all the sold prices in the catalog just for grins. I must say it was definitely more exciting than any NFL, NBA or college hoops. It is especially cool knowing who bought what. That adds a major "cool factor" to the auction.

Mike, did you have a list of the bidder numbers? By the way, we saw what we think is Destry's old Churchill 8 gauge. Sixteen thousand some odd dollars.

The Guyette and Deeter auction team, and Josh Lowensteiner and his colleagues, collaborated to put on a superb two-day event. The hospitality, locations, and management of the auction were all first-rate. Talbot County, MD and the Chesapeake Bay Maritime Museum should be proud to have this celebration of Americana and sporting arms centered in Easton and St. Michaels. There were many new plateaus reached with prices this weekend. We Parker, Ithaca, A.H. Fox, Winchester, etc. owners should sleep well knowing that our valuations have entered new territory. (Here's wondering who the online bidders were that had their foot to the floorboard on some of the bids? Perhaps we'll see those items come back around one day.) In any event, here's looking forward to September 2023 and that the auction team can assemble another world-class line up. Keep it up Guyette and Deeter, and Josh. It was a most pleasurable February event along the frigid Miles River. Thank you for the food, drinks, expertise and displays. And, PGCA members, put the September date on your travel calendars. You can still read the menu if you're on a diet.
