There will be a group of PGCA members at Pheasant Fest in Minneapolis St Paul Feb 17-19 with a fine Parker gun display that will include the first public appearance of the raffle gun.

Please stop by, introduce yourself and say hello.

See you there.

Any anyone who may have seen the article on the gun in the winter Parker Pages would also know that a big thank you are in order to Geoffroy Gournet, Breck Gorman, Doug Turnbull and Rick Losey for donating their labor and time to the project as well.

And the best way to express your thanks is to BUY LOTS OF TICKETS! More than usual. I want to see it being a record year for ticket sales.
