Will you have stuff for sale?
I like your Garand shirt that says BLAM BLAM BLAM BLAM BLAM BLAM BLAM BLAM PING -- at first I thought it was about Steel Challenge (on a bad day).

Hi Pat,

Yes we will.

It's a bit confusing to explain, but we'll have a small selection of items available for purchase through Bill's (a trial run). These designs will include: 1911, All Rights Reserved, AR Sight, Gadsden, and M4 Flag.

I'll also be handing out 10% coupon codes the can be used online at the show--so though I won't have any Garands on hand, you can always purchase online.

Thanks for asking!
Best Regards,
28_days

Can't you get over there Friday morning? Or does your drill include Friday as well?

I hope to get over there sometime Friday.

friday i have to start driving at 0630 to get there by 0730/0740 driving at posted speed limits, then we look over the trucks and line them up and drive another 3 hours or so to camp ripley, then we wait around for 5 hours or so to be told what to do, then start over the next day


Good times, good times....ah how I miss those days... :)

Stop by the CZ booth. We'll have a very nice Dan Wesson 1911 to demo. I shot it a week ago and it is very sweet.

went yesterday ... what a waste of time!

no P938, no P290, no XDS, no mustang ... er any colt pistols ... half the "show" is bills clearance items ... Taurus and charter had big tables

best guess is, all they did was take whatever was in the rental case and lay em out

The important part though, did you get to harass the beretta rep about the rail cover?

That's almost becoming tradition.

I may be wrong, but I think they discontinued that model ... anyhow, I didn't see it ... though, I spose that don't mean much

I had to laugh though ... some d-bag, right outta the blue, with an XDM, of all things, tries to show me that if I stick my weak thumb in front of my trigger finger, inside the trigger guard, I can shoot faster, with a shorter reset. I pointed out that the gun he was holding has bout a 1/2 in reset, and it would only actually fire one shot if he did that. He got purdy indignant with me bein less than appreciative of his tip.
