Tears in my eyes!!!

[hawkeye1755]

THAT'S what i'm missing in Germany!
There is no gunshow like this. :cursing:
My eyes are full of tears

I hope that times will change.

:hatsoff:

Very nice, and not a one in the lot has a 1:48 inch twist... :haha:

Here's to changing times, hope they are for the better...

That sure is pretty eye candy---makes you drool over the beauty of the skills and talents of people. These guns are like bamboo fly rods----I wouldn't take a $3000+ fly rod on a stream nor a $4000+ gun into the woods---they would both sit on the wall---and perform what use?? Right---- none, zero, zilch, nada---so I personally don't need expensive eye candy sitting on the wall. I leave that to the collectors and stick with Orvis for the rods and TVM (Maybe) for the guns. :hatsoff:

 

[The Baron]

There's no shows like that in Canada either, that's for sure!

Where was that show? And when is the next one? :grin:

True...
David Crockett did not take the fancy rifle given to him during his time in congress to Texas. He took his old reliable "Betsey."
I prefer my old rough, reliable, and versatile Charleville.

Well my Pa used his 300 Wetherby as a walkin' stick through beaver swamps ,pushed the boat off rocks, and hung it on a nail out side the cabin some would look on with horror but Dad would just say "It's a gun for huntin' and that's what happens when your out huntin'".
never abused it just didn't let it slow down the hunt.

 

[Goldhunter]

Shoot. I wish we had shows like that in Utah!

 

[Slake]

Boy oh Boy oh Boy...nice guns there..wow...I am no collector...nor am I rich. I did end up with a Commerative model of a Ruger revolver and it turned out to be one of the nicest shooters I've ever owned. I shoot it lots. Sometimes I feel guilty for not leaving it in its custom case and then I say....BAH...I load it up and go have fun with it! It's wearing nicely

Nice bunch of pictures Undertaker. I guess I'm going to have to check the CLA Shows out. It looks like they have the best of everything there.
