Stopped going here years ago decided to give it another shot (no pun intended) Not really worth it and I get free parking due to being a town resident. Too Crowded to be able to look things over good. With all the empty space towards the back of the building I think they should of spread it out...

Have to agree. This time of year not a lot to do. Also do meet a lot of old friends. I'll go this time. Haven't been in years but the Big E gives town residents free parking to all events except the Fair itself so heck I'll fork over the entrance fee. LOL

+100 Right you are. Also will give a chance to see a larger variety of guns since just getting into it probably hasn't seen or handled a lot and gives them a chance to meet some of the dealers and decided for themselves if they want to do business with them. While I don't feel the guns shows...

Some of the regular dealers there are good and not gonna sell you junk. Just ask around here which venders the members feel they can trust. Myself Two local stores are pretty good. AAA guns and Guns N Parts. It would be a one stop hit a bunch of dealers trip. Ya the show ain't what it use to be...

The fact that they charge for parking has cut into the show attendance a lot beside the high rates that are charged for the vendors. I use to go to everyone show they had for guns but stopped going awhile back. I live in town and residents do get a sticker for free parking there but even then...

Think I'll just sleep in and avoid the crowds. Have my coffee then start reloading with all the heads I just got. Less stress and more bullets then. hehe

I will have to say I haven't had any issues with my Para Ord single stack LDA. Love the trigger too. (once you get use to it)

45-70's are awesome. I use to collect them. Rarest I had was a Remington Lee Navy Bolt action in 45-70 looked just like the 303 Enfield. Never casted my own bullets though. Just bought them and reloaded. Nice living not to far from the Springfield Armory to research some of the stuff. Regret...

Cool thanks. My printer can do 13 x 44 ( usually only do 13 x 19 though) so the more types I can print the better. Thanks again.

Makes a hell of a cigar lighter. Dash mounted too. LOL Now if I had that on my MC when people cut me off I could umm respond better.

The French mounted one of those on Vespa's LOL After World War II, there was little money for defense spending while the nations of Europe rebuilt their industry and society. When there was some cash to spend, one had to be creative to stretch it as far as possible. The French probably...

Ah yes Carrier Landings. A whole world in itself. Would be the best of the best IMHO

My pleasure. Mine were sitting 42 yrs and in sad shape. If you do have a special one that you want me to try and fix. Shoot me a line. I can fix most but no miracles. LOL Last two I played with.

Mr.Twigg Hope you don't mind. I fixed up your old photos just a bit. I know the ones I had from 68 were in sad shape since storage wasn't a big concern years back. Hate to see old memories not as vivid for future generations to see.

Ah ok. I know the F4's later (after Nam. We had F-4J's on our ship over there) were called I believe Wild Weasels seeking out anti-air missile sites. I believe they were also still used until a short time ago. Was just curious. Out of all the planes we had I just had this thing about the F-4J's.

I've noticed your posts to that effect and thank you for the support for those that served and are serving. Curious your screen name in relationship to the F4 Phantom's?

I tried out for UDT. Didn't make it during qualification physical tests. Never considered myself UDT either. Too bad some people feel the need to try and stand out. To me just the fact that he served be it stateside or anyplace else, peace time, war time would of been enough for me to think of...

Have to totally agree with you Skysoldier. Years back I had to train a new driver. Everyone was telling me he was ex SEALS. I'm like that'd be cool. Got him in the truck did the small talk. Said to him I hear you're ex-seals he said ya. What about you. I said Navy did the Tonkin Gulf in 68'...

Ah ok.
