THE MVACA 7-2010 DISPLAY SHOW





























We attended the July, 2010 Kansas City Show with two displays. There were 50 displays in competion, most of which were serious competition for us. Our Lee Straight Pull display featured a new aquisition, one of the rifles recovered from the Maine. The NRA and Club judges did not favor this display, but rumor has it that the Maine Rifle was in serious competition with a Gatling gun that won "best individual gun".




We also took our Hotchkiss display, which won nothing from the NRA, but won a top ten runnerup from the Club.




As usual a great time with close friends and fellow collectors.
