WINCHESTER ARMS COLLECTORS

Check out our website at winchestercollector.org and join our great organization.

SIOUX FALLS February, 2020



Once again we made our annual trip to the Dakota Territory Gun Collectors Assoc. Sioux Falls Trophy Show.  This year when we unloaded it was 15 degrees which was 20 degrees warmer than last year's set up day.  Warm!!  We took our very much revised 'Winchester' Lever Actions in the Service' display.  It is unique and we received many complements.  The display award categories were improved from previous years by using categories decided by the judges plus an overall winner.  All the category cash awards were the same with slightly more for the overall winner.  We won 'Best Historical Display' which fit our display perfectly.   As usual we visited with many friends that we see only a few times each year.  We had a great time!!

ALLENTOWN, PA, October , 2019

We attended the Forks of the Delaware Historical Arms Society show in Allentown, PA in October , 2019.  We were there in 2018 and enjoyed it so much we decide to  go back. The Organization made us feel welcome and the fellow collectors were fun to be around.  We took our Lee Navy display which was well received and earned a 1st Place award second to 'Best of Show'.   Not sure if we can make it again this year as the trip home is quite long (14 hours) but it won't be for lack want!

OGCA May 2019

After an absence of several  years we again did a display at the Ohio Gun Collectors May, 2019  display show.  We chose our new and improved Winchester Hotchkiss display.  As usual the show was well organized and a very friendly place for a gun collector to show his favorites. The Saturday evening banquet was very good and well attended.  We won the Best Antique Display.  Enjoy the photos.
