WACA Cody Show 6-2009

We had a great time at the Cody show. Visiting with friends, and making new ones. Our Hotchkiss display won "Best Historical Display", and we received the replacement trophy for the traveling "Best Educational Display" that we won last year and returned for this year's winner. All in all a wonderful trip. Here are photos of the display, and the trophys.

Colorado Gun Collectors Show Results

We had a great time at this always wonderful gun show. The displays were outstanding!!! We won a recognization award with our Hotchkiss display, but the Lever Action display (which usually gets all of the attention) won nothing. Here is a photo of each.

Revised Lever Explanations

I have revised the Lever Action Display explanations to reflect new information obtained for items 1, 2 & 3.
Thanks for your interest, and feel free to contact me.

Displays at Sioux Falls, SD Mar. 14&15, 09

We did our two displays at a show in Sioux Falls, SD March 14 & 15. It was great time visiting with old friends and making new ones. Our two displays tied for first, so we were awarded 'Best of Show'. Please note the addition of an 1880 Hunting Knife to the Hotchkiss Display. We received a very nice plaque, and $100.

Displays at St. Louis

In August we put up two displays at the St. Louis Arms Collectors show. Our "Winchester Lever Actions in the Service" took 'Best Educational, and our "Winchester Hotchkiss Military Guns" took 'Best of Show'. We received many nice comments. Here are photos of the displays. Our next outing with these displays will be at the Kansas City show January 10 &11, '09. Come and see us.
