We were there from Friday thru Sunday and entered several of the hammer and hammerless events, both 12 and sub gauge. We also went to the Saturday night dinner and met some really nice people, like Dave Weber and his wife along with Ray and Melanie.
We had shot at Dover before but the stations and presentations were all different and each gauge and category, hammer, hammerless and sub- gauge had different presentations that kept us on our toes, so to speak.
There were two large vendor tents with plenty of vintage American, British, and European guns, within and without my budget, as well as clothing and all the extras that go along with SxSs.
I could never attend the events in Maryland so I was glad the Vintagers opted for NY. The weather was sunny and warm and it was good to catch up with friends I met at the Northeast and other shoots.
The piper should get a medal for endurance and the various tunes added to the overall ambiance. I may get a kilt for next year, tho I am not Scottish. I do like Lagavulin.
We will be back next year and hope to enter more of the sub- gauge hammer and hammerless events.
