It is getting close to the time that I have to decide if I am going to make the trip to the Vintagers.
Should I make it, how many of you good people will I be able to put a face to a name? Are many planning to attend and is it likely to be a good event? I have never been before.

I llike it. My wife and I have made some good friends there and both of us look forward to this one event every year. My job involves traveling every week so airline tickets and hotel charges are free for me. That is really the only way that we can go. If I didn't travel I would drive to it. In short form, good people and a lot of nice guns to look at.
JMHO, Regards, Gordon

You should come. I think you would be very surprised at how many shooters/vendors show up, and how many people you know vicariously will be there. Also, with the pound at $2.00+, you will feel rich! Keith

Had hoped tp display some big bore guns, but with the @ $800
cost of a booth decided it was not worth it. Will be there at least on Saturday. Great venue for my type of gun. Hope to
see you there.

Small B,
Hope to see you there!
If you're going, get the hotel first. The first couple of hotels on the Vintagers webpage list are full.

It isn't quite the spectacle of the big UK game fair, but it is fun. Yes, you will meet some faces from the US internet. I have perfect attendance at New York Vintager years. I will be at the Maryland venue. You may find some local travel info and hotel location suggestions on the PGCA forum.

I'll be there. Only one I've missed was 2004. Got my airline ticket a couple of weeks ago. $239 round trip GEG to IAD. The PGCA is having its annual get together in conjunction with the Vintage Cup this year, so there should be some interesting Parker Bros. guns seen. Being on the fabled "Eastern Shore" waterfowl guns will be the PGCA theme. Also, Craig Larter has gotten an A.H. Fox Gun Collectors booth planned and I'm sure the L.C. Smith boys will be there in force.

I'd like to come and we'll see if we can get there. I had hoped to have shot the Stomping Rifle but the re-loading is on back order.
Currently own two Morgan cars. Starting on Black Powder hunting to advoid the mob of riflemen.
