Enjoyed yesterday's conversations with Josh Lowensteiner, Steve Barnett's step son August, Bucky Bowles, Tony Makris, and was pleased to get to meet and spend some time with John Deeter, of Guyette & Deeter. All very gracious gentlemen. Time well spent, IMO.

Some wonderful guns for sale. I was once again reminded of how reasonably priced Stephen Cobb's guns are. He has many nice examples of English doubles that most any aficionado should be able to afford. He had no less than four very nice 2" chambered game guns, none of which weighed over 5/11, as I recall. I was especially taken back by a beautiful little 28 ga. hammergun. But, the buttstock was so short that a 1" pad wouldn't have even gotten it into my wheelhouse. Gorgeous little thing.

Thanks to Brays Island Co., and all the exhibitors, for making it happen once again.
