I am booked to go to the Southern this weekend and hope to see some of you there despite the rain forecast for Friday & Sunday. Saturday looks to be a good day. I hope they have solved the traffic issue on the course this year.

Folks, been here every day working the Fox booth with Kevin McCormack. Bring cash, lots of cash. Lots of eye candy in here. Everything was slow on Thursday due to horrible weather. Good weather started yesterday about 10 am, but its still muddy. Weather looks outstanding today. PS. If you shoot plan on having some damp and muddy feet.

Owen, was the Boss a sidelever hammer BTW? I did make a purchase first thing as I could not resist, a 1898 Joseph Lang & Son pigeon hammer gun that had been sleeved to 32". It's a beast of a gun.

I'd love to see pics if it. Pigeon guns are very special to me.

Yesterday was beautiful weather. The crowd was very large by mid-day. Good to see so many folks out. I was unable to make a deal on a Fox CE but did pick up a nice Beesley London side lock. That CE was there last year and was over priced. It was $900 less this year and still over priced. The folks at Atkin Grant and Lang told me they view this as the best SxS event top to bottom, a great diverse selection of guns. They said this is the only US event they will be doing going forward. A great day and a great event.

Sorry guys, I gave the Lang to Gunter on Saturday at the event to start working on a few things. When I get it back will share pictures with everyone.
