Please come out and join us for the 25th Vintage Gunners Cup. It's going to be a great event and lots of fun!

I see Shenk shotshell company is displaying there. Am I the only one who feels it amusing that they are going to display/set up for showing and obviously to solicit business when folks on this chat site have been waiting several months for their orders and some complaints about not returning emails

Not having exhibited since 2019, I hope you guys will speak slowly so this old guy from rural Suffolk, England can understand you!

See you there,
Toby Barclay,
