It's was fun, glad everyone enjoyed the day. I actually didn't eat much, was too busy taking with everyone. Good group of people, and a lot of you traveled a distance. Hope all of you made it home safely.
As said before, I provide the date and time and everyone that comes brings the food and entertainment. I never thought that big round sub sandwich would have been eaten, it was gone when I cleaned the kitchen. Larry

Larry did a good job organizing the Meeting as he usually does.
It was good to touch base with the "Bunch". Plenty of food and comradeship. Lots of very nice guns too. Had a good time as always.
Thank you again Larry. Bob, the Mule, stay safe in Kuwait buddy.

Larry thanks again. As usual a great time meeting with the "Bunch" again. It's always such a good time talking with everyone and enjoying the atmosphere and all of the great food. We had a lot of fun talking with Old Cop, Bam Bam and Larry as they were trying to close the deal on the Model 14. I picked up a Model 10 snubby project gun that some one neglected. I'm hoping with a good cleaning and possible re-finish that it will turn out to be a decent gun. As usual I learned a few things that I didn't know and look forward to adding to my gun knowledge. There were some beautiful collections there to gaze upon. Bob R. good luck with your pending shoulder surgery. We had some good laughs outside with the four of us joking around. To Bob "The Mule" stay safe Brother and look forward to your return. The offer to baby sit your guns still stands. Maybe I can get the kit together by your return. Thanks to all for another great get together and I'm already looking forward to the fall.

I had a great time, like a sailor on shore leave. The circular sub sandwich was wonderful, as were all of the treats. Maybe I should have gotten the t-shirts in all the colors. Old friends, new friends and Larry organizing, what's better than that? Thank you to all.

Thanks Larry! Another great time and I especially thank you for considering my schedule in setting the date.
Thank you all for the kind words and nice wishes. I appreciate them. Just remember, lotsa folks served before me and lotsa folk will serve after me. I thank all of the vets for thier service!
Let's not forget the spouses we leave behind, thier workload at least doubles while we are gone. I truely believe they have it tougher. My wife is amazing.
I'll see you all in the fall of 2018.... MAYBE spring of 2018.
Larry, I can't get that 22-40 outta my head......
Thanks again everybody!
Bob

Thank you Larry!
Thank you Larry! Great time! Never dreamed there would be 3 14-6 "Roper" 4" revolvers at same meet...let alone 2 29-1's...I had told my wife I would probably never see another 29-1 in person, but lo and behold there was another one there at the "Bunch." Never seen that many 10 5/8" 29 silhouette's in one location, but there they were...and what about all those 3" hand cannons! And all the "black" presentation cases! All the displays were great! A great "bunch" of S&W friends all in one room!

Never been a 29 Fan but wow........ some of those baby's needed gun carriages!
Glade to see TheMule get his trifecta of K Masterpieces....... .38, .22 and finally his .32!!!
My wife was like, wow!, when I showed her the pictures!!!!!
Funny how things go in cycles..... I mentioned to either Larry or Old_Cop that this was my first Bunch without a Reg. Magnum. A year ago IIRC there were 4 !
Scrolling through the Photos again ( thanks Denny) we need some more S&W autos........................ lets see some PC and 3rd Gen guns in the fall!

Finally getting to the break down of the money from the meeting. Just didn't want to do it. Gonna change it a little cause someone in SW Ohio could use some help. We had 469.00 raised and paid out 22 for supplies and 26 to help with the T-shirt distribution. That leaves 421.00. NOSC will get 121.00, the Forum 150.00 and Rusty1953 will get 150.00. Rusty was hit hard with a flooded basement and lost a lot. He could use some extra money.
Hope everyone is wearing the T-Shirts with pride, they came out nice. Hope all of you have a nice summer and will see some of you as time passes. Larry

Another bump to see that we gave Rusty1953 a check for 150.00 to use as needed. He had a flooded basement and lost everything down there including a lot of the kids clothes last summer. The forum auctioned a donated gun for a second time to help Rusty and his family. Larry

Ya made Ruthie cry!
I got a call from Fred telling me to keep an eye on the mailbox. He wouldn't say why. Intrigue sets in:
A letter arrives:
After reading said letter:
Ruthie and I are floored. The disaster of August was devastating. If not for the many donations from Lee and kind-hearted members, help from off-duty firefighters and LEO's and the group Mathew:25, we would not have had any chance at recovery as we live in a declared "flood zone" and insurance would not cover it.
We still have some work to do but it is bearable.
If it is ok with this group, Ruthie and I would like to earmark this blessing from you to, health willing, head NE to spend a day with you good folk at one of your gathering.
We can think of no better way to use it.
Thank you all so very much and may God hold you close.
Ever your servant: Rusty

Larry and Bunch thanks for the pics. It was my virtual attendance experience. I have to say that it was quite appropriate that the 1st pics shown were of the kitchen and the food! "The real reason we all like to go" Great displays guys. Excellent!! I will be back in late August but will probably not be there in Oct. Although our 10th grandchild is due in October so maybe we will make a special trip to see him/her...wink wink.

Too bad we just missed you that Saturday Mike. Congratulations on so many grandchildren, that's a real blessing.
It was fun. Denny takes some nice pics. The food was great as usual. This thread is so close to 200 posts and I believe 7000 visits. Too bad we couldn't reach them before the thread drifts down through the pages. Larry

Hey Larry I dropped by Tuesday morning and neither you or Bill were at the shoot. I saw Steve for a minute as he was leaving. I'll try to stop again soon. I'll message you first though. I wanted to show you guys how the Model 10 cleaned up.
