OGCA weekend was great!!
Kristen and I got back last night from OHIO and we had a wonderful time. We where with the Baravalle's,Kostys and my parants great time had by all. Rocked it at the gun show and to top it off I got to meet the great Wayne Lapierre of the NRA. Not the best picture
The crowd was unreal on Saturday not bad on Sunday. Saw a very nice
RM with box but it was out of my range. Didn't have a nice S&W come by the table so I did the un-thinkable I bought a Colt. My old friend Charles Clawson(wrote the book on the 1911 and 1911A1)came by the table with it, 1917 Colt Us Property marked 12000 serial number range 98% to 99% condition MINT!!!! Also found a wonderful set of grips from one of our forum members and he also turned me on to some pre-war paper work. Great weekend.
BIG shout out to the OGCA for an outstanding banquet and show. Congrats on the 75th anniversary!!

I was there on Sunday, pretty good amount of people for a Sunday show. No guns purchased but walked out with 1050 rounds of 30 carbine and 100 rounds of 35 Remington. As always the displays
were impressive. Renewed my membership for 5 more years, and looking forward to the next show.

Yeah, Saturday was a zoo. NICE displays!! Went back on Sunday and you could hear an echo! Was there just long enough for a last day deal on another shiny one! Got a 15-4 4" that screamed "Take Me Home"!
How was the food George?

Bob, or should I say "Mr. Nickel", Good Score!
I hope you find a 3.5" 27 soon, then you'll leave these other gems alone!
