Vintagers Pictures

Post by fox-admin »

Pintail was great! I manned the Fox booth and I think the crowd was the same as last year. The Fox booth was very busy. Many interesting guns walked into the Fox booth and walked out with new owners, traded between members, I can count at least five. We added many new members and made many new friends. My 5 friends from home bought two Sterlingworths, a Super Fox, three RBL's, one English hammer gun, one German boxlock and one model 21 duck traded for a 21 20ga skeet gun!!!!! So at least a few folks were buying guns. It is a great place to shop for guns in my opinion. I spoke to a few dealer and they seemed happy with sales. Prices were equal to last year in my opinion. Dealers that had realistic prices seemed to moving guns.
The A-10 is off the charts nice in my opinion, it is an unbelievable piece of machinery and felt great in my hand. I found the engraving very nice, much better than the pictures. Lou said the engraving on the sample gun was cut by machine. The base gun for $3995. seems like a bargain in my opinion.
The sporting clays set up was the same as last year, accept it seemed better organized with respect to the shuttle to transport folks to the course and back.
I will return next year and look forward to this great event already.

Brian We signed up 10 new members this weekend. We had a big crowd around the booth most of the time. Lots of nice Foxes were brought to share. I enjoyed spending time with my "Fox Buds" and meeting new members. Paul

If Tool has any extras of the fox get's the game banner/poster, I would be interested in one. Just as a suggestion, how about the fox get's the game on a t-shirt (for members) or the new banner as a bumper/gunsafe sticker?

Ahhhhh....somehow I knew that one would be a big hit. FYI....I'm getting price quotes from the vendor on a few sizes of that banner. The one in the booth was quite large ( 6' wide x 4' tall) so I'm getting quotes on smaller sizes. I feel 3' x 2' would be great for most gunrooms. More to come.----TOOL
On the whole....I'd rather be in Philadelphia....
