Getting together with friends

Post by fox-admin »

A group of SxS collectors, shooters and craftsman got together yesterday for a day of clays shooting, gun displays and food in western NY. We had a bunch of guns from local collections including Foxes, Parker's and Ithaca's. A few pictures. I didn't get pictures of all 21 guys participating but it was big fun. Craig

Geez, those are some nice looking guns. Really like the straight grip DE I believe, but they are all super.

Hmmm, I'm just curious if I was close to you guys.

I spent the week in the Watkins Glenn / Finger Lakes area. I finished up with a trip to Niagra Falls with a stop at Doug Turnbull's on the way on Routes 5 and 20.

I was sniffing the air for Foxes while I was up there but no luck.

Well I guess the wind was blowing in the wrong direction then! LOL!!

With all those beautiful Foxes in one place I'm sure my spider senses would have been tingling if I got close. The farthest east I got was Geneva then down to Ovid. Looks like I made a wrong turn. I should have gone North from Geneva. I guess I was maybe 15 to 20 minutes from you guys at one time. Neat coincidence.
