Thought they were supposed to be back in Pa like last year (actually thought they were supposed to be there for the next 3 years). Googled this year to plan to make reservations and it appears its in Maryland. Anyone shed any light on the situation? PS. Early Oct is pretty late. Much prefer early Sept.

That’s unfortunate. Sounds like duck season to me. If this is correct, I’m guessing that many of the Vintagers are no longer hunters. Too bad.
Shoot vintage firearms, relax, and have fun.

Guess it is confirmed. Oct dates are bad. I will be chasing birds somewhere. Seems like they could have worked out something in Septt or even late August.

All the more reason to support the Rock Mountain shoot in August.

Lots of stuff posted about this on the Parker forum. I had no idea of all the problems that happened last year and I was there. Thank goodness Kevin wiped down the Fox display guns multiple times a day.

Read this morning that the Vintagers organization is desolved as of today. Apparently they put out a newsletter stating such.

From what I understand that was the national organization. The local chapters will still function independently.
Owning a Fox is not a spectator sport.

I Daryl, I'm still a tad confused if the Vintagers Cup event/shoot is no more. Local Chapters will do their thing, but no longer a big annual event and with collectors organizations and vendors etc etc.

Tom,
The bloom is off the rose. It is what it is.
