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.
