Tom, thanks for the great pics and kudos. As with each of these events, lots of great guns offered for both display and sale! Every time we do this we meet so many great people and see so many great guns brought in for 'show and tell' as well as the opportunity to view the "old standbys" as well as the "closet queen" Foxes brought out into the light! WHERE did that early ejector straight grip Pin Fun come from!? Like most lotteries, you have to play to win! Best highlights for me was being able to provide Geoffoy Gournet the chance to take some engraving pulls from one of our members wonderful very early CE gun to duplicate on his upcoming Sterly upgrade from "field to fabulous" and the verification of our new 32" AE ex- Dana Tauber collection 20 gauge chokes, which helped us tear up the pigeon ring in grand style! Great event made even more inspiring by Team Fox's victory in the shootout with our Lefever brethren. Foxes rule! Kevin

After a hiatus of a couple of years, I enjoyed my four days at Ernies very much. The "brand organization" appearance is probably the best ever. All of them were situated in a row, making for a wonderful group of displays. Kevin's 32" 20 gauge A grade definitely was something to watch on the pigeon ring. I haven't yet gotten the final measurement of the bores and chokes, but they must be unusual.

Bill, don't remember the right barrel on Kevin's 32 inch A grade. Do remember the left barrel and it was .031. That would be tight as they say for a 20 gauge.

My $450 Galazan four gun bore gauge has taken the place of my two Skeets and Galazan $100 gauges, and I am very satisfied. The new micrometer was in the truck all weekend and was not called to action.
