Fox Collectors

I had a great time in the duck blind this morning. I was fortunate to get one woodie and two drake mallards. And, as an added bonus, one mallard was wearing jewelry. That’s only my 2nd banded duck. This one was banded last summer in North Dakota.

This C-HE-X is truly a beautiful gun. It has HUGE BARRELS and a stock with streaks of AMBER running through it. When I pull the trigger, it unleashes a veritable STORM of pellets on its unsuspecting victims. I christen thee “TEMPEST”.

You are too predictable. Lol!

Har Har Har! Roger, you know me too well. I absolutely knew that I would be hearing from you. Thanks buddy.

Congrats on a fine hunt and the band! Supers are something else. Every time I let one of my friends hold mine, they say something like "holy cow what a massive gun!" I just grin and say that's a man's gun ha

Hard morning to beat! Ducks, bands, and Super… Oh My! You’re living right, Jeff!

That sounds like a great morning and jewelry to boot! Way to go Jeff!

Isn't it nice when it all comes together? Great shooting buddy.

In the late 1960s and early 1970s I worked for Simon Atlas Sons sporting goods at 8th and E streets in downtown Washington DC. The Gayety Burlesque Theatre was right around the corner on 8th street and Tempest Storm was always a premier booking over the major holidays along with other big names like Blaze Starr, Sally Rand and Lilli St. Cyr.

After the J. Edgar Hoover Building was finished for the FBI right across 9th street c. 1965 they did a land-office business! Especially great for us young salesmen were the Thanksgiving and Christmas holidays, when many of the "exotic dancers" would come in to buy family, friends and sweethearts hunting, fishing, hiking and camping gear. Occasionally they came in still in costume between "presentations" discreetly wearing a light housecoat or a ladies' London Fog. Tons of makeup and huge hair! Kevin

Wow Kevin! You just named some of the best. Hope you got to see a few of them. Good harmless fun (I assume).
