This was my first SHOT show, and it was fabulous!
BPCR well represented by the various Montana rifle makers, Pedersoli booth, Marlin's 1895 Cowboy series, NEF, several barrel makers. Nothing terrifically new I saw. The competition quality barrels is what brought tears to my eyes....the quality, the finish, the sheer beauty of glistening polished steel! Montana Vintage Arms showed off a miniature low-wall action that was interesting...they were testing market interest.
Sorry you missed out.
Hope to see you at the 2005.
