at the OGCA this past weekend, good show, lots of people, too many "selling" and old models were NOT moving, and some nice ones to be had, these I had to take, could NOT turn them down , took a few in on trade...

Americal, there was at least 3 dozen others walking around,all shapes and sizes, two mint 357 flatops, one was boxed even, the other was a BKH34 in the #24xx range, your choice $800....I sent him to my friend bought the boxed BKH36, he was tickled.............boxed BKH44 brass frame was offered to me for $1100 but it would NOT letter, its been around for some time now, he was asking like $1500, no-ones bought it yet....oh well, maybe Radical remembers, was that 45 brassie a convertible?????
I never did get a chance to 'walk the floor', see all the tables, went direct to a couple of them to pick up "parts" or boxes, but that was it.....OH < I did screw up , yep, even I make a mistake, there was a stainless Old Army, had a 45 LC "conversion" ( centerfire) AND a Ruger Old Army flap holster for $400, I forgot to go back.....duh was too busy buying a couple of Bearcats for the price of ONE........ :roll: 8) :wink:

Oh, my goodness! The only time I've seen any thing even remotely similar at a gun show around these parts was when I had the stuff for sale on MY table!

Wow!

Me neither. Since Bill H stopped doing gun shows in GA, the best old Ruger I might see is a beater 3 screw SS priced at 2x what it's worth. I need to start fishin' in a different state...

Yessir, we have 'missed Bill H the past few OGCA meetings, and that being said, between Bill H , Rich M, myself, John K and some others that have set up for all these years at the OGCA we see way MORE than our share of any and all Rugers, the only thing that is NOT there is one of the "full line" "dealers" who carry the Ruger product line for the latest , upto datest, nope there was NOT a 'single' ( any ) SR 1911 that I saw or even heard about,.but as for the old models, they were certainly here, and in "mass", as well as what was brought in by Members & guests.....yes, even had a guy bring me a Super Blackhawk with an "S" on the bottom, we sent him over to Rich and Jim S. don't know if they bought it or not,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
no Ale-8, did NOT sell that 80 prefix Super, as I said no-one really even paid any attention to most of the old models, and you saw all the ones we had on the table??? go figure .............
The 'radical One' cannot buy them all......... :roll: :wink:

Yeah, I really couldn't believe all the folks who just walked by your tables, glanced at all the nice Old Models WITH BOXES and kept on walking.

Amazingly, one thing that seemed to draw interest was the little Savage single-shot-that-looks-like-a-single-action-revolver. There's just no explaining people.
