Good Job Guy's ! Once again a great set of displays. Thanks for all of your efforts, doing these shows has to be an enormous amount of work. I was able to meet a few of you and put a face to the sign on names . The displays of Vaqueros and Old Army's were impressive in their sheer amount of models shown. Once again Terry T's displays grabbed my interest . The collection of SP101's was awesome, many varieties I didn't know existed , thoughtfully laid out and educational . As with the Speed Six and Security Sixes a couple of years ago, you not only see something new you get some education in the process. Very well done.
Man I need a #1 RSI bad !!!!

First I'd like to thank Hank and Susie for yet another great show. Their work does get noticed!
As a testament to that, One gentleman left -3 Wisconsin to fly out here for the show. The Saturday night dinner was superb! Nice to meet you Dennis. Good to see TBear and Wife and Son at the show. Met a lot of good people. The displays were yet outstanding. Thanks to Ruger Owners & Collectors and Lewis & Clark Trader for the awards. Bearpaw Jack was a first time displayer, had a lot of nice revolvers - everyone who came by picked one up! Joel had a great display - another first timer. I'm sure TerryT's, LoveMyDals or Hanks photos will be better than the ones I took so I leave that to them. Glad everyone made it home OK - Sorry 'bout the snow :!:

A few photos:
I know folks know me as a double action guy but I like Vaqueros too!
Just to mix it up, I brought out a few Vaqueros to share at Boise.
But....couldn't leave the SP-101s at home so.....
Had a great time - met some fine folks, renewed old friendships, made some new ones and ate too much.

A few more photos - I'm sure the other folks are better - they have better cameras!
"Love my Dals" with his 'best of show' Old Armys:
"Love my Dals" couldn't leave his Speed Sixs home either.
Some more displays:
"Steve Ruger"
Hank and some amazing engraved Vaqueros:
"Old Ruger Man"
"UBME"
And then a Boise Monday morning "good by" :shock:
(Bit of a shock for a couple of Ca. boys! )

Another thank you to Hank and Susie for hosting the show.
Terry's display with the Vaquero's and pic's of Kelly really got my wife's attention. It was her favorite display; she even asked what the difference was between the Vaquero's and Blackhawks. But the highlite of the show for her was when Randy introduced her to Marlin as my daughter-in-law...it's going to be while before I live that one down. I ain't THAT old.
Now that she's met some members of the forum, she is happier that I'm spending time here rather than 'other' sites. :wink:

Better late than never. The following are photos from the 6th Annual Ruger Collectors Display Show in Bosie Idaho (January 10 & 11, 2015)
First & foremost, a really big THANK YOU to Hank & Susan Green for their hard work with this year's show! There is a lot of "behind the scenes" work that takes place long before the show weekend arrives that we the displayers don't see. As in past years, another successful show!
Thank you Terry T for your prompt efforts to post some photos from this fabulous ROCS show.
This year we had eleven displays presented by seven displayers (two were first time displayers) traveling from California, Utah & various locations in Idaho judged under Ruger Owners & Collectors Society (ROCS) judging rules, People's Choice Award & the show promoter.

Enjoy everyone!
