....I'm giddy about having met everyone, it was a distinct pleasure. The Ruger was icing, but I am just as happy about the fellowship.

Good to meet you Tony!

In the letter that came with the grips..... (reply)

......Tedd Adamovich closed by saying, "Tell Johnny I miss him and the times we spent together hunting and just enjoying his company. He still remains one of the finest men I've ever known to have shot the antler off of a fine buck."

It was a lovely evening..... (reply)

...and as Lucky Tony said, there were lots of people there socializing, telling hunting stories (rumor has it that some of them were even true!), and just generally having a good time. There were raffles, auctions, stories, a video of JT's recent hunt, and a special presentation of a very special sixgun to JT from Milt Morrison and his wife. Afterwards, several of us went out to the lobby for a cold beverage (or two) and to continue with the handgun hunting stories and general BS-ing.

Lucky Tony wasn't the only one who got lucky. I won a pair of beautiful N-frame BluMagnum Grips donated by Ted Adamovich. It only seemed appropriate to put Taffin's grips on a 4" Model 1950 .44 Special....

I think you have good reason to be excited! (reply)

Today I met a few fine folks in the Sixgunner world.

To begin with, Mr. John Taffin of course, but I was also privileged to meet Ted Keith! Yes, the son of the master. In addition, there were a few other folks that some of you know.

John Linebaugh
Gary Reeder
Ben Forkin
Jack Huntington
Brian Pierce
Rob Leahy
Bob Baker
Wayne Baker
Roy Fishpaw
Kelly Brost
Kelye Schlepp
Andrew Rowe
Jeff Johns
Ken O'Neill
Milt Morrison
Blacky Sleeva

I accompanied Glen Fryxell to the dinner, and we saw Tom Lewis there. I know I've left out a few folks, for which I apologize, but I'm a bit excited having won a raffle at dinner. Just a small one, mind you, so I won't mention it much, but I will post a picture of myself and John . Oh, btw, John is holding my small prize........

Just checked in to the Riverside Hotel......
