    I would like everyones opinion.

    I have been asked if I would bring the National M1icon Carbine show that I had in Birmingham Alabama a few years ago to Dallas Texas. Is there any interest and would you attend. We have talked about September 2010 show in Dallas. I would like to get some input from you guys on if there is any interest?

    A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered.  Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping.  In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail.

    Hello PBI,
    I've already figured out my route !!
    Pretty sure I have a place to stay also.
    Just hoping it will be early in September.
    I'll be sticking a arrow in something here come Oct 1.
    Be nice to see this workout where you don't have all that 'Out of pocket cost' to get it started.

    Let me know when the doors open and I will be camping out in line the night before. Too bad the lead time to set it up is so long - I would settle for this September if the logistics would have been possible!

    I would bet you'd get a good showing from the guys/gals here in San Antonio! Cowboys and Carbines!

    Curt,
    I'm tossing around the idea of taking the motor home. You could always meet me and ride along.

    Weather report

    Jim,
    Its all relative. Its cooler and a bit more breezy than in July and mid-August. I'm guessing it with ONLY be about 95 for a high with 95% humidity. We don't let it get "cold and dry" like you do in California. We go through alot of grease (vice oil) on the carbines when going to the range - so bring an extra supply.

    Oh, and none of those burmuda short pants with black knee socks that shout "tourist". But a good Stetson, some Levi 505 jeans and a pair of boots will make you fit right in! Harley's are welcome and everyone bring your golf clubs and a BIG appetite for steak.

    Seriously, the whole idea has me so excited that I want to pop open the safe and start cleaning firearms!

    Ed
