Yep.

Smith's Log Smokehouse in rural Maine - Buy Smoked Jerky, Sausage, Salami, Ham, Bacon, Poultry, Cheese, Salmon, Venison, Snacks


I'm going to miss what the show was, not what it became.  Buying a Rashid that some guy was walking around the show with a 'For Sale' flag, and then buying the Savage No4 Mk1 his son was hauling around.  Barrels with random 22's and single shot shotguns from the 50's, 60's and 70's.  Parts buying before the internet took over. Getting super excited over finding left hand rifles at all.


Walking around the show with our family friend who got all us kids into shooting.  Dad wasn't a gun guy, but Bob was.  He had been friends with Dad since high school, and I'd known him my entire life.  He was into the same older C&R wood stocked blued guns that I was, so we'd run through the whole show spotting for each other.  Bob passed last year, and I'd rather keep the memories of wandering the old show with him than suffering through the way it is now, thinking how much Bob would have hated where it ended up.  Thanks for those memories, Bob - and thank you for the two Arisakas.
