Dear folks,
We had a great time at the NRA Annual Meeting and Convention in St. Louis a couple of weeks
ago...the turnout was truly amazing with lots of folks to talk to and lots of great guns and gear
to check out. One of the reports I got was more than 60,000 people attended, making it the largest
non-religious convention St. Louis has ever had. Pete and I ended up having way too many meetings
to cover, so our booth crew, Tim Dillon, Marc D'Aguanno and Randy Lehman didn't get to venture too
far from our booth. When we were in the booth, we had a really fun time meeting and visiting with
so many of you. And for those we missed, our apologies. Maybe we can catch up in Louisville,
Kentucky, May 16,17 & 18, 2008. The crowds were absolutely fantastic. I must say, it's
genuinely gratifying to see the big crowds around our booth at the show...makes me enormously
grateful to have so many friends and fans. If you were at the Convention, you might have seen a big
bunch of our gang wandering around in logo'd blue shirts, checking out the sights...by all accounts
they had a great time and were very impressed by everything going on. We took down 3 bus-loads of
our gang, many who stayed overnight. I've heard many comments from them on how much they enjoyed
seeing the other booths and talking to the folks manning them, kind of getting an overall picture
of who folks are and how each is involved with our great hunting/shooting industry.

We have a special, brand new Catalog coming out very soon - our very first 1911 Auto Catalog that is jam-packed
with everything you could imagine to build, maintain, accessorize, and just plain enjoy your 1911 Auto. Definitely
one of my personally all time favorite guns...as they are with many of you too. We will be mailing it to
everyone who ever bought a 1911 part from us on Tuesday, and should take about a week in the mail to get to you.
Please watch for it....
You won't be disappointed, it's full of the best 1911 stuff the firearms industry has to offer and I'm awfully
pleased how hard our folks worked to get it put together for you. If you've never ordered a 1911 part, please wait
a couple of weeks (you might have forgotten what-all you ordered), then check the website and get your copy
ordered. Then - you can order all kinds of 1911 Auto parts!!

Dear folks,
Spring is here which means summer is fast approaching. For gun folks like you and me, that means an
enormous slate of shooting activities around the country...high power matches, ISPC matches, Camp
Perry, three gun shoots, clays, backyard plinking...the possibilities for shooting and having a
great time are almost endless. And we just finished our late turkey season. A few months back, I
bought a nice camo 11/87 Remington for a turkey hunt, but it was just too long. So, I asked Dave
Bennetts, of our Gun Tech Gang, to shorten the stock and put on a thinner
Pachmayr Decelerator Pad (#690-551-158). Made a huge difference in my shooting comfort
and saved my shoulder even after an afternoon's worth checking patterns at different distances at
the range with turkey loads. Shooting gets a whole lot more fun when the gun fits right, doesn't
it!!
