There was a saying in the Foreign Policy establishment years ago - "If it's not written up, it didn't happen." The corollary In hunting: "If there are no photos - it's fantasy." Upstate NY is beautiful even for a southerner. But. . proof is in the pudding.

If you have photos but don't know how to post them, I'll send you an email via pm and post for you,
...Christ, I have to provide proof of life photos for hunting now?....
So Argo says that "If there are no photos-it's fantasy". On that basis, I assume we can conclude that E.M. Reilly was a retailer, but didn't actually have a large manufacturing business.
It wasn't all that long ago that Dustin and I asked for photos to back up his baseless claims that E.M. Reilly was a fairly large firearms manufacturer that had over 300 gunmaking employees. We got nothing.
I even posted some photos of the Syracuse N.Y. Lefever Arms factory, and an image of employees in the process of building Lefever shotguns.... just to show what actual evidence looks like. We asked for E.M. Reilly factory photos again, and we're accused of being scalawags and other unflattering things.
Nice pics Brian. I guess we can all believe you now...LOL!
