This is what I was told. The Lefever Arms Collectors Association doesn't have any insurance because we cannot figure out why on earth we would need it. Therefore we are not coming.


I'm a LACA member and surprised to learn the Assoc lacks insurance. All it takes is one unfortunate accident at a promoted shoot like Lefevr & Fox to show organizerss why they need insurance. Then there's guns sold off LACA tables and raffled by the assoc. They may be safe as could be, but when a dolt does something stupid with it the seller is often on the hook. All it takes is a few dollars to start a lawsuit and way more to pay for defense. This is a word to the wise.

Craig,

The Purdey seminar will be given on both Friday and Saturday. I will be putting together a schedule of events. The German Gun Collectors usually have a lecture or two and we'll have a falconry exhibition as well. I'm sure there will be other items to add to a schedule of events. Thank you for asking.----Matt

Hello All,

A little more info on some of the events at the Vintage Gunners Cup.

Trophies for The Two-Main Paired Gun Flurry will be awarded to the winning loaders as well as the shooters

There is a new 50-target “Side Event” for Ladies Only on Friday and Saturday. Participants may shoot any gauge and trophies will be awarded for Hammergun and Hammerless.

Trophies for the Main Event will be awarded for the Top 5 places.

Trophies for the Main Event Lady Shooters will be awarded for the Top 3 places.

Trophies for the Main Event will also be awarded for the top shooters who did not place in the Top 5 shooters or Top 3 Ladies in the following age groups:

Top Senior – Aged 16 - 60

Top Veteran – Aged 61 – 70

Top Super Veteran – Aged 71 and over

The Registration Form is available on the Vintage Gunners website(http://www.vintagers.org) as well as the Hopkins Game Farm website(http://www.hopkinshunting-clays.com/sporting-clays-tournaments-maryland.asp). Naturally, you may register when you arrive at Hopkins.

I mentioned this in another thread, but I plan on having a Doublegun Forum meet-up at 4:30pm on Saturday September 23rd, at the tables by the food area. I hope any members of this board attending the VGC will drop by so we can put names and faces to profile names.

I look forward to seeing some of you there. ----Matt

Matt, Gary, how about an update? It's all about courtesy. To be honest, it's all about making more money and more friends.

Eis, that is what it is. See the registration form (and fill it out and come join us this year). Under 16 would be Junior. ----Matt
