So... it looks like next weekend, Feb 5 & 6 (opposite our Harvard shoot) there is a "Gun Weekend" at BassPro in Foxboro. Info at the bottom of the post...

I have called Bass Pro to see if we can get a table there next weekend. The managers I need to speak to aren't there today so I will reach out to them tomorrow.

Meanwhile... who's interested? There's also the Springfield Sportsman's show at the end of the month: http://thebige.ntelligentsystems.com/ns/calendar/ViewEvent.asp?EventId=79

Unhappy it is ... to reflect that a brother's sword has been sheathed in a brother's breast, and that the once happy and peaceful plains of America are either to be drenched with blood or inhabited by slaves. Sad alternative! But can a virtuous man hesitate in his choice?
