oldfarmer Posted May 26, 2016 Report Share Posted May 26, 2016 Good morning, I see there have been a couple of new posts regarding vintage guns and muzzle loaders. On Saturday June 11th we have our bi-annual Vintage Gun Day and Perrins Owners Club meet at South Worcester. Here are some details. Free admission - if you have an interesting pre 1914 gun you would like to display you will need a small padlock to secure it to the cord. Best send me an e-mail beforehand and I can let you have more details.

oldfarmer Posted June 7, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 7, 2016 Good morning, If anyone is going to bring along an interesting pre 1914 gun to show off on Saturday then please drop me an e-mail beforehand so I know how many display tables to get and run through details. The best e-mail to get me on is info@swsg.co.uk Looking forward to meeting lots of new people and seeing some interesting old guns - we already have promises of flinters, percussion, pin fire, tube and pill locks coming. As a taster - this is Lees recently acquired Perrins 10 bore on it's first outing - broke the clay as well. John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
