Darned,
I'm not usually allowed to sit at such fancy tables. I wish I could be there, it would be worth shedding the Burkenstocks and bluejeans to attend such an event.

It was a very pleasant afternoon. Those who didn't show up missed out on some great deals on gear, great company and great snacks.

Reysc, thanks again for making all this happen. I hope there will be another swap meet in the future.

Well it was fun!! I have never seen so much bargain.HV was selling ( should I say, giving away?) quality holsters for almost half price!! I bought four holsters for 1911 and 9mm glocks. Got an entry level reloading press for $20.00 bucks LNIB!! Thanks Fosforos and Mrs. Fosforos!! Some of my friends showed up and took advantage of the bargains at hand. Our Service manager bought a few hundred 40 S&W at the old price!! I manage to get a few boxes myself.Whew! that was fun.BTW, HV if you have one more of those grips you installed on my little snubby, I'll take it!! Will put it on my second one.The Wilson combat holster feels so comfortable w/ the compact and commander. The lefty Kydex for my 9mm Glocks is great too!! A good back up holster if and when when right shoulder goes under the knife.. Thanks again, HV!! I will post pics as soon as I get them downloaded. Janne and Regina, thanks for coming and can't wait till the next Gear Swap!! Hope ya'll enjoyed the refreshments,cookies,brownies and nachos!! I know I enjoed the company and of course my red wine!!

Reysc,
WOW is all I can say. This wasn't your oridinary swap meet. Thank YOU for hosting, providing the snacks, drinks and especially for dinner! It was so very nice to meet you and your friends! Sharing your company today was the most pleasant afternoon we've spent in some time!

HV,
Fosforos was drooling over that holster and he barely got home before he was playing dress up with it! He's very happy with the swap you made!

A very enjoyable afternoon indeed. Thanks Rey for being such a gracious host. I wouldn't be surprised if you own the club someday. THe snackers were first class as well.


Great to meet Mr & Mrs Fosforos as well as some of Reys friends. I'm looking forward to doing this again sometime.

Rey, I'll check on those grips for you. ;-)

I'm sorry we all missed out too! We had planned on going, but alas, life interrupted! I hope there will be a repeat SWAP at a future date.
