2002 Luger get-together

This was the only get together I have been too - specifically called that. Since that time, I have gotten together at a yearly shoot that a friend has, at Chattanooga they have a yearly AutoMag get-together, and of course at Allentown and Louisville.
Made a lot of friends. But this was my first time where I met a lot of collectors and probably doomed me to collecting!

This shared album is taken with a very old (new then) camera in 2002, and probably a shaky hand

Kind of out of order, the first group of pictures was the last night, when we had a dinner sponsored by Ralph Shattuck - was nice - then there are pictures of Friday night when we went to GT's house and some folks showed guns and we talked, maybe 20 people?
The this is Ralph's collection (since sold at auction) and some of his stock. We could look and touch anything, as long as we wore white gloves, hey, why not. Lots of interesting items. Some probably questionable, some excellent, all I knew was that I was a brand new collector!
