At the first "gatherings" we usually had a Friday night icebreaker at my house, Ralph included! with a few "refreshments" and prime rib roast for evening snack....And to plan who went where and when, to Ralphs Luger armory.... small groups only as I remember. And, as it was even then, pretty taxing on Ralph, short visiting periods... The Friday evening events were a small gun show in themselves, as Ron Wood and several others brought out "safe queens" that most of us could only dream about ever seeing... and passed them around!!...

....That was a really fun time, and certainly bonded some, if not most, of us into lifelong friends...

... Here's to the "Good'ol'days!...

....Best to all, til...lat'r....GT

Ralph is interviewed toward the end of the Tales of the Gun program, and can be seen on Youtube at Tales of the Gun: Luger (4/5), http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9vYq1...eature=related.

It must have been a special occasion, I've never seen his gun room in such good order that you could fit that many people in it ... much less have the horizontal surfaces clear enough to have sitting room for some folks !!

I dont remember the story on this engraved hunting carbine or the big Luger someone had made for Ralph. I could spend hours in that room finding the most interesting Lugers and things.
