Thanks for posting these photos of Don and his award winning display. Truly a collection of Ruger history. I think Don is a magnet to the ladies? Great guns, great display and a great guy! Brass Frame/Lee E

That display and the Rugers are obviously chick magnets which only fuels the fire. I'm not sure that Memphis in May was worth missing this show for. Hoping that next year I can make it down to help.

The good looking ladies are just attracted to our Mr. Findley.
I can hardly wait for Tulsa in November, then the NRA Collectors Show in Dallas in November and then the NRA in Indianapolis next April. Mike, you have to make it to Indy!!!

We (ROCS) made our presents known as a quality Collector organization at the NRA Meetings in Dallas last May. The silver medal won is not attributed to one individual but was a joint effort. Lee Newton is is responsible, more than anyone, for that award. Without Lee's coaching and persistence there would be no medal. It takes a very special firearm to receive this award. It must be the proper firearm and be presented to the Judges correctly. Every year ROCS should submit a firearm for consideration for this award. More than one may be submitted. Each year the ROCS NRA exhibit will feature a different theme. It don't matter who owns the submitted gun/guns. ROCS is only 5 years old. We have won 2 silver medals. If we could pull off another it would be quite an accomplishment.
