The Alabama Gun Collectors Association (AGCA) show is this weekend at the Birmingham Jefferson Civic Center (BJCC) complex in Birmingham Alabama. Its usually are pretty decent show 600-800 tables. Sometimes chock-full of Japanese goodies, sometimes absolutely none. I'll be there with a Japanese Display of some sort (pistols probably), Look for 3 Japanese flags on easels behind my table. Display theme is Old West Cowboy era (I wonder if Guns of the far-far-far-west would be in theme?). Hope to see you there. Trey

I didn't pay to much for that old Arisaka, I just bought it a little bit too soon!

AGCA show is pretty slow for Japanese items, but if you want to see some awesome cowboy era gun displays, you need to try and drop by. A few 99s noted, an excellent 'family' souvenir bringback display, including a nudie trench art decorated US mess kit, double barrel flare gun, bayonet with capture papers. I picked up a photo album, about half JNLF photos and the other half army and misc US photos. Got to see the Taisho 14s #s 66 and 67, have pictures to post later. Just amazing.....

Dale, no problem. I wish we'd had better lighting. Trey
