As I sit here thinking of what to write, one thought stands out in my mind - Jim Warren’s P.S. from the 1997 OGCA Show (see June 15 1997 TCN)- ‘Don’t be guilty of missing IT a second time." How true that seemed after spending May 8th and 9th at the 1999 Ohio Gun Co lectors Association Show.

Imagine if you will a building large enough to have not just one but two zip codes. Although I had been to gun shows previously and last years’s NRA Convention in Philadelphia, nothing prepared me for the actual size and scope of the OGCA Show.
