You just don’t see a good quality Yellow Boy much anymore.  What one or two shows would you put at the top of your list for one, presumably out west?

I can’t make it anywhere near that soon.  I was thinking about a trip when I retire, hopefully in the next 2 years.

From the list, I can plan on a trip out west for a few days.

I have seen some very nice 1866’s at the Cody show, if your wanderings take you to Texas the TGCA shows in Denton, TX have had a few 1866’s in recent years, even had a “Parade of Brass” featuring the Volcanic, Henry and 1866 a few years back. Scott Tarbell had a few at his recent show in Durant. I’m not qualified to judge quality but I certainly like seeing these guns at collector shows.

Every year you can go to Vegas in January, Greeley Colorado in May and Cody in July.  Tulsa is in April and November.  There is the Big Reno show 3 times a year, the Texas Gun Collectors shows and Scott Tarbell’s shows for starters.
