6th ANNUAL SHILEN SWAP MEET

Hello and good afternoon,

 

It’s getting close to that time of the year again, time for the 6th annual Shilen Swap Meet.  We hope that you will not only attend but also post the enclosed flyer in a visible location and help to pass the word to interested people.  ANYONE can set up a table or just back their truck up and drop their tailgate.  There are NO fees or costs and we will persevere rain or shine!  There will be gun stuff everywhere, buy and sell as much as you like.  There will be complementary chili, frito pie and drinks.  Don’t miss out.

 

“Swap Meet Barrels” will be BACK.  These are barrels that we have from customers who ordered a certain contour, or caliber and then change their mind and wanted a larger contour, different caliber, or something else.  In the name of customer service we have let the customer change their order and then place the barrel back in stock.  If we have another order that matches it, then we use it to fill the order and move on.  But per customer requests now, at swap meet time what is left is offered at discounted prices!!  All warranties still apply; these are NOT of lower quality or factory seconds.

 

Factory Tours will be given again this year.  During the morning tours, 8:00 am until 11:00 am the drill, ream and rifle machine will run.  Tours will continue in the afternoon but no machines will run then. 

There will be FREE sign up for drawings to be held at 9am, 9:30am, 10am, 10:30am, noon, 12:30pm, 1pm and 1:30pm.

 

So here is the important information:

Fritos in a bowl with chili on top. Excellent, artery clogging food. Goes well with Dr. Pepper. Wink

But, need to move that date to May 5 when I'll be headed to Big Bend area to hunt some of those pesky pigs (javelina).

Tbird 1960. I owned a 1959 Tbird. Jennifer sure did make a misprint. Wade said a while ago that they were going to also sell some of the old obsolete reamers also.
