2009 Dixon's Gunmaker's Fair: Photos

Additional photos from Dixon's Gunmaker's Fair from 2009. The majority of these photos are of the HCH events and members.

These are from a disk of images that were sent to the blog. Somehow these images were not posted. Even though they are from 2009 it is fun to see everyone. I think I spotted an image of Bruce Horne judging.



























Photographs supplied by J Kiselica.
