Hot Fun in the Summer

Ok...

This is awkward... Six months with no post... And the last one was about Christmas music and movies... Nice.

I can make some excuses about why I haven't posted about Colorado's 30-round magazine ban (boo), Illinois finally allowing concealed carry (yay), or nonsensical political posturing on both sides of other attempts to (de)regulate gun ownership or use (double boo).

I'll get there, but a lot of my time lately has involved blowing up armored vehicles, taking over the world, or catching up on various TV shows on Netflix...

I have also been trying to hook up other professional opportunities... This August, I will FINALLY get a chance to expand my one day "firearms and museums" presentation.

Thanks to an invite from the Campbell Center for Historic Preservation Studies in Illinois, I will teach a three-day class in firearms conservation. This is intended for museum professionals and related folks, but can fit just as well for collectors.

If the course description doesn't do it for you, feel free to look at the instructor's LinkedIn profile...

I understand that it may seem a bit expensive, but there is lots of good stuff in the class. If you have questions, give me a holler or shout at the folks at the Campbell Center!

Cheers! (and I'll try not to be such a stranger...)
