Where 'down south' do you refer? Surrey Branch had an excellent display at the NRA open day at Bisley. I was particularly impressed by a fine display of wheel locks. There was another fine display by MLAGB members at the Shooting Show in Newark in February, and I have just received details from Monmouthshire Branch of a nice display at the Monmouth Country Show.

The attendance of the Durham branch at the Raby Castle Game and Country Fair on the 11th and 12th July was well supported .with a steady stream of punters for the have a go. The display also saw plenty of interest from the public and plenty of MLAGB and branch application forms were distributed with Saturday been the better day.

I particularly liked the old prints - the firearms are often displayed but the prints somehow add context and makes the arms display something more personal. David

The Raby Castle Game and Country Fair on the 14th and 15th August is larger than ever this year ,situated in the castle grounds at Staindrop, Co Durham,see Living Heritage Game and Country Fairs. The Durham branch of the MLAGB are a popular attraction where the public can Have a Go and shoot muzzle loading shotguns from the mighty 4 bore down to the 410 also the static display of antique weapons from the wheellock to the early breech loaders
