Was at the Ohio Gun Collectors Assoc. show today and low and behold there he was! Hank the man Jr. himself!! Even though his name tag said Henery Williams it was him. The gun shop I go to was there and they wheel and deal with Hank all the time on old Winchesters and Colts. Hank had a table set-up and was selling some of his excess stuff. He was setting there with no one at his table when the manager of the store introduced me to Hank Jr. Shot the breeze with him for about 5 minutes untill I dragged myself away from him. He asked me what I was looking for and I said "Anything Contender" He mostly had old Winchester 1886's and 1st gen. Colts. Someone asked him how life's been treating him and he said" I've made enough to buy what I want, do what I want, and be where I want , and today I can't think of anywhere else I 'd rather be than right here". Told him how honored I was to meet him , shook his hand and strolled on down the ailse's. He walked around later on to look at misc tables(unbelievable show) and I don't think many people knew who he was when he was standing right beside them!

I would be one of those people that would not have known it was him standing beside me unless introduced. It's cool you got to meet him!
