Default great show

The show was great, lots of stuff but inflation is affecting the prices. As a club, Western Command was there to advertise our plight with the provincial government attacking Military vehicle owners. I had my offending truck outside with my letters from the government denying my attempts to register my recently restored C60L winch truck. Inside we had posters and people talking up visitors and informing them about the court challenge we launched the previous week. Costs and hopefully some funds might be forthcoming as the legal bills have started coming in.
good crowd friendly as always but the food vendors need to step up their game.
One item that caught my attention was a handheld grenade cup discharger. I believe it must be vehicle related, it has two slots on the side of the cup, and have never seen anything like it. Any ideas?

Good luck with your court challenge and associated fundraising, Harry. I hope other antique vehicle clubs/groups/enthusiasts are also getting behind you to add more influence and awareness of what ICBC is doing.
Glad to hear the gun show was a success.
