Ruger Vaquero Matched Set
Sponsored
by:
Colonel David Nuss
Since its introduction to the firearm market in
1993, the Ruger Vaquero has been a leader in the
sport of cowboy action shooting. In the past
sixteen years, Sturm, Ruger & Company has referred
to it as “the gun that won the new west.” They now
introduce the completely custom NRA “2009 Gun of
the Year” Matched Set.
Each revolver in the set is made in America and characterized by 5 ˝”
blued barrels with gold roll marks, a color case finish on the frames, and
Hogue® – simulated ivory grips. The gold roll mark on the right side of
each barrel reads “NRA ‘2009 Gun of the Year’ Matched Set.” NRA custom
serialization of each set read as: NRAR-0001 and NRAL-0001 sequentially
through 1,125. Every exclusive set includes a custom Sturm, Ruger, &
Company commemorative red double revolver hard plastic case, which is
exclusive to Friends of NRA events. Also included, is an NRA/Sturm, Ruger,
& Company certificate of authenticity. |

Giclée “Bad Boys” by Eddie
LeRoy
Sponsored
by:
Award winning wildlife artist, Eddie LeRoy,
presents the unyielding 2009 Print of the Year:
“Bad Boys.” Set in the savannas of Africa, the
three cape buffalo’s display their stern
determination to protect the herd. These animals
have very few predators and have the ability to
protect themselves and their young. LeRoy depicts
these “Bad Boys” as they display their relentless
attitude of doing just that. The unsettled dust
and landscape gives a real representation of the
Cape buffalo’s environment.
In true Africa fashion,
the buffalo and oxpeckers serve to benefit one another as the birds feed
off the insects that hassle the giant beast. Leaving no detail to spare,
LeRoy creates a beautiful and uncompromising picture of the Cape buffalo.
Friends of NRA has reproduced this painting as a giclče; a form of fine
art that uses ink jet printing to perfectly capture every detail. Each
canvas comes in a Modena Vintage frame with oatmeal lining and measures 18
˝” x 35 ˝.” Every giclče is printed, signed, numbered to 1,125, and framed
in the U.S.A.

D’Holder Bowie Hunter
Sponsored
by:
Pikes Peak Gun Club
Once again, D’Alton
Holder has teamed up with upstate New York’s Canal Street Cutlery Co. This
time, the collaboration has led to the creation of this exclusive Bowie
Hunter. Holder’s worldrenowned experience in knife making has made his name
synonymous with precision and beauty, and the Bowie Hunter is no exception.
Created from one piece of 19C7 Sandvik specialty steel, each knife truly
represents the Friends of NRA.
The handle is fashioned
from top grain genuine leather, which has been peened, dyed, and stabilized.
The handle also features a recessed nickel silver NRA shield. The left side
of each blade is skillfully engraved by Baron Technologies, with a moose
profile and the Friends of NRA logo. Each knife is numbered 1 of 1,125 on
the blade and consecutively numbered on the tang by Canal Street Cutlery Co.
Accompanying the knife is a custom designed moose faux antler base. The
natural color and striations make it the perfect match for the one-of-a-kind
knife. This knife will make a great addition to any NRA home. |
