A friend and I had to make reqular trips to Chicago on one project.
Seeing the Architech/Engineer was a waste of time but eating at the
Hoff Brau and A&F was the highlite of the trips. The people at A&F
would let us look at and handle all the guns we wanted. You could
pick up and play with a .505 Gibbs, 416 Rigby etc. All kinds of
double rifles, drillings etc. Very nice people, they knew we were
hicks off the farm but they treated us like we were on our way to
Africa. I usually bought something there cheap but somethig.
