    Take your time. The Shriner are letting the GCGF mods in an hour before opening so we can have first crack at the good deals.

    In your life,work takes priority over a gun show . . ?? You need to look for something that will free you up for the really important things in life. ----SAWMAN

    I hope it is as good as it used to be back in the day. If Sawman is right about the Sammy's girls Valet parking ya'll better remember to bring lots of dollar bills. :)

    I heard that mods get "special" treatment from the Hooter's girls .... soooooo ..... better try to make it.
    Also .... anyone that shows up in a GCGF t-shirt will be awarded a Sammy's girl for the show to be his gun show guide for the day. He will also be given a signed t-shirt that sez "I'm your buttcake".
    Sean is going both days. --- SAWMAN

    Hadji Shrine? What's the story with that place? Driven by it a bunch but never knew what it was, really.
    Hadji Shriners are a fraternal order of Masonry. We own and support twenty two childrens hospitals called Shriners Hospitals for Children. All the care we provide is at no cost to the patient or their family. Check out this link www.beashrinernow.com for more info.

    I am not familiar enough with the Shriners and/or the Masons to comment on their makeup and how they operate. I am familiar enough with them to know what good work they do.
    The Haji Shrine is simply a meeting place for the groups I suspect. I would also guess that the Haji Shrine can be rented as a meeting place for different events. Only one of which is a gunshow.--- SAWMAN

    Saw man you are somewhat correct. This show is being put on by Hadji nobility as a Shrinr temple function like it used to be back in the 90s. All shriners are masons but not all masons are shriners.

    I used to attend the shows they had there. I would've guessed there hasn't been one since the late 80s. Been a long time.

    I did not know that the Hadji Temple was still having gunshows. It has probably not been since the late 80's that I have attended one there. I saw the signs on the highway and googled for information and ended up finding the information on the forum here. i only go there to gunshows to look for odds and ends. I get better deals on firearms from local dealers. If there is inexpensive .22 lr ammo that would be a plus. I shoot large quantities of it per year and if it were available at decent prices I would likely be shooting 20-30 k rounds a year.

    I will after doing some chores head over there. Used to be more non-dealers at that show then is the case now days at most and I liked that. I can find things that are interesting. I suspect that it was easier for their brothers to get a table in the back, but that is solely a guess on my part. I had family on one side that were masons and the aunts were members of something related IIRC the Eastern star or something like that. This was many years ago out in the western states. Uncle said that I should join but he could not tell what it was that he and they did Lol.
