    I'll probably stop in tomorrow regardless. Drooling over a bunch of guns is never a bad way to spend a little time.

    Pretty sure I was right behind you in line Nate.

    Mike's booth had good prices on most of their guns. Nothing I was looking for, but that was a relief to see...

    I've never been in AA Tactical, but judging by their prices, I doubt I ever will.

    Saw some 100rd bricks of CCI .22lr for $17

    I left $12 poorer, (paid for the GF to get in)

    Yes, SSDD.

    Had a few nice military arms displays I thought and at least it was different vendors to look at for the most part. Of course Jays took up a whole row! I did pick up two 50 cal ammo cans for a fair price I thought. $12 each in mint condition.

    I do wish I knew more about the older stuff... there was a bunch to look at.

    Saw a few Pythons in the $3000 range... blah.

    It never hurts to want..... But you sure do not sell much. Those guys will gripe about no buyers being at the show..... Funny that.

    Bunch of over priced guns. 22 Ammo was rediculously priced. Never been to a gun show with $600 and couldn't walk out with what I wanted.

    No doubt. Walked in with $1000 cash and left with $988... though I did consider buying a piece of cake. Looked damn good.

    I went to it. The rows between tables seemed a little tight. Lots of people there late morning sat. The show was ok, but no cheaper 22 lr there for sure. I purchased a few things like a couple 20 rd AK mags. I like that size capacity and I have to see if they work. They look combloc which I like. Picked an odd box of .357 sig and some .30 cal projectiles. The most positive aspect is that the Shriners will use the profits for worthy projects and the show promoters for the private at the fairground or elsewhere put the profits in their own pockets. Choice of where I want our local money going to is obvious.

    Sorry John. Thought you looked familiar but I see dozens of white guys with short haircuts and I was trying to find Sean's number in old emails while I waited in line.

    Saw lots of people but no good deals.

    I Thought the show was ok, bought a bunch of raffle tickets from the Shriners and other Masonic orders that were there. I had a stroller and the tight aisles were a bit of a pain. Some of the smaller dealers and collectors were crazy priced
