Gulf Coast Gun Show Disappointment

[Raven]

L

My experience was different than yours . Lots more vendors than last few shows . I found a few good deals .

Me too

Springfield

I saw a farely rare SA FAL there today too... worth any asking price, but I didn't bring enough to get it. I did get his number though. Same guy had a super rare model Norinco SKS with a supposedly factory original Norinco bipod too, and a M1895 revolver with a rare aftermarket 32 caliber cylinder. Made my whole afternoon just digging thru what he had

billy said he not planning on doing the milton show again

He will rethink that, I'm sure, when the gun grabbers spark another mad rush for all things guns and ammo

 

[Raven]

Yes , it’s entertainment and not a bad way to waste an hour or two .

Yep I spent a good half hour there just talking with old friends

He will rethink that, I'm sure, when the gun grabbers spark another mad rush for all things guns and ammo

which will come after the November general elections if the dems take the Senate and increase their majority in the House. This is now looking more and more possible. Then, in January when the new Congress and Senate passes Bidens assault weapons ban it will be all over. That mad rush will happen between late November and early January 2023. Hundred dollar Glock mags anyone?

Sorry I missed you. Glad it worked out for you . Another one in November , a few days before election .

I don’t understand what you guys are talking about. The Dems already have the majority in the house and senate.
I just don’t see them retaining that in November after the mess they’ve made.
I hate to hear the guy is not putting on any more Milton gun shows. I like it much better than the fairgrounds.
I wish they would bring back the Shriner’s show. It was great.

Loved the Shriner's show. I have purchased a gun every time I went to that show.

People just won't quit shooting guns inside the building. lol
Correct me if I'm wrong but didn't the Shriners pull their own security and door entrance detail?
If so, therein lies the problem.

 

[big jon]

The guy was a vendor and he actually shot another vendor during setup
not sure thats why they havent had another yet maybe some of you camel riders could tell us

 

[RidgeRunner]

that wasn't the first time.

 

[Southernlost]

I'm disappointed in the fwb gun showbas well

I'll be there probably

I bought my very first centerfire rifle at a Milton show. I'm going to miss it. I'm glad my kids got to go. Maybe somebody will pick up the torch for the next generation

 

[Jdcujo]

Just wait to see what they will look like after November. It will be like 2012 Cheaper than dirt in person.

That's already how it's been at some of them

Hold on seriously?

I liked when gun shows were like flea markets and people sold and swapped what they had. Now I see tables full of Alibaba Chinese knock off stuff and the same people lining up outside Academy to get ammo now selling it for double.

 

[FLT]

Academy took care of that problem for you, they charge scalper prices in the store now. They effectively cut out the middleman.

 

[Hinote]

I'm a camel rider lol. There was a discharge in the building but nobody was injured. Other than renting the building to the event organizers Hadji Shrine has nothing to do with the show itself. The show is not coming back because the organizers couldn't get along and went their separate ways. I hope that changes because it was a great show.

I had a great experience at my last two Mobile GS. I have recently been working on RETRO M16 builds and have founds some great stuff lately
