So, Is this show worth taking a few hours to look over? Aside from the ND, sounds like the same old stuff.

When are these guys going to enter the information age and bring in new vendors???

I'd say that it would depend on if you were looking for something special. I scored a couple of getting scarce mags for a reasonable price. If you have an H&K 91 and wanted wood furniture for it there's one of them there. Other than a couple of things here and there it's run of the mill. End of March will be bigger show.

And if we could nail down exactly who's booth the ND took place at we could swing by there next time and ask what time the live demonstration would be.

Got there Friday at 2:00, no line. For the most part I took my time looking at tables instead of the usual glancing at the tables until something catches my eye. Lots of the usual parts, over priced hunting rifles, shotguns, and run of the mill black rifles. Lots of knives, jewelry, generic gun cases, etc. About a dozen empty vendor spots. Only thing I bought was a used, never fired Remington R1 Enhanced 1911 for $500 otd.

I have a few lowers I am building into pistols...looking for the general LPK kinda stuff, but want to get some parts that are not run of the mill. I have a couple stops where I know I can find all of the parts I need. A few extra ammo cans doesn't hurt either...

Carson, it wasn't 507 Outfitters. Unlike many dealers, they actually check their firearms before handing them to customer and after letting them handle the guns. Guys who did it are not at the show anymore. 507 is still there. Saw them at the show this morning. And they were busy! FAKE NEWS!

Well another exciting day at the gun show. Someone in a gray Altima was parked outside of the show with a cardboard sign listing guns he had for sale. I was walking by just as a plainclothes cop was asking for him to get out of the car and show some ID. There was a struggle to pull him out and I could see a gun in his hand. The cop instantly backed up and drew his weapon as did about 6-7 more officers. At that point I ran and got behind one of the police cars and worked my way into the building. I’d love to know what the outcome was. My other question is, why are people taking out their phone cameras and walking towards the event? In an active situation with 7-8 guns out who knows where any stray bullets might fly.

That sounds real fishy, not normal. May be a political stunt.

Yes I seen that to but I seen it after the excitement was over and the cops had yellow tape up around the car.

Honestly, I didn’t want to see anyone get shot and I certainly didn’t want to get sho myself. It was right around 10 AM
