500+ Tables

**Sandcut** · October 6th, 2015, 07:33 PM

Is this a new venue for a show? I haven't seen a show listed for this place before.

Does anyone know how many of the 500 tables are expected to be filled?

I may take a ride over to check it out (or I may go hiking). Anyone else from NEPA planning on going?

This the 2nd year.
Rink floor was filled with tables, and the hall, aisle, whatever you call that runs around the upper section had tables.
Don't know the table count, though.

Meh, it was an OK show I suppose. I can't see that there was 500 tables if the show at Oaks or Split Rock are around 700.

Pros - Here was a nice selection of older hunting rifles, including some old, collectable lever actions and some nice older .22 pumps. One semi-custom knife maker there had some nice skinning knives for about $80. Pretty reasonable. I saw a CZ Scorpion, which was pretty cool and a Colt Trooper .38 that was in nice shape.

Cons - Not as big of a variety of vendors as I had hoped. I was hoping that there would be somebody there with some first aid supplies and a better selection of knives. I was also looking for decent, used .22 and/or .22 magnum rifle, but didn't see anything that grabbed me for the prices being asked.

All in all, I rank it above the show at the Scranton Ice Box, below Split Rock, and maybe on par or slightly below Wind Gap. I don't know why, but I like the Wind Gap show for some reason. I always find something there. Didn't buy a thing today.
