I'll be there with "Big Steve" the ammo dealer in our regular spot along the back wall in main room, near the food stand.

We'll be selling AMMO !!

This one was a lot of fun last time.

I'll be back, weather permitting.

Ahhh , my favorite gun show. And , yes , I go to this show mostly just to look and learn , and find parts for old guns. I'm always amazed at the amount and condition of beautiful and rare historical arms at this show. Kinda like a please touch gun museum.

Enjoy the history lessons.

Picked up an AK 47.....my first one.

Great show.

The show was great for buying parts but was incredibly slow for selling. Sold some ammo for for far less then i wanted but nothing else. I had a few vintage swords there but the offers were complete jokes. Was offered $50 for a $175 sword and the guy seemed surprised i didnt accept. My biggest laugh was a man walking around a badly bubba-tized t99 arisaka, all that was good on it was the knob, firing pin and buttplate, he wanted $275 but was willing to accept a 'real" offer.

I did pretty well myself. Sold a fair number if items and bought/traded a few as well. You are correct though; there were a good number of people attending who were not grounded in reality as to what some items were worth. Either as buyers OR sellers.
