Re: Monroeville gun show February 3rd & 4th Allegheny county
All three of the major Pittsburgh area gun shows have their own particular look and feel. Washington has the more down-home, good-ole-boy look and feel; while Monroeville has more of an aspect of what most modern gun shows have evolved to. PGCA, alas has degraded to it's current chronically sick old man status. All three shows have something to offer those who attend. As each one has it's own particular character, there will be ardent fans and detractors of any or all three shows.
As you stated it's really very simple: If there are types of vendors you don't care for, or vendors in particular you don't care for; just pass them by. Enjoy the rest of the show you are attending by spending more time with those vendors whom you do prefer or communing with friends. As for supporting or not supporting a show due to business or ethical considerations; that is a decision one can only deal with on their own terms.

I've always wanted to go to one of these but that no loaded gun requirement keeps me at home. Id hate to drive on out there to be greeted by Garrett.

I'll just interject: Concealed means concealed. If one conceals their carry piece and doesn't fidget with it then who's to know but you. Not offering a course of action mind you. Just reminder of a possible scenario.

I've never gone to a gun show without carrying.
The "big secret" is to not show that you are carrying.

Re: Monroeville gun show February 3rd & 4th Allegheny county
Anyone up there today and care to report? Considered going to see if I could sell/trade 2 handguns....probably not the best place to do so I would imagine?
Keltec P380 and a 70's vintage S&W Model 10 Heavy BBl .38 (Mil/Police).

Re: Monroeville gun show February 3rd & 4th Allegheny county
Went to the show on a Sunday for the first time. No line to get in (10AM) and it wasn't as busy as I 've seen it on Saturdays. Vendors were hungry for a sale. I had at least three tell me they were ready to make a deal while I was looking a their wares.
Saw some new vendors that I've never seen before and some old ones with the same inventory they had for the past few years. .22 ammo looks to be normalizing (bought some CCI Mini Mags). Saw some other deals, but nothing I was in the market for.
Got to handle a few pistols I was interested in. Glad I did because I didn't like any of them.Toujours prêt
