Forks of the Delaware July 10 (9-5) & 11 (9-2), Allentown AG Hall

[silent*anarchy]

went there this morning, bunch of empty tables, lots of the normal regular venders weren't there . lots of way overpriced guns, like run of the mill enfields for 700 and 800, lots and lots of crappy Jap and carcano boltless actions and a bunch of cutdown stock carcano rifles for $85. didnt see many people exchanging money. the backstabbing eagle arms were there.

So what was so crappy about my 2 tables of MUMed arisaka receivers or 8mm carcanos??

I've been going to gunshows for about 45yrs. The FODV show is unlike any other show I've ever been too. No flea market crap like Eagle shows. It a firearms history lesson and ''please may I touch'' firearms museum , and gun show. Don't remember when my first time there , I think I was still in HS. But I still see guns and stuff there I've never seen before in person , only in books or movies. Perhaps not as much as in years gone by , as sadly many of the old timers who knew and saw so much , and were happy to share their knowledge and experiences, have passed on.

They are just tomato stakes unless you have the parts needed to complete them because it will cost more than they are worth if you dont
