Wow! Time for another show at the NFFG this weekend.

Any reports yet on todays show?
Crowded my friend. Crowded. Although there were some deals on ammo, relatively speaking. A couple decent gun deals. Everyone trying to capitalize on the newer stuff. Glock 41 and 42s were over priced by 50-130 dollars. That's just my take though.

Same old stuff . I went with a friend that wanted to go . We talked with several old friends and fellow gun enthusiast . And look at bunch of over priced guns and ammo that in many cases is the same guns and ammo I looked at for the last two or three years. Basically just the same bunch taking their gun collection out for a walk. And as always Tim was there selling cans and as usual I bought a couple from him. There was very little powder there and none that I was looking for. Other than picking up a few cans from Tim and buying a candy bar from a friends daughters fund raiser it was a waste of time and eight bucks.

Funny, $8 is cheap for a gunshow. Most of the shows I have been to lately are charging $10 for even the small shows.
My son and I went small town gun shop hopping and found a box of 100 Speer 150 grain spitzer 8mm bullets for $10, a bunch of unusual cartridges for $1 each (like 9.3mm Mauser, a rimmed .46 cal round as long as my middle finger, .444 Marlin, .220 Swift, a .308 case necked down and loaded with a .22 bullet, etc) for my "collection", and a Chinese SKS with a bayonet for <$200. No crowds, either!
I'm not saying it's not worth it. I am commenting on it being up 40% in the last few years.
