nothing like some overpriced gun. or some ok priced ones that look like they were drug behind a pickup.
i should have gotten the glock 22 gen 2 that looked like it was drug behind a truck, for the low price of $550.
disappointed with the show, if your in the market for a gun this forum is the best place to look.

I saw some nice guns but they were proud of them. Ouch, for the first time in awhile I had money in my gun fund but all we're over priced. Guess I'll keep looking. Just not at this gun show.

From the gun shows Ive been to, its rare to find a steal or even a good deal. Too many uneducated buyers willing to pay big prices, theres no reason for them to price them lower. However, if youre looking for something inparticular or somewhat rare, gun shows are a good place to find them.

Went today as well, didn't see anything I wanted that I can't get cheaper buying from my local shops. So when I'm ready I'll buy locally to support the home area businesses.

It was nice to walk around with my son and see some nice weapons....yes overpriced. But I got to Meet Nighthawk, DOWMACE, and see HFMIC again. Nice to put a face with a name.......So I can't complain then again I didn't pay to get in.

That's me I'll buy local if I can find what I'm looking for. Oh I'm looking for a French Mas-49/56 in the original caliber(7.5). I've only seen one at all the gun shows I've been too.

i looked at a kimber eclipse 5 inch. ok shape had some scratches and scuffs but had a huge idiot mark up and down, and the guy still wanted 1200. the guns that i was interested in were just in really rough shape. i was trying to trade a browning buckmark, and one guy told me to come back if i couldnt trade it and he would insult me with a price. i informed him that i wasnt desperate and he just looked at me kinda disgusted

reddog i was just browsing, i want a glock 17 or 34. or a 1911 in a 45, or a ar in 308. nothing was priced right. i remember when you could go to a show and at least see some good deals. i am not trying to rob the dealers but a gun that is beat up pretty good that is priced like new is a little frustrating.
