Wow.
First time at the "World's largest gun show".
Yeah, it was a lot of tables and a lot of guns.
I walked for 4 hours and still didn't view every table.
Surprisingly, there were (seemingly) more used guns than new guns which is why I go to gun shows anymore, but dang, the prices.
Why are folks asking $1200 for a Ruger Old Army? That's a $600 gun most days of the week. One vendor had six (6) of them and the cheapest was $1,000.
So many Ruger Blackhawk 44 Mag revolvers that were so overpriced that I couldn't even comfortably touch them. There were a bunch of Henry 410 lever actions, all priced at (Please do not touch without permission) prices.

I left empty handed and I seriously came to buy something. Now I guess I'll just buy some reloading supplies online.

Got there around 115 and wandered around until about 530. Scored Magpul g17 mags for $8 each. Almost bought some reman 9MM for $150/500 then realized that's the same priced I've been paying for WW white box.

People need to learn to not wall side by side and stay to one side. Saw more scooters today than I've ever seen.

Edited you correct price.

9mm is going for $300 and under for 1K all day long right now. Dunno why you'd pay that.

I didn't get there until about noon, so parking wasn't too terrible.

Very few modern guns to be found (that are non meme tier anyway). Lots of old school guns if that's your thing. Fun to look at, but not something I was in the market for currently.

Did find a good deal on one of the 3 guns I was on the lookout for, so I wasn't mad about it. Sure wish all the folks sporting backpacks realized that they make them bigger then they normally are when they suddenly stop and turn sidew

Don't forget to **** your pants and put some kind of sticky stuff on your fingers, and sleep in the car in the clothes you wear in.
Hell it ain't a HOBO Convention !!

After driving around the parking lot for 15 min trying to find a parking spot, I figured its probably worse inside and went home... I can find overpriced guns and ammo at Bass Pro if I want them that bad :D
