What are local gun shows like now?

If it doesn't fit in any of the other forums, post it here!

Prices were almost identical at the 01 FFL's that were about half # of the last show. Spent a great morning with 2 old buds, didn't spend a dime. Joe

I did not make that show, where there a few dealers at least that with some older guns??? Orlando's show for me has always been light on older guns and usually there was maybe 10 to 20 tables of dealers bringing older items.

Any thing really cool at it?? Usually something always cool shows up..

OK, I tried.

I really did.

I even hinted at it in another post.

I CANT STAND IT ANY LONGER!

ITS WERE, NOT where!

Were and where are two different words!

They are NOT interchangeable!

AHHHHHHH! I need to go kick a puppy!

I don’t bother correcting on line grammar. I’d be booted from many forums. The worst is people incorrectly using there, their, & they’re. How did they graduate from public school? GARY.

I can usually let those go unless where is being used instead of were and has there in front of it.

There where?

Really?

This is the worst when someone doesn’t use any commas punctuation marks or period when they have a like new in the box clearing out the safe for sale piece will stay firm on the price for at least a day will drive to make a deal or save yourself a few bucks for face to face deal what do you have for trade but you know cash speaks louder

Not that I saw. Ever since the guy (can't remember his name) with the S&W's in the center of the big room left maybe 5 years ago, there's been one here and there. Nothing "cool", the "Beckwith tables" got moved randomly in front of the "safe/ hidey room" end of the little room. They usually have some nice unusual items but everything was piled randomly and we didn't want to do an "archaeological exploration." It'll schlep back into a rerun Aug 21-22 if'n you missed it.

Speaking of people who are MIA at the Orlando show, I don't remember seeing the cowboy gun guy the one with 2 or 3 tables of Uberti's and Taylor's.

...And the "dozen table milsurp guy" and..... Fact is all the "old timers" are gone. Like I said, drive up to the Shoot Straight store in Apopka, save the $12 for lunch. Ain't $5 difference one table to the next for that P365. Joe
