Is that this weekend?
How does this show compare to the Indy 1500?
I'm looking for a 1911, but with the drive, the parking hassle and the cost to park and get in, I'm going to pass. Maybe another time. Thanks for letting us know about the show.
The next 1500 is in four weeks, just wait till then and save the hassle of buying out of state and having to do the transfer. I haven't been to the Louisville show for several years but the 1500 seems to have more modern guns. The Louisville show has more "collector" type guns. Think $25,000 shotguns, old cowboy Winchesters, military bring back stuff, etc.
As Dog1 said there are other big events including the big custom car show at the fairgrounds this weekend too. It will be crowded.
It will be stupid crowded, parking wise.
The last show I went to there, there was a basketball game, and 3 other events and it was a madhouse...not to mention the show it's self. Wall to wall people, standing in the middle of the isles, blocking movement, blocking tables, walking up against the crowd.
Tons of newbies, standing and drooling over guns.
Watched this one fool, at a table, drop the slide on a HK 4 times...I was about to tell him to not do it when the table owner came over to him.
He handled it better than I would have..
Would this be worth a 4 hour drive?
