Richmond gun show - how'd it go?

[JCAJR30]

I'm on the road this week - most weeks - so I didn't get a chance to indulge. How'd it go? Any diamonds in the rough?

i might make it tomorow, but it doesnt look promising

 

[JCAJR30]

you attending doesn't look promising - or the show doesn't...

I talked to a guy on the phone - said they have plenty of ammo.

Lots of people there Sat. morning, No real bargains that I saw.

Did pick up a new ruger 22/45 with factory threaded barrel.

Next to Dave B. at Marcolmar for another suppressor.

I'm probably going tomorrow. I haven't been to one in Richmond since an unloaded gun was fired a few years ago.

Wow - didn't hear about the negligent discharge...

Its always the unloaded ones you gotta worry about

I was there...It was....OK. There was a gentleman there with a lot of ammo, he usually sets up at the central indiana gun shows, R&R I believe is his business name, I have bought and traded with him several times and he always treats me right. Not a lot of traffic while I was there, pretty dead. But that is pretty much the whole town anymore. It seemed like there were quite a few people (not vendors) trying to sell guns there, but there weren't any huge deals that I saw.

Thanks for the intel Yukon - sounds typical for Richmond. It's a shame to have seen all the industry leave that town and then to experience the subsequent degradation. All the more reason to CCW - desperate people employ desperate measures.

When i was a child I remember all the "feed ethiopia" propoganda. I remember asking my father, "why don't those people move to a land that has resources?" Now I understand the global and even local implications.

That's far enough down that rabbit trail - sorry...

It was a great show for me 2 new to me pythons, one at a steal. Did seem a little under attended but I was ok with that. I like small shows so I would rate this one a "Good Show"!

 

[JCAJR30]

booth or private transaction (p2p)?
