March 19 6 Shooters Show, Greensboro.....How is it?

[Sharps40]

As queried, worth the walk about with a couple revolvers to sell/trade or is it all chinesium knives and hand held sparker thingies?

Been 2 years but it was small and not much of an offering except what cubrock had at this tables.

Thanks. I may go and walk about with some stuff to sell. Havnt been to one in years and the big Raleigh shows are an exercise in having your ass rubbed 7 times a minute...mostly by sweaty fat guys wearing plate carriers.....small show will be nice for a change

Understand when he says 'small show' he means SMALL.
They cram a bunch of tables in at this one, but it's not a large space at all. You'll still get rubbed on a bunch due to the cramped space.
When I think of big shows I think about the old Dixie Show, or even the 'new' Dixie. This is about a 1/4 of that size. Not much fluff, but not much stuff, really, due to small space.

I like the 6shooters shows, but this one is a bit too far for me to seem worth it. It's dang near an hour for me, out in the sticks.

Good enough show for me. Queried at the door by LEO interested in one revolver I had for sale. He thought too long, 10 steps in the door I was stopped, revolvers reviewed and had a solid cash offer from a dealer for both. 60 seconds car to cash. Spent 15 minutes reviewing the available stock for sale which consisted of Smith 15-22s, carved stock 10-22s, 1 ruger pistol caliber carbine, 40eleven glocks, Ninteen27 Sig P365s, 240 million Heritage revolvers, an inland m1 carbine for $2400, 3 rock island 45 automatics (one with the hideous pickatitty knife and bayonet rail) and a single rock island officers.

and........

no fat guys rubbed my butt.

And....glory of glorys, there were no Low T male attendees wearing plate carriers.

Overall, i liked it better than the big Raleigh show for just that fact.

Yup....it was small. say under 2000 sq ft.....a bit over the size of a nice 3 bedroom country ranch house.
