I went to eat some pizza around 11:20.
I closed up around 3:15, show thinned out a lot.
Handed out one box if CFF business cards.
About ten members stopped by and we had a nice chat.
Sorry I missed anyone.
Would someone PLEASE buy that Smith 1911 from Cubrock? It’s drivin’ me bonkers.I met Button Pusher at the table this morning. Hung out at Cubrock's tables too.
Damn............This show had the most non-firearm related merchandise I have yet seen at a gun show. I'm tempted to estimate a third of the vendors belonged at the flea market area of the fairgrounds, but that might be low.
Picasso Pawn had large selection of used pistols.
The big reloading vendor was not there.
Dud see the new Ruger Wrangler.
I was told that Jeppo was seen waddling down the isles. I said yep that was Jep. We went to lunch before he went to show and both of us ate way to much Sushi. I could not walk because I ate so much and he ate one plate more than me. But it was worth it.And there may be a chance to spot Jeppo.
I was definitely suffering a food coma.I was told that Jeppo was seen waddling down the isles. I said yep that was Jep. We went to lunch before he went to show and both of us ate way to much Sushi. I could not walk because I ate so much and he ate one plate more than me. But it was worth it.
Picssso definitely had some good deals.
Mack, the big reloading vendor in the back, has terminal cancer. He is unlikely to be with us long, from what I have been told.
Blue Collar is there, though.
Looked at a lot of ammo and not impressed with pricing.
So Picasso Pawn has a bunch of pawn shops but only deals firearms from their store in Durham on Roxboro St. and also used to only sell through Gunbroker. I have bought from them that way. Lately I noticed they stopped listing on Gunbroker so I asked them what was up and they said they are trying the Gunshow route to see how that goes, also mentioned that they may even open a storefront just for this piece of their business but that sounded iffy.
They price low-ish, they like to keep the money moving but when you consider these guns were bought at pawn prices they are still making a healthy buck on the sale.
It’s like I don’t even know you anymoreI may go late Saturday. I've got Paw Patrol live to attend early Saturday morning.
I buy my hollow points from gun shows. There are a few places where buying loaded ammo makes more sense than buying components to load, like 44 special or 45 colt for less than 40 cents per. But for plain ammo to go bang you're right, gun shows ain't muchGunshow ammo pricing hasn't been good in... well forever. Unless you usually shop retail. Outdoor limited, sgammo, etc beat show prices to your day every day of the week.
That’s good ammo I have purchased about 10000 rnds from him. Just placed an order for another 6000.There was a vendor selling new 9mm for $145/1000 and .223 reman for $200/1000. Including a metal ammo can.
Those seem like good prices. I grabbed a thou of the 9mm.
Wish I had seen the 9mm for that price....would have picked up some myself.There was a vendor selling new 9mm for $145/1000 and .223 reman for $200/1000. Including a metal ammo can.

I actually like working them. And a plus we acquired 2 new sponsors and several new members at the last showWhen a guy volunteers to setup, work, and teardown a show, Id say he has full right to take some time to himself throughout the weekend, especially when the the lull time comes.
If it werent for @LeeMajors I wouldnt do any shows.
I also stopped by and offered to watch the table if he needed a break. He didn't make me the same proposition .... thankfully.Just wanted to add that I stopped by the CFF booth and @Button Pusher asked me to help him go to the bathroom. I said: " Hold it right there, this is a Gun Show, not Show me a Gun. "
Here’s to all of you!When a guy volunteers to setup, work, and teardown a show, Id say he has full right to take some time to himself throughout the weekend, especially when the the lull time comes.
