Default RE: Gun Show!!??!!

depends on the show and the sellers just like anything else....


my buddy owns a shop and when he goes to a show, he just leaves the price tags on from the shop for the most part....


nice thing is being able to do a little wheeling and dealing and doing a little talking...


i wouldnt expect to find any absolute steals....most sellers know what they are selling and what its worth....but keep your eyes open....

i dont know how large of a show you will be at, but i know the one i used to go to, youd need all day to do any serious shopping to get around the place atleast 1 or 2 times and ponder and think and compare and such....but, gotta be careful, could be gone before your back....most wont hold anything without money down because its not a sure thing and the next guy could have cash in hand and want it NOW....so be careful and smart about it....i wouldnt say jump on the first thing you see that you might like, but gotta be prepared for it to be gone if you do come back later...never know....

the one i used to go to was always packed...had to be pretty early and always lines...pretty much walked around slowly down the isles and looking at the tables...

working a show is mind boggling lol....soooo many different people.....i about went nuts lol...buddy had me and dad work/watch over his tables while he was doing paper work on sales and trying to squeeze in some of his own shopping.....fun time and im a sales man at heart lol...
