I bought some 7.62x51 Factory reloads, $50.00 for 100. This was from Grizzly Ammo, large display in the room to the right. Ammo looks fine, military brass. Time will tell on how it performs. Also traded a guy some 30 carbine ammo for an M1A scope mount which is mounted up and waiting for a scope. (Does it ever end? :roll: )

You are correct Sir, there was a three day show last month. Wes Knodel is currently still following the old Lewis and Clark Trader show schedule, so you will also see another show in January, and then nothing until the April show (as it has been for quite some time).
I can no longer sit back and allow Communist infiltration, Communist indoctrination, Communist subversion and the international Communist conspiracy to sap and impurify all of our precious bodily fluids.

I honestly thought that this weekend would be my last gun show. I've been going to these - almost everyone - for more years than I care to admit. (They were annual or semi-annual when I started - bad case CRS so I can't be sure.)

At any rate - I was fairly disappointed by the 3 day show last month. So I went to this one thinking it would be my last. However fate must want me to keep attending. I found a nice shotgun at a good price - some magazines for a S&W pistol I needed, and a few other items at decent prices.

So yes - there are deals to still be had there. I was refreshed and will be attending the January show provided my Gun Fund has recovered by that time.

I've said it in the past - it only takes one good deal to make the show worthwhile - otherwise it's just entertainment.

Thanks,
