August 18th/19th
Here we go again. Other than a rather small venue....this has turned into a good show. Junk/Gun ratio is very good. And let's be honest....more and more..kids and wives are showing up and there does need to be something for them to see. It actually benefits the guys by allowing them to stay a bit longer.
Decent-reasonably priced food from the vendor....UNLIKE the $6.00 burritos and $3.00 sodas at the Sertoma Show.
I swapped for a Marlin Camp 9 Carbine yesterday. Nice looking gun with the Blond stock. Always considered them to be pretty ugly with the factory turd-brown furniture.
As long as it is not like Tanner I will go check it out this weekend. I have lost my taste for gun shows since I started to go to Tanner. I remember going when I was a kid and it was like a treasure hunt with good deals all over the place, but since september 11 everything has changed and I have not had a good experience at a gun show for the last five years.

Yeah....short drive is good....not much gas and no hotels. Feel free to stop by and say hi. It's good to sit down once in while when walking around in a gun show....and I always like a chance to go take a pee :)

Well it's no Tanner Show for sure. Small enough to really take your time and look closely at each table....and the vendors want to actually sell stuff. Mostly because there aren't 5,000 people coming in after you. Hope to see you there.

Bringing a friend down to check it out - not looking for anything in particular, but hopefully there's some good deals!

Cool-just ask for Rich and Amy's tables at the door and they will send you right to us.

Is this the outlet mall right off I25 at the Loveland exit? Thinking of coming, I'm looking for some surplus .308

Yes, just West of I-25 on Highway 34. Turn right in the the first exit for the Park and Ride....and it will put you right in front of the Show. Open Sunday 9-4.

What is the admission charge? I have been considering going but always skip it.

$8
I went and was rather disapointed. Sometimes its good and I find a good deal and actually see some cool stuff. This time it was rather small with what seemed like 25% tables being either knives, leather, jewelry, or silly little nick nacks.

Went to the show today, and somewhat Blah. Seemed like an awful lot of knife vendors there. One interesting item was a Kel-Tec KSG Shotgun. Only problem was the guy wanted $1800 for it (MSRP is somewhere around $800, as I recall). Just nutty. However, some good prices were seen on pistols...

I was at that area for o CL deal. Between the traffic and kids trick/ treating it was a #$%^ horror show even being on 34.
