    What lines??? Got there last show at about 8:45 on Sun. & there may have been 20 or 30 people lined up. They sent these emails out to everyone on their mailing list, so there may be more on Sunday. Wonder if these will be 50 rd. boxes.

    I'd guess 50rd unless they make them smaller.

    Ditto on the lines, shwo two weeks ago but I heard it really sucked (slow). Maybe this one will have a little more traffic.

    Guessing that is why they are offering up the ammo and discount for vets. Lot of vendors are leaving. A lot more room between the aisles. Glad they are finally cutting the vets a break on entrance fee. Hope they continue with it.

    I will be up in Denver tomorrow again for my wife Lazik eye pre op exam.
    We are taking advantage of the hotel rates and staying the night at the quality inn. I will try to swing by first thing Sunday Morning. I always like to browse for smaller items.
    Will APEX be there this time???
    Hell, might even try to get there real early and score my fifty rounds of deuce deuce!!

    went to the show, was behind another COAR member in a blue tacoma this morning at a stop light in Boulder, got there at 9:15 so no lines, seemed somewhat busy as I was leaving around noon. No ammo cans for sale and a lot of way overpriced stuff still. The same guy had the same Century built L1A1 that he had 2 years ago for way to much then and now he is still asking even more. Came home with an Argentine FAL bayonet that I think I can flip and get my admission money back on.

    Gloria & I were set up in Denver today.
    Slow & steady seemed to describe the day.
    That mostly described our drive home to Colorado Springs!
    I hope Sunday moves along a bit quicker!

    This was the first Tanner I've been to in nearly a year. Usually I get there when they open and it is so jammed full of people by 11 you can barely move. Today was different. I didn't get there until noon and was surprised to see plenty of parking. Show was not packed at all. My favorite ammo vendor told me he is going out of business soon. Got a great deal on 230 gr Golden Saber ($20 a box). Saw a lot of overpriced garbage on other tables. Many of the usual vendors were not there.

    I heard they dropped 100 tables.

    We measured 12' between the aisles where we were. Probably almost double.

    I think we sold one IIIA vest today.

    I know *somebody* that found something cool at the show that only has overpriced worthless junk.
