    I guess the older dude that sold Garands at the shows that was on the north west side of the show died. Too bad as I had planned to get a couple from him this year. He always had the two vertical rotating racks. stocked full of them.

    North west side of the show?
    Is that near the "housewares" department?
    I hear they have a new type of vegetable peeler out for sale!

    I'm tired, its late and I dont get the joke or the reference. The show floor is a square it has four sides that can be referenced by cardinal directions. as in North West corner..... I could have said walk in door turn left but most have a sense of direction. Presumably those that attend or work the show with some degree of regularity know who I am referencing. You are not lying though to say much of the show is non firearm related these days.

    I have always wanted to buy chain saw from Pasternack's Pawn Shop table, but then I realize there are better things to waste money on.

    I got a smokin deal on a nice set of JBL tower speakers there (right at the shop) years ago when I was collecting vintage stereo stuff... They were advertising items on CL.

    That dealer was Craig Tom. He passed away early last year. As for the carrot peeler vendor, I'd much rather have him that the pot pipes and jerseys dudes in the same area. Jerseys ok. No to pothead sh.t.

    OK so a night of sleep and re evaluating the response I quoted last night, the reference must be to whatever and whoever replaced his vendor table and what they are selling..... Up to speed now carry on.

    I bought my first Garand from him years ago. Sad to hear.
