    I won't be able to make this one but really interested in how it goes with respect to availability, prices, and foot traffic. Between work and COVID, I haven't been to a show since Summer 2019!

    Swung by today. Prices have not changed much. They did open the back end of the hall to add more vendors which was nice.
    I swear, it is like most of those guys don’t want to sell there goods at those prices. If they were reasonable I would be more inclined to buy stuff. I will still go but only for entertainment.

    Glad to read that someone from this forum attended the show!
    I noted lots of ammo on tables, lots of AR stuff, lots of new guns.
    I saw a post WWII MAS-36 for $875 and said "no" to myself.
    Same seller had a Sauer 38 pistol which seemed like a good gun and fairly priced.
    It was a regular tempo gun show for us, sold slings, holsters and a couple of bayonets.
    I had a few good chats with some regular friends and made a few new ones.
    I just hope the evenings rains didn't flood the hall!
    I can't believe the rivers of water running down side roads across the main roads!

    Down here sellers actually had the ovaries to put $1,100 tags on PSA and Anderson AR's

    I asked a friend. Could you ask that guy with the primers sign, how much he's selling them for. Since i don't want to laugh in his face.

    Sure enough $100 per 1k.


    I may have said YOU'RE #$% HIGH, more than 1-2x to vendors. GOOD DEAL ON 22. Only $25 a box of 100.

    Saw a billboard yesterday for a Tanner show at the Grizzly Rose in two weeks-indoor and outdoor. Interesting.

    Got an email from Tanner Shows.
    Grizzly Rose
    Vendors, we have an exciting ONE TIME event next weekend at the Grizzly Rose August 13-15th! We will have 200 tables inside, then we are fencing in their back parking lot putting a tent overhead, and 400 tables outside. Outside is where most of the action will be and where we still have availability but bring a battery as power will be a challenge for outside tables. We currently have 39 billboards around Denver advertising the first show so close to Denver in over two years. The outside tables will be secure, along with fencing all around we will have police lighting to ensure visibility for our two guards patrolling all night long.
    As you can imagine tents, our massive marketing campaign and venue rent are very expensive so inside tables are $100, outside tables are $80 and power is $50 for this show only. Inside tables can start setting up Thursday, we will not have an overnight guard but will deadbolt lock the doors with an alarm system. Outside tables can start setting up Friday at 8am. The southern and northernmost tent will have a sidewall to block the wind but the rest of it will be an open marketplace for gun and ammo with the best vendors in the west and if online ticket sales are any indication this is going to be a monster show. We have stuck our necks out there pretty far on this show so thank you very much for your patience and support.

    This will surely be a memorable show!
    Of course Gloria and I won't be there as we don't go out of town for shows anymore.
    I am sure someone will post about some great deal that I missed by not being there.
