    Arts and Crafts show. Almost as bad as Sertoma but at least you find some stuff there.

    I went. I didn't see anything firearm related I really wanted to buy. At least not every other table was beef jerky/jewelry/purses. I did get a great deal on a Camelbak Motherlode pack.

    ...Is it just me, or do all new non-1911 pistols (AKA plastic/Tupperware/polymer) look the same these days? I looked at several tables full of pistols and they all looked the same.

    ...I must be getting old....

    Save your $8.
    About 10 rows, prices seemed Lke nobody wanted to sell anything!
    One guy wanted $5 for one Mosin stipper clip!!!
    One lady refused to sell me something she had on display! Said she needed to do more research on the item(1911 Commander Grips) and that she would have them at the next show! WTF! You want my money or not!
    This was my nephews first gun show so he was stoked. I wish there was a Tanner I could have blown his socks of with.

    If your real bored then go!
    I had some cash burning a whole in my shorts and could not find a pistol I would pay for. They do all look alike!
    I still have my stamp and can't think of a reason to go back if I needed to.
    Stay inside where it is cool!

    Went. In & out in 45 minutes & looked @ everything.

    I did buy 2 GI woodland camo ponchos in great condition & 2 liners for them for $40.00 total. Also considered getting a Bushnell 800 yard laser rangefinder for $150 but need to do my research on these a bit more first.

    Oh, and I picked up about 60 targets too.

    Overall, even with the $1 off coupon, it wasn't worth the entry fee.
