 What a joke that show was... It was pathetic...just really pathetic... Ammo was triple , quadruple priced... Almost ZERO MILITARY SURPLUS RIFLES or pistols... I was looking specifically for "C & E" Collectable historic firearms...MAKAROVS CHI-COM, ROMAINIAN , YUGOSLAVIAN (NONE), STAR 9MM (NONE), TURKISH MAUSERS 8MM($500$895??? WTF?? NO WAY ) Things were triple priced way out of my $$ reaches...I did find a "project" fixer upper Italian Carcano bolt action filled with cosmolene, missing a top forearm piece and some rust for $199.00 out the door..( rifle price, background chk $15?, and tax $12?...so the rifle was $172?) No AMMO AVAILABLE for it in the entire show, no 5 shot drop out MAGAZINES available, no strap, no bayonet) Hardly any guns at all...barely any Ammo either...if this is a precurser of future Uncle COol JoJo's AmerICAn gun show reality?? Count me out...I will just stop going to them and drive directly down to CLASSIC FIREARMS IN VIRGINIA and make a long weekend out of future collectable purchases...gun shows are a joke now and have NOTHING WORTH BUYING AT ALL. |

Why sell ammo at a gun show when you can fleece people online. |

Right now is not the time to buy anything gun related, including reloading tools, that you do not not really need. |

I'm guessing this is still the pandemic/election year thing in effect. Don't know that we can blame the regime change quite yet |

Gene agreed. I’m not even shooting much to keep my ammo numbers ok. |

EVERYTHING ELSE...NO WAY Shotgun ammo and .22s are supposed to be available. I just don't shoot shotguns much since there isn's a good place to shoot trap nearby. I have been shooting my .22 pistol. |
