Has anyone been to this show? Any reviews? I didn't even know they had a show in Alexandria!

It's been awhile since we have had a show there. It's usually around 130 tables if I remember correctly, I won't have the exact table count until Thursday evening.

Well, apparently my memory isn't as good as it used to be. We will have a little over 100 vendor tables. Variety of vendors; guns (new, used and old surplus military), knives, ammunition, reloading supplies, magazines, jerky, ammo cans, military surplus, etc.

It was a good little show, well worth the admission.
I spent time bs'ing with Brian and his lady, lots of laughter Thank you Brian I really like those big targets you sell.
Giggled at a few Garands that were a few grand apiece and two Mosin 91-30's that were reasonable at $ 329.00 each.
Two different dealers had bricks of 22lr for 32 to 39 dollars for 500 Rd bricks, one was "other Dave" and a older man in the middle of the show. Lots of powder, primers, brass and bullets with at least two different dealers. Even a few VV two pounders of 550 powder for 60 dollars each, I bought both he had.
Lunch was good, a chilidog and a pop, spent a few hours talking and laughing with other Dave and at 5:00 headed back up north.

I went yesterday, first time in at least a year for me. I picked up a brick of the 20gr. Colibri .22lr for some super quiet back yard plinking. First time I've seen it under $50 in a very long time. My buddy sold a gun to one of the vendors and then got a great deal on 9mm S&W Shield.

If the post-panick, Obama/Clinton, craziness has subsided for a while I'll probably go to more gun shows

Hey Other Dave, was that you with the Colibri? If so thanks......I've been looking for that for a while!

Other Dave was just inside the door to the show on the left. He has bunches of mags and knifes for sale. He was selling some Remington 22's?
I believe the augila ammo table was the almost baldheaded man in the middle of the show. His prices were very reasonable.
