    My Youngest son and I will be going on Saturday. I always like the Tipton show and the food vendor is the best of any Gun Show I have ever attended. Usually find a few things we can't live without!

    Father and I will be in Sunday morning. That is unless the deer movement picks up. I have a doe tag and he has a buck tag left. I have a feeling that the deer have gone into night time only mode. Tipton show is one of the favorites. Nice mix of stuff available.

    Went to the show this morning. Surprisingly large crowd. Several 3rd gen S&W's including (2) 3913's I spotted. That's more than I have seen at the last couple 1500's.
    Came home empty handed. Was more just browsing than looking for anything specific and it was a good excuse to get out of the house on a frosty Saturday morning.

    It was my first time at this show today. I was surprised by the number of vendors there and the amazing assortment of older guns and accessories. I was very tempted to buy a S&W revolver. I will be coming to future shows with more with more cash in hand

    One of my favorite shows. Up thread someone mentioned the crowd. Holy buckets, there were a lot of people there around 1pm. Lots of neat guns and, yes, this show always seems to bring out the older Smith & Wesson crowd. Bought a really nice El Paso Weaver. 2.5x4.5. (I think that's right). Was really tempted by a LNIB Sig Sauer Fastback Carry at $700.

    Sense Spring I had 4 to 5 does and 1 spike buck occupy my yard. The last time I seen then was the day before hunting season. They should be back Monday.

    I've always said a guy should look at what people are carrying in every bit as much as whats on the tables. That's where the deals are. Make a standing fair offer. Fair being the key word. I bought a really nice two-tone P229 Sig from a fellow that was being low balled relentlessly. He found me an hour or so after I gave him a fair price offer. Still have it. It's for barbecues and weddings. ;)
