    I'll check it out, I haven't seen them advertised like I did last year. Is this the first?

    This promoter has held successful shows at this Columbus venue several times over the last four or five years.

    But this is the first time during the summer months.

    Acme in Seymour has a NRA CUSTOMER APPRECIATION DAY on Saturday so you can double dip and hit both events. Couple of exits apart but definitely a added bonus for being in the neighborhood.

    I just went to look at their website. looks like a nice shop.. I am just worried about that lady holding that Dragunov in the pictures at the top of the screen... She is going to be hurting if she touches that thing off...[FONT=Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif] [/FONT]

    It finally clicked for my wife a month ago shooting outdoors for the first time and she went from tentative to shoot a large frame .380 to "hey I like this .40, don't sell it" and now I'm getting little nudges "hey did you find one of those _____ yet? What about a ____?".

    Ahh lol, don't judge them by their stock photos haha.. That iwb cz in a nylon holster... They are a well equipped class 3 shop and they sell Wiley Coyote Acme branded ar lowers. I haven't bought much from them but I do stop in everytime I go through Seymour. They have the best selection of ammo, police trade ins, and electro optics in the state. Not many shops have 260rem ammo, a wide selection of aimpoints, a case full of suppressors, and a wall full of sbr's. I wonder who will fill their usual space at the Columbus show?

    Didn’t make it today. Hoping to get there tomorrow. For the ones that went today, was the stuff pretty picked over, or is there a good selection left?

    Generally picked over, and no one I talked to was willing to deal. Some nice old rimfires and shotguns tho, still priced above gun broker.
