Columbia City G-n-K show this weekend

[Cygnus]

Has anyone been to a Columbia City show before? Never heard of one there before.

I'm thinking of checking it out this weekend.
Is it worth going to?

 

[sp3worker]

I'd like to know as well, not too far of a drive for me.

I might go

 

[Cygnus]

Anyone else going?

Anyone know if this is the first one there?

 

[headhunter]

These are held fairly regularly a couple times a year. I'll be there.

 

[I Like Firearms]

I am going to head up

 

[lawrra]

I do believe I will be heading up. When are you fellers getting there?

 

[No Time to Shoot]

If it's the one at the 4H grounds it's pretty small. But it's still a gun show. Watch out for some serious price gouging though! If I get bored I might stop by.

This couple has been running a lot of small guns shows for a number of years now. Mostly they are small and poorly advertised shows. You can pick up a deal once in a while but mostly over priced regular people that stay with them. Like most gun shows, you take your chance and see what you can find.

You best bet is the guys walking around with the better deals.

I sit up at their shows at one time, but never had enough people to make any kind of profit, so I stopped using them.

21st Century is going to be there. That's enough reason for me to go. Some of their deals for the show are posted here: https://www.indianagunowners.com/forums/21st_century_firearms/54809-this_weekend_we_re_in_columbia_city.html

 

[VanillaThunder]

Thanks! I mised that. There are some pretty goods deals they'll be having.
The S&W's are tempting esp. with that rebate!

 

[INyooper]

A friend and I are planning on heading over there sometime Saturday morning.

 

[farmboy365]

just got home smaller show but no crowd vary poor atendance.sold a gun and got large pistol primers.

 

[VanillaThunder]

lots of SKS's in the $400 range. even saw a "You go" SKS for $485. LOTS of Jimenez SNS's...all in all, mostly still panic prices. some fairly good prices on Glocks, some outrageous prices on well worn 2nd gen's. i remember when "gun show pricing" was a discount.

of course, Jahred had the best deals in the room...

 

[Cygnus]

Yeah.....I agree with the reports so far. Small show MOSTLY panic prices.
Used guns at new prices. 21st had their deals going of course. Picked up some ammo on the cheap from them.
A lot of overpriced items still. April 2009 prices about sums it up.

Gun shows are great for us as we get to see many dealers in one spot, but the dealer has to pay for table space and price his goods accordingly.

9mm WWB at $40 per 100ct? Used guns at new prices?

Eff those dealers!



The larger real store folks had some fair prices on their new guns. The private guys are choking on their greed from a few months back. Warms my heart......
