Used to be my favorite near Fort Wayne. Haven’t been in some time. Was great for private sales.

Be prepared for alot of Amish!!!! It is in their backyard, and they do buy alot of rifles! Horse krap will be around, but unlike Fort Wayne, it was always free parking.

Stopped in around noon and spent 3hrs. It wasn't packed so was able to put the boy in the stroller and walk around aftera quick walk through and really look at things after going back in. Ended up buying a pre b c75 mag for $35, Marlin 41 Sears branded 22 single shot for $175, and according to the store a factory stag arms lower minus the buttsock for $266, and $60 of Zicks meats.


Ammo and what reloading stuff that was there was high priced as usual, and several tables thought their stuff was gold when a few tables away the same firearm could be bought for a decent price. Otherwise was worth the $6 entry fee.

Dude. I was there during that time. I wished I would have known to watch for you. I bought a Win 22 pump from a guy. He said that was the last of the 8 rifles he brought to the show.

Congrats on the new daughter> daughters are kind of nice, until they get to that preteen age, but then they are nice again when they get older.

Didn’t make it today even after asking about it and hearing it’s a decent show. Yah, I have five of those pesky offspring some of you are referring to lol! One of my teenagers is laid up after a shoulder surgery, so I might not be making the drive to Amish country this time around. Will see tomorrow.
