Tipton Gun Show

[FFEMT]

I'm going to try and make it. Got my tax check...which calls for thinking about buying a new toy!

1. I have done both shows over the last few years. Tipton is not even close to being as big as Kokomo.

I would not want you to estimate square feet in my house to lay carpet.

My knives will be at the Kokomo show and never again at the Tipton show. I am not fond of either of the promoters for different reasons but there is more money for us to be made at the Kokomo show.

A bit disappointing this time around. I went to both Tipton and Kokomo shows today and didn't see a lot of what I was looking for.

I took two guns with me today, and neither sold. That is the first time I failed to sell what I took to a show.

I didn't see much of anything being sold at either show.

Spasmo and I went by the Tipton show today. Saw lots of used handguns being sold at prices higher than new. I saw a brand new XDm that was covered in mud and dirt being sold by a dealer (not a private seller). I saw several Mosin Nagant M91/30's going for >$200, which is almost three times what they were actually worth.

Went to the Tipton Show today and got a GREAT deal for ZX guns from Goshen. Super guys to buy from... 10/22 TD $298.53 out the door.. They were in the back room had 10+ tables and the guns were stacked.. XD's $469 new in the box..

I went to Tipton and Kokomo. Picked up a new XDM 45 compact decent price from ZX guns. I will go again, kinda nice not walking all over people at the 1500 even though the selection was slim.

Went to both shows today, the Tipton show was by far the better show and it just gains momentum as CIG continues to alienate vendors. That TD 10/22 for $289 was/is a rockin deal as was the m1a for $1369 OTD with ZX Guns in the back room Tipton.

ZX guns will make that show. I am glad they were there. They are great people to do business with for sure. Tipton is lucky to have them there.

I will not be able to make the Tipton show this time....poo!

I saw that pistol Sat when I took my son. I stifled my laughter when I saw it, though my 12 year old son wasnt so polite. He very loudly asked me if that was the same type of gun another vendor was selling NEW for $50 less on the other side of the room. I am just glad that I wasnt interested in trying to buy anything off his table that day, lol!

 

[Scutter01]

I want to know why a pistol being sold as brand new was covered in mud. Also, it never occurred to him to attempt to clean it off before trying to sell it?

 

[jgarst]

I seen that and kinda laughed. I wonder what goes threw people's heads sometimes. I thought the prices were really high at A lot of tables and was unable to find anything I was looking for...well I did but when a gun is a hundred dollars over priced I'm not buying it convenient or not. After I left the tipton show I decided not to even venture up to the kokomo one.
