    Always one of the best gatherings in the area in my opinion. Arrived at 10 am & stayed till 1:30; didn't seem as much shoulder-to-shoulder as the last couple of years.

    Pretty good prices on most of the tables. Picked up a P3AT NIB + 200 rds of WWB for my wife... $300 out the door.

    I got a repro Garand ammo belt and a repro carbine ammo pouch and a bargain GI Mag. :rockwoot:I had fun looking, too.

    There were fewer tables in the south room, but it was still plenty crowded.

    Did anyone else think the prices were up? I did see a nice Taurus .22 revolver in stainless but the owner didn't want to budge on the $375 price.
    Oh well, always a good show.

    I bought five old Gun Digest books some T/C 45 cal Maxi Balls, cleaning patches and a T/C Seneca in 36cal, a dual cavity round ball / conical 36cal mold, etc... I sold all of my deer antlers too! My buddy got a Navy Arms 1851 Colt Navy revolver in 44cal + extras. This was one of my best trips to my favorite show.

    Was the Seneca on a table or from an individual? I was looking for a bp squirrel gun.

    As I was walking back in the front door a gentleman had a Savage bolt-action rifle in one hand and the Seneca in the other. I dropped the antlers and eagerly requested permission to handle the Seneca. He said he bought it from someone at the show, he claimed it to be unfired. After cleaning the dust off, I found every reason to believe him. He was heading out of the show to put it on the internet. I think it was the best purchase I ever made at a show.
