[QUOTE="ronny, post: 2005853, member: 8853"] I drove up from Ardmore and can testify that it was worth it. Once the rep grows and those empty tables in the center are filled, this will be a very good show. As it was, there was a very good selection of guns and knives. There was a lot of interesting stuff to look at, but to be honest with you, there were some outlandish prices. I like C&R type stuff and what I saw was high. There were more SKS's than I've seen lately, but with one exception, those I saw were $400 and up to $550 - wow. SVT $900. 91/30's for way too much. An M44 for $350. Etc. I saw a G33/40 for $1,250. That may be what they're worth these days. I thought ammo was high as well. Federal .223 for .50/round. Walmart is .35/round. I haven't been to a show since the election. Maybe this is the new norm. Speaking of knives, the guy from Hennepin, John Combes, had some really cool knives. I may go see him one of these days. But, to top it all off, my friend coolhandluke gifted me with a phopt he had taken and framed. He knows my affinity for C&R weapons. The actual picture looks better than my dinky camera shows it. Thanks, again, Luke. That was cool of you. [ATTACH=CONFIG]24716[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
