I normally attend the Tipton shows, BUT I get the mailer advertising the shows often. My "cards" do not show ANY shows in December. I do have a mailer showing the Lafayette show the same weekend as you are indicating the Tipton show will run??? Guess I will attend the Lafayette show this weekend!

Come to Tipton, check the prices then buy a flashlite got to the other shows hunt for their prices--then come back to Tipton, have some great food and drink---then go spend spend-spend

ATTN. Larry C --looking at MR. Pat Comers list of dates--(This show is run by Pat Comer----he has 4 shows a year,--not one every week) (card postmarked 11-25)last show date listed on the card is for December 3rd, and 4th

This show is well maintained---well lighted----good food-----3 old grouches, but most of the dealer are good and easy to talk to

P.S It seems that all the shows are 2/3 days---get some extra cash and attend them all--be sure and hit Tipton first----- you wont find better prices--and you just might come back after seeing the other places------be sure and take your flashlight to one or two of them-------just my opinion
I will be in the N
orth room

YOU ARE RIGHT, I was in error. I have attended every show at Tipton this year, do really like the show. I misread the cards, thought the lower dates were for 2017 (the cards I receive from the "other" vendor that holds the Lafayette, Kokomo and other shows lists the dates differently ~ MY Apologies. Sure hate to miss a show, but Lafayette is quite a bit closer to my house, wish they would change the dates on one of the shows as this seems to happen at least once a year.

Went today and had a good time. One dealer had about four tables of retro AR parts. (edgewater buffers, triangle handguards, A1 stocks and a fairly nice SP1 carbine with the metal stock. Don't know if it's $2000 worth or not.) A member of INGO, who said he reads more than posts, made me a fair trade for an 03-A3 Smith Corona. Didn't catch his name, but thanks.

I was there with Mrs Wabbit (LEES on INGO) and our 3 children. We picked up a Heritage Rough Rider .22LR for the boy to learn about cowboy guns next year. Several of the vendors gave the kids candies. The wife was drooling over a Browning 20ga over-under and a Sig 1911 with Crimson Trace grips. I was looking at Schoffields and Colt SAA clones but too rich for me. I guess the SKS train burned up or something. There is no reason a SKS is worth $500+ unless it came from Putin's personal collection.

And I renewed my Elwood membership. I love this show.

I'm the guy that was talking to the dealer that you bought it from! He and I both grew up in Frankton, and he bought my father's business when my dad retired. I was telling him the long sad story about why I got out of the teaching profession.

I found some factory new 7.7 Jap and .303 Brit ammo at the show.

I just sent in my app the other day.... waiting to hear back. Been procrastinating, glad I got it in! I visited with the Joseph, the Pres, a couple of months back and took a tour.
I moved here last year, and don't know anyone around. Hoping by joining I can get some shooting in AND meet some folks.

Shut off forever? Serious?

 

[bocefus78]

Shut off forever? Serious?

Yes. Or until some one doesnt renew, then they will sell 1.
Mr prez, Joe, told me this last month.

Wowza.

Looks like I will have to get signed up asap. I was a member for several years but let it lapse. It is a steal at $65!
