    I'm going to go to the one in New Albany, just because there is nothing else to do on Sat, but if it's anything like the last one I went to in Salem, I'm sure I'll be disappointed.

    With 3 shows so close in proximity, I fear 3 skimpy shows will play out this weekend. Plus add in the crappy weather now. I guess we'll see how it all plays out.

    Not as bad as the Corydon show. Show does have a variety of C&R's. There was a Sig P6 for $225. Seller said it needs a slide but when I looked at it the frame rail was bent up. Did see an Argy Colt for $600 but something looked off on it. Maybe the import mark on it. Funniest gouge of the day was the Yugo M59/66 in a Tapco Stock marked AK-47 for $750.

    Are you sure the seller wasn't a journalist plant? :):

    Apparently you have not been to many of our local small shows.

    $600 gen 2 glocks that look like they were chained to a truck and drug down a gravel road, $1200 DPMS AR15's in a climate where you can get $500 ones, rows are rows of worn out Mosins and 22lr that was horded from a Walmart for 25% more than you can get it online right now with shipping.

    I'm still going to this show, because I told some friends I would go with them, if for nothing but to chuckle and reaffirm that I can get better stuff, cheaper both here and online.

    Oh, I'm not surprised by the prices, but at least they normally get the type/make/model of the guns right.

    I went to the Corydon one and New Albany yesterday. Corydon was horrible, they said 30 vendors canceled. There were no bargains, I didn't see any cash changing hands. $32 for a box of Arms Corp 10mm ammo!.
    The New Albany show was a little better. I didn't pay much attention to plastic guns, but I remember a gen2 G20 for about $400. There were several smith wheel guns at decent prices. What you have to keep in mind at these shows its that of a smith 19 is marked $585 then you can get it for $525 to $550, maybe $500 of you are good .
    I bought a Ruger 10/22 tactical w/ heavy barrel, bipod, and BSA sweet 22 scope. It was marked $450 I got it for $380

    Got back a little bit ago from the New Albany show.

    It sucked and sucked hard.

    Some of these clowns had prices that were from the Clinton era. Table after table of crap.

    A few decent looking Smith wheel guns, but that's it.
