Gun show at Marion County Fairgrounds

[SnoopLoggyDog]

Wonder what the prices will be like at the Marion County Fairgrounds gun show? Curious if the buying frenzy has reached full panic mode yet?

I’m sure it will be a madhouse. I heard the lines were out the door at Greenfield last week.

I plan on going to the Kokomo show in a few weeks. Wish the Tipton show had not been cancelled due to COVID.

At least it's only 5 bucks to get in I believe.

FWIW. Just want to put a "plug" in for a local vendor( from Logansport) that is set up at this show today and the weekend. His business is Red Barn Firearms. He is a fairly new little shop in Anoka on US35 between Logansport and Walton.He is not new to the dealer business been doing it for 4-5 years at gun-shows and out of his house. He and his wife just started this gun shop in the red barn next to their house.. His name is Jason Kite and his wife is Heather Kite. Nice folks. Just passing this along. I gain nothing for identifying him.

Against my better judgment I went. They were charging $5 to park. Cheapest 9MM I saw was $45 a box(most were at $50 or $60), cheapest brass cased 5.56 was $20 a box. I left without buying anything.

How were the gun prices?

Any jerky or chocolate by the pound?

I drove in and parked. Nobody charged me anything.

I'd be surprised if we are able to have the Kokomo show in February. The new mayor and the health department have shut down the last 2.

The parking issue is a BIG source of contention. We may never return to that fairgrounds. The promotor specifically paid more for the building (a LOT more) so they would not charge for parking. The fairgrounds then decided they were losing too much money and started charging in the middle of the day. The promoter is furious with them (and so am I, along with many others).

So, it costs $5 to park and $5 to get in?

We showed about around 11 didn't pay for parking. 5bucks to get in. Pretty packed. Ar prices were retarded. Ammo prices were super high.

There was a Remington 1100 for 400. Had I had the cash on me I would have bought it. But sadly didn't take much cash.
