Yuma gunshow after-action report
Went to the Yuma AZ gunshow yesterday morning. Pretty sad, lots of empty tables. Not a great deal of interesting stuff, no really nice .22's at all, very few lever guns to speak of. One Marlin 39A in decent condition for 700 bucks. Tables and tables of black rifle parts and old military junk, along with magazines. Plenty of handguns of all sorts. Racks and racks of EBR's. .22 ammo is coming down, AutoMatch was 28-30 a box as opposed to 50- 60 last spring, didn't see anyone lined up to buy any. No beef jerky to be had. Spent 50 cents for a cup of coffee and called it a morning.

Yup, still a snowbird. Sometime down here they call us "Q-tips". You know, white hair on top, white sneakers on the bottom. White on both ends, thusly, ""Q-tips".JReed wrote:Well that doesnt sound any fun at all. Are you still snow birding back and forth?
Been called far worse.
Re: Yuma gunshow after-action report
Haha. We are looking to make the move there next summer after I retire. We will have to have a LG get together next winter when you all are down.

I've darn near sworn off on gun shows. Anything of interest is over-priced, including general supplies if they even have them...
Re: Yuma gunshow after-action report
Went to a good show last Sunday. Lots of levers pre 64 levers for 5-600, lots of Colts, tons of superposed and pythons and other snake guns, .22 ammo, I usually take some money, the boy and I went from boredom. Should have went to town and got money for a mint superposed in 20. 
bought a few camo shirts. Show was in Fredericksburg, best prices I've seen in a long time. Lots of ivory knives, guys trying to clear em out before the ban.

Re: Yuma gunshow after-action report
Our local gun show is usually filled with the same stuff every time. All overpriced and mostly junk.
