Well I've been to the Big Top Promotions gun show but that doesn't really count since thats basically a traveling gun shop lol. I grew up going to them with my grandfather in the mid 80's & 90's and aquired some of my best memories at them. Last time I went to a show was prob 15-20 years ago and even then the prices had gotten CRAZY! I may go just depends on how I feel. I want to go just to get some use outta my WAC membership being every Puyallup show has been cancelled so far this year up till now. Which is pretty messed up to pay all that money for basically just the monthly newsetter.

My wife and I plan on going to take a look around. I always enjoy seeing firearms I might otherwise never see. Or others that I’ve never heard of. Plus they usually have the scone place open :)

Plus they usually have the scone place open :) That's one of the big reason I want to go. Oh wow $15 dollars is pretty pricey I guess thats one good thing about the WAC membership you get in for free. Well hope you and the wife have a great weekend either way.

I was somewhat impressed.
Wade was there disposing of his annual ammunition dump (normally see him in Nov, so this was a surprise...). If you needed ammo, he had 3 tons of it.
There were quite a few tables covered in MilSurp/C&R stuff that you just don't normally find very often. Some really good prices on a number of them too.
Primers on just about every table. Range was $75-$140/K. Good choices for reloading stuff too - several tables had a lot of goodies (bullets and even some powder) to sort through.
Tons of new AR stuff, magazines and handguns as well.

After reports of full tables I decided to not be a cheap skate and head up.

Went this morning, crowd wasn't too bad. Lots of ammo, some at market and some outrageous.
Stopped by your tables XR650, but you weren't' there. Must have been out on the prowl for some deals.
