Shortly. Wife, son, and foster boy are gone for the day. Maybe I'll find a .50 there.....
And seriously.....if you feel like chiming in on how you don't like Washington arms collectors or you don't like the show........ Just keep it to yourself.

The paranoid WAC hate is strong in some.
Enjoy the show, have to do some labor. On a Sunday. Ugg.

I went yesterday . Mostly just looking for small parts . Got a LMT GEN 1 SOPMOD stock and a AR port door Assy. For a fair price. And a few things I didn't really need for cheap. Lots of empty tables . But that's somewhat normal for this time of year . I enjoyed the show.

Increasingly I think there will be baby boomers getting out of the market with wares from their decades of collecting. I just know of a few in recent months who have gotten out because of either health (sell for medical expenses), moving (new state won't allow), or death (children don't want them). I know of one guy with a collection of just Colts which is extensive in itself, not including all of his other stuff. It's all demographics. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fREtHucN0CIAnd the baby boomers I think typically unload at gun shows, despite me trying to educate them in selling online.

There's a Barrett M82 at the show as of yesterday. $7995 with 2 mags and case. I pawed at it but couldn't muster the nuts to tell my wife I spent $8k on a gun. If he'd have been willing to take $6k I'd have purchased it on the spot.

M82 is out of my reach at the moment. Didn't see it here anyway.

I haven't been to the Puyallup show for a while and today my daughter and I wandered through. It was real quiet. Found some mags that I was looking for at a good price. Found a little bit of 41mag ammo..... a few other good deals, but like I said it was quiet but really personable in the fact that everyone had time to talk, and talking guns is one of my favorite things.......

I did come home with a sig 1911-22 And a dao .40 Beretta. Not sure what I think about that. The old man got a sw 64-8 stainless. Pretty sure he'll get bored of that and sell it though.
