It was good. Picked up several Savage 99 parts and some .303 ammo.

It was a great show aside from the cops patroling the aisles. Lots of visable animosity/hatred for Cuomo. I picked up a couple nice trinkets. #16 catalog (1905) and a near mint Lyman Alaskan with post and crosshair in a near mint Stith mount. Met with many friends. Best thing we ever did was join the NY State Arms Collectors Association. Gets you into their shows without waiting in the long lines and gets you in an hour before the doors open to the public. Your membership fee covers the price of admittance. ![[Linked Image]](http://i131.photobucket.com/albums/p313/longbeardking/GEDC1894_zps153d15cf.jpg)

We got there about 10:15-10:30 on Sunday and walked right in. There wasn't a single person in line, just as fast as they were getting to the cashier they were walking through the doors.
I actually thought it was a little nicer without having to skip over tables of nothing but ARs (just wish it was because of different reasons).

Steve,
Looks like you had a good time at the show. The round trip drive was a little long for me so I passed. Glad you got some good stuff.

Thanks. It was nice to see a great number of "red" New Yorkers. They are quite the bunch of "stand strong". New York, like Massachusetts would be a GREAT place without NYC, Albany, and Boston................

Ya know, you've got to wonder these days what ever happened to the States that started the Revolution. "How the mighty have fallen."

That's fairly easy for me in my narrow mind to fathom. Life has become too easy, education has become to liberal, Americans have lost their spine, And the gates have been opened basically for the wrong people. The country has lost it's unique culture. BUT OTOH, "some" of us do NOT give up that easily.
