...one tacticool dealer with a mowhawk, one true hillbilly dealer but he was down to earth and fun to talk to, only one junk guy and lots of guns. Didn't buy a thing other than admission but got to visit with some old friends I haven't seen in years. Was a good day!

Glad you enjoyed it. I've gotten to where I don't even bother going to most of the one's around here. I can only take just so much "tactical" stuff and "homemade beef jerky". The last one I went to, which was advertised as 150 tables, MAY have had 300 guns in the whole place, most of which were brand new.

While it's true that all liberals are crazy people, not all crazy people are liberals.

Nowadays, I really enjoy looking at the old stuff, like old Winchester's and Colts, and also really nice S&W revolvers. And just about ang good custom knife maker. Also enjoy talking to the few old timers that are left. I don't even stop or glance at the "Tacticool" tables which are usually manned by some tin foil type or survivor nut case.

And any day at a gun show beats a day at work all to hell, IMO. Glad you had some fun, Keith.

Fully worthless in these parts too..

I've got better things to do with $5-10 and two hours time than to waste either...

I went the other way to Pine City. Got a pound of gunpowder, some socks, cheese curds, and joined GOCRA. There are worse ways to spend a Sunday afternoon.

The tech school has one. It's usually a week or 2 after Sioux Falls, which is the weekend closest to valentine's day.
