prairie goat: Don't want to go to a gunshow or a gunshop - well then just sit on your ass in your big chair and complain - that is up to you.
I greatly enjoy doing gunshows, gunshops and travelling to view estate sales with guns included!
I have been doing so for well over half a century now - with NO signs of let-up.
These are very enjoyable and rewarding (profitable also!) hobbies to me (collecting, Hunting & shooting) and the views to the contrary by myopic cranky folks won't dissuade ME from doing so - in any way shape or form.
I did a gunshow east of me this past weekend and I'll be doing another gunshow, east of me this coming weekend.
Enjoy your big chair.
Sad.
