Nothing in Westside or Vail?
No longer John.
I marvel at the work it took to put the dancefloor down. The might have had power saws, but I'll think there was a lot of hand work![Linked Image from i.imgur.com]

The old fellow who built my folks' new house (1963) used floorboards salvaged from our old church. I was fascinated watching him lay it.
I don't type fast enough, or well enough, I have story about the first time I was in the Arcadia American Legion Hall.

The Poophole Loophole?
i miss going to gunshows. ain't been to one in probably 2 years. they moved the best one out of the county after some dipschit shot a hole in the floor. used to be an every month event to go and hit the shows and then the diner for lunch. i bought some nice stuff at those shows. 20+ years ago you could get some bargains. last few years, not so much.
I saw shotgun primers, no others.

Yep! It used to have many mounted animals on the walls.

You forgot all of the "If you don't sign up with us, you're not a real American" tables.
Not many masked men.

Probably due to the scarcity of silver bullets.

There is a small gun show at the local "convention center" this weekend.
Primers were 40 cents a piece,Remington thunderbolts were marked $100 for a box of 525, 223 was a buck each. Not much to my surprise there were booger eating morons buying it

The think I’d have bought those Colts.
Find me a pre-81 BLR magazine for 49$.
Anything higher is price gouging.

I was thinking the same thing.
The old joke, I don't fight anymore. The last fight I was in, I killed a guy. He got his hand caught in my hip pocket, and i drug him to death! laugh

There was a brick of WLR in your second photo...
$175..

Don't know how everyone missed that.
I was not relay looking to buy, so, I slipped up there.

I hope the pictures showed a bit of the "action'

I think that the majority of us attend gun shows not looking to buy; just like most people with tables go not looking to sell.
