I must have some kind of memory loss problem or an masochistic tendencies
because I still go to the monthly gun show.
It's not funny anymore maybe it would be if it was my worst enemy instead of me.
Row 1
Beat up ruger mkII looks like it has been dragged behind a pickup through a granite quarry. $250 Remington police shotguns used really really used
all finish gone off action and stock $280 each. Guy selling old gun magazines
from 2003 woot! they sucked 2 years ago and they don't age like wine either.
Row 2 Dremel bits, military clothing marked up about 3x from the surplus store
which is marked up 3x from cheaperthandirt.com and some guy with a bunch of old colt SAA (if they are real).
I ask the guy how much for the 44.40?
"Moren you got boy"
I tell him "you don't know how much I got old man".
Row 3 about 1500 non descript bolt action rifles lined up with no one tending the tables. If anyone wants one "TFB" buddy.
Row 4 Some jerk face selling badly reblued junk guns for about 200% more than I can buy them new. When I offer a reasonable price for one the one passable examples they roll their eyes and move on to the next customer without countering my offer.
Row 5 some 1911 accessories that I might want to try out for fun.
when I ask if they have a certain item the guy looks at me and says with a surly sarcastic tone "gee I don't know there only seems to be 20 on the table"
I reply "and it looks like I won't be buying any of them"
Then there is crooked ammo man.
Reproduction military .45acp boxes filled with Amerc ammo on sale for $15 a box Hi. do you have any 7.62x25. Oh yeah here you go only $12 dollars a box
"but sir all these are green and blue with cracked necks"
"Thats not my problem I'm just watching the table for someone"
Row 6 military surplus man. about 759 cosmoline soaked bayonets
Got one for a SMLE MKIII I ask? Yeah its $175 Which one is it? staring at the
gooey crate full of battered pig stickers. I don't know you'll have to dig for it.
he says.
Nazi man with nazi clothes books, coins and autographed pics of himmler.
Guy looks like Michael Moore with a weight problem and worse facial hair.
Cleaning supplies priced about 50% higher than the sporting goods store.
Bore snakes for 34.95 What a bargain!!!!
Row 7 Got to go to the bathroom. All stalls are filled with vey big very stinky people. Green methane gas clouds my vision I resist the urge to turn puke and run but don't quite succeed.
Candles rocks, log art, some guy selling his autographed books about being a Texas ranger.I would stop and chat with the Ranger but the scented candles already gave me a migraine. If they weren't 15 bucks each I would take one into the bathroom and blow that place sky high.
Snack bar, Next to the bathroom dear god no. I'm going to go buy a $9 bottle of hoppes to get the smell out of my clothes.
Decent ammo table finally but the SOB won't get off his cell phone so I can buy from him. Is he talking business? Nooooo. He is talking about how stupid his customers are and how much he hates dealing with the morons at the gun show... Know what? I agree Buh Bye This moron won't be buying the 3 cases of .308.
Last table some guy trying to peddle beat up Garands for $1200 each cause they are rare tanker models ( I can see the crappy welds and it looks like they modified the stock with a rusty spoon)
I've got a grand burning a hole in my pocket so I buy some candy almonds from the girl leaning over with her blouse open. Come to think of it at this point I'm not sure if it was a girl with cleavage or a guy bending over who needed a belt.
By this time the exit is looking real good and I SWEAR I'm never ever going to gome back to this cess hole of a home for displaced stinky nazi's and con men.
Until I forget again.
