Mk-211's link has a very good description of it. California was alot different back then. Great hunting and fishing. Wasn't anti gun. Started changing fast in the 90s. I left in 2000.

I'm not saying bargains were common. But as recently as 4 or 5 years ago I regularly saw items of interest that were going for a good price, including ammo. You had to look for it but the bargains were there. But for the most part prices were similar to what was at the LGS. But these days they seem to be significantly more on most stuff. But I definitely agree about the entertainment aspect and the little odds and ends to be found.
I have never been to a gun show. There are several around here every year, but I have never had the desire to go.
These days you're not missing a hell of a lot.
Stay safe.
Here in G'ville SC coffee is $3.00 a cup and most are not friendly.When I lived in Fayt-nam as a child, we had a huge 7 days a week indoor flea market. And 20% of the booths were military surplus, A2 uppers, triangle stock, all kindda stuff you could only imagine, and everything was negotiable.
Gun Show now, I just get that really good cup of $.50 coffee and just chat with friendly people
