Be there the 29th, my birthday. I'll be there with my brother and the two oldest nephews, "Uncle Kirk, buy me shoot gun!"

Firearms as gifts to El Tejon are encouraged.

I'm always there, selling knives, swords, EBR accessories and Evil Pink Rifle accessories for my little girl and spending all my profit on more guns.

Stop by and say hi. I'll be signing my new books.

Wish I could Go!

Fell in the Bath tub and broke my *&%$# leg.

Madmike: Loved Freehold and Hero, both Great books. I look forward to reading the rest of your books in the near future.

I had no idea we had a celebrity here! I've been reading SF for longer than I want to admit. Discovered John Ringo a couple of years ago and your books through him.

Maybe i'll be mobile for the next show and come by for a signed copy.

Hi Boss,

What do you sell and where are you setting up?

Am I the only one...

Who thinks that the Indy 1500 isn't near as great as it was only a couple of years ago? I went to the last one and could not find what I considered to be a good deal... Am I off base here?

 

[Boss Spearman]

I'm just a shopper unfortunately. I always attend however.

 

[1 old 0311]

Hi Clint,

You are right, it is about 1/2 the size it was years ago. Still the biggest show around here though.

I agree the "1500" may not be the way it was a couple of years back this next "1500" is in the Blue Ribbon Champion Buildings so it will be a larger show than usual. And if the deals seem fewer and farther in between it's still one of the best places to look for a bargain with alot of the dealers and vendors in one location.
Just my

Depending on my work I'll be there Sat. or Sun.

Hi Clintpup,

YOU make the deals. Everybody buys at the same price. If you find 2 sellers that have what you want tell them you are serious and go back and forth between then. I ALWAYS get a better price this way

I made it to the show. I got an FEG Hi Power and an H&K USP 9 compact. I saw Mike's booth but did not get a chance to say hi.
