Close and possibly closer...
Ian Sean,
Yeah, we're close in location and possibly getting closer in the near future. We're looking at locations for new abode and there's quite a number opening up in your general location in Berks county.
Lots of shows in PA, quite anumber of small to medium sized shows. Too bad the shows at the Fort Washington Expo center are now thing of the past. Very personal and somewhat political disagreements(from what I've been told, but we know how 2nd/3rd hand info is) killed that one. Sigh....
Anyone know when the next show at Valley forge is?

PA Farm show Complex show...
... is this weekend, May 3rd & 4th.
Show opens at 9:00 AM both days, closing at 5:00 PM Satruday(May 3rd) and 4:00 PM on Sunday(May 4th).
Taking a friend that recently picked up a nickeled Beretta 85FS. I tried to steer him to at lest a 9mm for minimum caliber, but his hand/finger/grip size limited his choices. He liked the 85FS better than a Kahr K9 and he wanted a pistol that had a safety. I won't talk his choice down, I'll just help to pick out the best defensive .380 ACP ammo that groups well in the 85FS.
See you all at the show....

Politics is wonderfull...
If you want a really good story to listen to, ask one of the older Farm Show complex staff about how the new addition and the parking arrangement came to be.
It's a VERY interesting education in the manners and workings of how the system doesn't work.
See you at the show.....

They ditched the bus routine. Your $5 gets you into the North Parking Lot -- just like the old days, when parking cost $0. Show admission is $7.
Didn't get much at the show, just some beef jerky and a AR15 A2 sight tool.
