I just heard about it today from a guy at work. It's at the state fair grounds. Anyone know if it's any good?

The fairgrounds shows are usually pretty good, at least as far as selection. I wish I could make it.

It's a great show. Lots of vendors, good parking.

Is this a MWCA show? If so you might as well skip it unless you are into historical stuff. Tons of old military stuff at those shows. Not much in the way of guns.

Huh?!

Yep! the MWCA show in the coliseum. Usually the second most attended show by dealers and customers next to the spring show in the same place. See you there bright and early Saturday at 8am if you are a non member.

Well, after hearing what you guys have to say... I'll definitely be heading down there... Let's see if my girlfriend will be able to put up with another gun shopping experience haha. Aside from wanting an AR-15 (a little more money than I want to spend right now) think I'd be able to find a tactical AK?

Also, how do prices at a gun show like this compare to a retail setting? Im guessing there's plenty of negotiating?

I wish I could make it, but I've already got plans to set my hair on fire that day.
