I'll be there sometime in the morning. If the damn parking and crowds are as bad as the last show in Dec. I may be highly aggravated

Well, the crowd and parking was fucking horrible. Took 30 min just to get through the line to get in the door, not to mention the 20min to find a parking spot which I ended up just using 4wd and parking diagonal on the muddy hill below the armory
I hear the October show will be in a new armory they are building. News to me, I'm local to the area, and it's the first I've heard of it, but if it has more parking, and bigger it has to better than this old shit hole. Anyone know where the new armory is being built?? All I have heard is East Fairmont....
Lots of shit as always, but didn't see a damn thing I wanted to be honest. Overpriced ammo cans were the flavor of the day. I ended up buying a old artillery shell crate that had been made to stand on end and use as a small locker for $20, and a box of .38 special for my hiking gun..
Not sure what I may use the crate for, could put my Yugo under-folder AK in there, M1 Carbine maybe, AR? Hell who knows. I may just add a few shelves for ammo, and use it for that.

No, I had a Silver Ranger with Russian arsenal decals and a BFL on the back window. I was parked on over below the armory near that red shipping crate. I was parked that way with about 2 other trucks, which were gone when I left, and there were some serious ruts where someone got hung trying to park where I did

Simms, good to meet you there at the show.
All you guys that go to the show and DON'T stop and say hi at the Tannermans booth, sorry about your luck! You don't know what you may have missed out on.
Decent show, I got some primers I was a little low on, and a near new Gen 4 G19 from Tannermans, although I got a stupid delay and won't be able to get it till next weekend probably.
