[ARCHIVED THREAD] - Gun Show in Allen This Weekend, Anyone Going?

Posted: 12/7/2018 12:36:54 PM EDT

Thinking of letting my IDF Version Tavor go, it's a pretty rare version, might not get the offers I want, but it will be a conversation starter. Anyone else going and what are you bringing or looking for?

I'm going. It'll be my first gunshow in, I don't know, 5+ years?

Sadly, I see Jeff passed recently and Bachman's out of business. Those were always the two tables I made a beeline for, first.

Who are/is the large inventory discount handgun dealer(s) now?

Not sure. SAW is going out of business... Well they officially have from what I understand and are left selling the little bit of 'personal' inventory they bought. That was as of the last show in Lewisville a couple weeks ago.

I might swing by. Currently in the market for 6.5CM build parts and reloading powder.

I might go. I have not been to a gun show since I moved to Texas. Might be good on a rainy day.

Don't expect much. Small and generally disappointing at least for me personally. YMMV.

Well, if you're interested in ARs and AR accessories (paraphrasing Hank Hill), it was a well stocked venue. Some high tone bling from a private estate sale (musta been from El Guapo's estate).

I snagged a Walther PPQ Q5 for a decent price. Got my Sebbie sharpened. And got mi Esposa some turquoise jewelry. I'm happy.

Where the AR parts a bunch of no-name items or were they quality? it seems the last few shows I've been to has a table or two full of complete uppers and miscellaneous parts but they are all unmarked and look a little dramatic for me. Stuff that screams I'm a noob and bought a muzzle brake with spikes on it

There were at least 10 (15?) tables with complete uppers. Just about every manufacturer represented. Surprisingly, there were at least 3 vendors with Noveske.
