Gun show.....WOW!
Went to a gun show here in Tucson yesterday. I can`t believe the amount of people there & the amount of business the vendors were doing. The hottest items were assault weapons, concealable semi-auto handguns and ammunition. I saw people leaving with 4,5 even 6 cases of ammo at a time. Mostly .223, 7.65x39, 9mm and .45 ACP. Every vendor that was selling bulk ammo had 10-15 people waiting in line to buy.
We got there ~2 hrs after they opened. There was a line of aprox 75 people waiting to get in. We stayed about 2 hrs but it was just too crowded. We left at 12:30 Pm & there were 150-200 people waiting to get in. I`ve been going to gun shows for about 20 years but have never seen anything like this.

Yup......President Elect Obama is the BEST thing that ever happened to firearm and ammunition manufacturers world-wide, and retailers in the US.......at least until he gets into office and has some authority.

Probably not....  Check 'Net Gun Boards. I was looking for one too. I bought mine about a year ago from a guy 1/2 hr away for $850. Found it on an internet gun board's classified section.

Hey if you guys go to these shows, pass out a flyer or something about us. I have been trying to get some more site traffic but it's difficult without a lot of sites linking to us. It was like this with DTR. Took a year or two to gain a steady stream of new users. So anyways, wish I was in that business!!
