Went to the Pro Gun show at Wilmington today. It was the most crowded show that I have ever been to at that location, probably because there were fewer tables than previous shows.

Many guys walking around selling rifles and shotguns; fewer selling revolvers and pistols, but a fair number.

Glock prices continue to come down. A private table seller had 2 G36's ANIB for $450 each OTD. I would have paid that 2 or 3 years ago, but now I figure I can do even better.

A walk around guy had a Kahr P9 ANIB with 3 factory mags and couldn't get anybody to give him $400 for it.

Saw a "gold" plated Desert Eagle walking around.

A table seller who carries a lot of GI surplus stuff was there. I had not seen him at a show for quite a while. He was out of the GI 45 mags that I had bought from him in the past, but he had AR15 stuff and ammo.

Bought a used Victorinox pocket knife for $5. The guy said they were ones that had be confiscated at airports. He has a Red Cross type banner over his tables.

Saw a Ruger 480 or 454 (don't remember which) hunting revolver at a private table for $550.

Bought a Star Megastar 10mm pistol for $375 OTD. poppy
 
I tell ya, the last couple of shows up here in NE OH have been packed too. I wonder what the deal is. Had to park out in the mud today at Conrad Dowdel Medina show.
 
I was at the goodmans show and it was packed as well, there might have been a few more tables than usual. I like going to the PRO show so I was disappointed they were on the same date.
 
I was at the Medina show today too. I got there at 11 and it was PACKED. One of the guys said an hour earlier it was even worse. My friend was at Berea last week and said it was really bad too. I did see some pretty good prices, though. I checked out the Taurus 24/7 and really like it, I think I might get one. Also saw a RAP 440, which was cool. I hadn't seen one before. The price was $400, though.
 
Went to both shows Pro and Goodmans
both were decent shows the Dayton (Goodmans) is a little more tactical
but I like the Pro show (Roberts Center) better its cleaner and a little more room between the tables.
