Actually, I don't normally go to gunshows to buy guns. I go for accesories, parts, and the odds and ends I normally won't find around town. I have bought a few guns at gunshows, but it was about five in the span of 25 years. All from dealers also.
I don't buy from random strangers (except gunbroker and only through FFLs), there is just too much of a chance the gun might be stolen or non-functioning. Locally I buy from people I know and can get back in touch with if a problem arises.
