Bastrop Gun show

[jmohme]

Just got a flyer in the mail that there will be a gun show at the Bastrop Convention & Exhibit Center this coming weekend January 6-7.

I am usualy on the road when these shows happen, but this weekend I am home so might just go take a look around

Figures. I'll be out of town this weekend.

Hoping to get there as they open. But need to into work for a coupke of hours

I think I've finally figured out why they call it a "Gun Show" from the $$$ they want for them, they seem more interested in showing them than selling them.

Yep, at the Alzafar Shrine on north 1604 in Stone Oak. Not a bad show, but the San Marcos one (by the same promoter) is much better!

I just got out of work. Which one should I go to?

You would think that the organizers of these shows would get together and coordinate thier calendars.

I will go to Batrop today because I live here. Maybe I will head to Temple after that, but probably not.

They had a nice selection of gun vendors. Small inside but pleasantly surprised. I almost went to the one in Temple.

I had sticker shock at the temple show,
The dried sausage guy now sells 1! 1 link for 9 dollars! Wow I think the last time I bought any I got two links for 10 bucks or something. ‍

Went to the Pasadena show yesterday.
Typical asshattery on prices on anything remotely classic.
H&R Model 999 - $1600
Winchester 9422 - $2000
S&W Model 27 - $2200
Ruger Vaquero - $1000
Etc.
mass produced polymer pew-pew’s were all about the same prices.
The one reasonable deal I saw was a Rossi M92 SS .44mag lever for $620.
These are usually $700 and up.
I would of bought that but I already have a M92 .44.
These days gun shows are entertainment.

I was shocked to see Mosing Nagants in the upper $400 range. but then again I haven't been around gun stores since before the rona

From what I've seen, that is the typical price. I sold mine last year for about $350.00 IIRC. I still have ammunition to sell off as I don't expect to buy another MN.
