Default Boise and Homedale gun shows, February.

Boise gun show (Ford Idaho center Nampa)
February 4th and 5th

Homedale gun show (Owyhee county fairgrounds community bldg) Homedale.
Feb 25th and 26th.

Calguns has become excruciatingly slow to load for me lately and is almost unusable. I’ll try and check back after the weekend and see if any of the crew scored anything cool. Good luck everyone. I’ll be there saturday at both shows.

Sorry for the dupe post. I was trying to make this post and kept getting a server error. I saved it and tried it again later. Each attempt took forever. Anyway, once it finally went through I saw I had two posts announcing the shows. Server is so slow I don’t feel like trying to delete the dupe.
Good luck at the show! Don’t forget to ask the independents if they have anything underneath their table. I’ve found some great stuff just asking.

I attended the show today, and spent a couple hours wandering the aisles looking for something, anything that got my interest enough to buy. Finally gave up and headed towards the exit in despair, and just before I got there i ran into a fellow selling an AR15. He said he was tired of carrying it around and asked me to make an offer. So, I did. One thing led to another, and I walked out with it. It's a standard configuration A2 rifle, and I couldn't resist because the price was really good. Don't really need it, but will be a fun toy to have. When I get tired of it I will be able to easily sell it for more than I paid, so that's a plus.

A diverticulitis flare up kept me from this show, but I'll be at the Twin Falls show in Filer next weekend.

One thing of note - there was a vendor selling primers for $80/1000, and was also selling by the case. Still a horrible price, but a lot better than the other vendors who were trying to sell for $120.

$80/100 or $80/1000? Black Sheep, a local store in CDA, is down to $8/100. Still to high. I still have some that were $25/1000.

Fixed the error, thanks for pointing it out. $80/1000.

After the last panic was over, I was at the Reno show and bought a case of each type for $124/case. And along the way I augmented that total as I came across good deals. I'm good for a few years to come.
