    Good deals for what? Firearms are invariably overpriced at California gun shows and the rest is cheap crap.

    Do you mean ammunition?

          You can find .22lr now but the prices went from $45 - $75 for a brick. Primers I saw went for $23 for 1k. Boat loads for ammo boxes for cheap. More pistols on display probably due to SSE ban. Oh, and less Nazi crap.

                Does anyone remember going to the Pomona Gun show (and Costa Mesa) back in the 80's and early 90's? Those were the days!

                  Next time dont ask about guns shows because the people here will piss and moan about the beef jerky, and jewelry. They will also reminisce about the "good ol days".

                  If you want to go just go. I usually see something neat that I can ask a card for and check out later.

                      Been to the Costa Mesa one a few times....never bought squat.
                      Now it's the ammo guys and only 1 person can go into the tent at once or some ludicrous rules of that sort....tehfeck ?
                      Everyone line up....all 50,000 of ya.

                      You guys need to go to a gunshow outside of Krapifornia.
                      It's still like it was back in the day.
                      Granted prices are higher, but selection is still good and none of the "my god we're all gonna die!!!!1" rules like at Cost a Misery....err Coitus Mercy.....uhh....Costa Mesa.

                      Just went to the Tulsa Ok. show a month ago or so.
                      Touted as being the largest gunshow in the world.
                      Supposed to have been like 15,000 vendors.
                      It was big.
                      I bought stuff that wasn't overpriced.
                      Bought a rifle and walked away with it.

                        Beer $12.

                        Is that a good deal?

                        Fewer people are killed with all rifles each year (323 in 2011) than with shotguns (356), hammers and clubs (496), and hands and feet (728).

                          I haven't seen a deal worth mentioning since 2008...

                          Sucks cause back then that place use to be the business. These days, Mitch is pretty spot on.
