    How do you think gunshows will be now?

    I am planning on going to the costa mesa gunshow in a couple of weeks. Do you think its going to be out of control crowded? Is it going to be crappy now that most uppers and lowers are really low on hand? Think there will be any good deals at all or will everything be uberly inflated?

      I predict with the Obama panic that jerkey and airsoft sales will increase ten fold!

      Man there are no real predictions from me right now other than everything gets scarce and business slows down unless you can manage to find anything which might be very hard to do.

        i think that the shows (Glendale this weekend, Costa Mesa the weekend afther Turkey day) will be PACKED with buyers. However, I am not so certain about how much stuff there will be available for purchase....except jerkey.

                Went to the cow palace gunshow last saturday and it was very crowded after about 11 (I was there at 9).
                gun prices have deffinatly risen esp ar lowers (cheapest I noticed was 250 most were closer to 300)
                Ammo prices were normal in my opinion

                  Smaller shows in Nor Cal will not be as crowded, but definitely seeing the panic set in. Expect prices to increase as demand continues and supply runs out. It's very difficult to get certain items already through the wholesalers and OEMS, so hang on to your hats.

                    Gun shows will be a thing of the past..
                    They will be known as the "Knick-Knack and Jerky shows"
                    Once Obama/Biden have done their thing.

                    Actual gun shows will just be a thing of the past..like when you used to be able to walk into a show and look at all the cool AW's that were all banned by Clinton.

                    You used to be able to buy hi-caps to your hearts content or at least until your card screamed.."No More!"

                      Economy sucks too and Xmas is coming so I don't think shows will be insanely crowded.

                        The coldwar shooter table is worth the admission....oh and that cute Russian girl at the jewlery booth too.

                        If you are going for ammo get there early as everything gets sold fast.

                          I've been to just a couple of shows in the last 15yrs. Bummed out to say the least. Certainly wasn't like the good ole days before slick willie decided to ruin everything forever.

                              FYI... Nov. 15th & 16th show in Ferndale is now cancelled due to the promoter having a death in the familty. Ferndale rescheduled for Dec 13th & 14th.

                              Bummer deal, but I hope to see you guys in Red Bluff Nov. 22nd & 23rd, or Yuba City 29th & 30th.
