      Yep it was smaller than usual. Going up against the So Cal show didn't help at all. However I did find everything I needed.
      It got packed pretty good after 10:30 am.

        interesting because it was crowded when i walked in and i thought i was in the wrong place. its been smaller with fewer vendors and attendees.

          seemed like there wasnt much stuff for reloading or many rifles or new stuff , well heres what i went for and i thought a good gun show would have the following,
          reloading dies for .223 , manual for a m1 carbine, good quility sharping stone,
          and some primers. nothing close

            This show was a tad smaller than before due to the simultaneous Yuba City and Costa Mesa shows.

            When you support the TS gunshow, you support the Nordykes.

            When you support the Nordykes, you support the Nordyke case.

            If you don't know what the Nordyke case is, you probably should: it's turning into one of the most important RKBA cases aside from Heller.

                This is why we should go to shows - I understand some things are overpriced but some time you'll find that thing you've been looking for like I did -

                    As a matter of fact - Mrs. Nordyke was the one in the booth selling tickets -

                        LOL - It is - She's very down to earth - I like the SJ show - Small like a garage sale kind of atmosphere -

                        A few things were "overpriced" for the moment - But I headed directly to all the C&R stuff because I wanted guns to come home with me right away -

                          Yeah, the show is cool. I was chattin it up with the guy at the ammo booth. Nice labs too.

                          I try to hit up all the shows around here just to go hang out and pick up ammo. The Vallejo show is starting to get it little shady lately, but I still go. I hope I don't get shot.

                              And 7.62X39 Saiga for $599? I was like WTF? I asked the guy if he is serious, and he said "Yes".
                              Now I'm so mad at myself for not buying it three month ago for $385.
