    Big Reno Gun Show

    I could not believe the ammo prices !!!! People think they have gold !!! $60 for a crappy box of 45 acp. Gun prices are thru the roof !!!!!

    Huge amount of jewelry dealers. No parts dealers. Seemed like nothing more than a museum amongst a over priced garage sale.

    Shop on line and save a trip !

    Very disappointing !!!

    Big Reno gun shoe?



    At my local gun show this weekend, primers we’re $175/1000 and powder was $45 a pound.

      Haven’t been there in years, but The Big Reno Show used to be really good, like in the mid to late 90s.

          Went to our local gun show in Ukiah yesterday. Ammo prices through the roof, and these were for old beat-up boxes of average stuff. No powder or primers (that I saw). Rusty old worn out reloading tools, holsters, belts, etc. Some nice rifles that were over priced but within negotiation range (if I were in the market, which I am not). New Glocks were $100 over MSRP.

          I usually go just to cruise around and see what each table has, seldom actually looking for anything. I bought a 9mm loading block for $2.00 (whoopie).

            You may need to go try out Boise or Salt Lake City gun shows next time.
            I went to the BRS and actually saw a couple of interesting AKs.

              Any gas-powered lawn mowers or leaf blowers being sold at the show?

                    Haven’t went for a decade. Once the “No California” sale signs went up, I never went back

                      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).

                          They too will soon be banned in this state. Get them while you still can.

                            Last show I went to the ammo boxes looked like they had been bouncing around since they were new in the 90's.
