    Bakersfield

    Is anyone going to the show this weekend?

    Update what you find there, if you do go.

    Not a chance, but I'll be curious to hear how it goes.

        I go about every five years mostly to verify that there's no use going to it.

          I would rather go to Walmart on Black Friday then go to a gun show.

            I still have a bunch of deer jerky left so I don't need to go.

                I haven't gone in a couple years. The last time I went it was pitiful, probably never going again.

                  Is this the same worthless show that was in Visalia a few weeks ago? "Rocky Mountain Gun Show" which translated to english means "I have no clue where to actually purchase this stuff and know nothing about guns!"
                  What a huge waste of time going to that show was!
                  Some people talk about it and some people do it.

                    I went. Turn out was light (but I went at noon, not at the crack of 9 with all the ammo junkies). Saw a flyer for a Prepper Expo this June at the same place. Actually looks pretty promising. http://www.prepare2endure.com

                      I went and picked up some 7.62x25 and .303 British for a good price.

                        I went today and got an AR500 target and some beef jerky.

                        Ammo was still crazy high but not as bad as it was a couple of months ago and there was a decent amount of .308 and .223/5.56 as well when I walked out by 230.

                        I was able to find plenty of .223 for about 50 cents a round which is still too rich for my blood.

                        A couple of vendors had AR rifles which were all north of 1k but at least they weren't all frankenguns.

                        One thing I would like to know is who is the vendor with 3 booths of knock off magpul stuff with Spanish speaking only staff and expensive as hell AR uppers?

                        Of note there were plenty of 20 and 30 round rebuild kits going north of 20 dollars a pop and one vendor had the CMMG AR lower parts kit for 95 dollars which is the lowest non online price I have seen in months.

                          My brother said that someone was trying to sell .22 lr boxes of 550 for $150. That gave me a good chuckle.

                            I went. I always do. Unlike many I have found many good deals over the years. Handguns, etc. Limited Edition S&W Performance Center editions, Cowboy Action stuff...

                            Went about 1PM. Miwall still had ammo, M1 Carbine was the same price as CMP! The difference being that CMP was sold out, bought 8 boxes. I can reload it but too lazy right now.

                            LOts of EBRs, prices vary.

                            Saw the $150/Brick of 22 guy, none sold. He must have nothing better to do then buy a table and sit all weekend for no sales.

                            Talked to my friend Harold Morgan with the NRA table he is selling memberships at a much higher rate then even a couple of years ago. People are finally joining up to suppor the cause!

                            Good show overall but either go with a specific list or be open to deals that you run across...
                            TURNING and turning in the widening gyre
                            The falcon cannot hear the falconer;
                            Things fall apart; the centre cannot hold;
                            Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world,
                            The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere
                            The ceremony of innocence is drowned;
                            The best lack all conviction, while the worst
                            Are full of passionate intensity.
