The guys from Somoma Firearms are gonna be there, thats whats gets me to go, other that that I go for the shirts, stickers, and ammo.

Ah, the good old days....

When I had my first FFL in 1992, the Sac Gun Show was a sight to behold. Tables of just Colt 1911's, Luger historians, HK sub guns, revolvers of every type, AR-15 upper dealers, SAA mecca, and all the little dealers with tables o' handguns for sale.

Now, it's just a couple guys selling average guns you can buy anywhere, jewelry, jerky, nazi memorabilla, crap optics, old surplus, expensive knives, and junk. I guess one could get a good deal on ammo there but after admission and gas, is it a good deal anymore?

I guess I am just bitter because CA pisses me off.

I hear ya.. I moved out here from Kentucky...I use to LOVE the gun shows out there..anything and everything for sale :-)... good deals too... cash and carry... but if I can at least get a good deal on some ammo I guess it'll work! My wafe's cousin who is 11 or 12 wants to go with me so it'll be his first gun show.. should be fun :-)... is cold war shooters ever at the SAC gun show?

I went to 2 shows in Sac a year ago. they were nice. pricey guns, miwall ammo and ammo cans. thats about it. It is a bit bigger than vallejo shows.

Whats the going rate for ammo cans at the shows these days? I haven't been to the Sacto show for a while, but I'm in need of a bunch of cans... seeing if its worth the trip down, or if I can hold out for a trip to the Army surplus store next time I'm in the Arden area..

[Darklyte27]

I bought some cans at the vallejo show a month or two ago, they were 7$? for a 50 cal box. The guy had a combo where you got a Fat 50 cal box, a small 50 cal and a 30 cal box for 20$ if i remember correctly..

Free admission for 12 and under, my 2 kids will go too.

Not to my knowledge... I think the SJ show, and CowPalace are their first ventures up to the great "north"

[CCRBUM]

hey Thanks for that info tiko!.. can some one tell me the standing position on trading or selling C&R guns at a gun show here in Cali?

[packnrat]

the doj and sac police take a video of everybody going in and coming out...they want to know who is buying what.

the cams are off a bit so you can not see them. and it is under the guise of security.
