Show was fair,what happened to Ruger,Savage and a few others?
So is it worth driving 2 hours on a weekend in the rain for? Or just skip it and hit the big Oaks show?

Family is going on Sat. Morning , what are some deals I should not miss . Knives , maybe rifles .
Thanks for letting us know. I was going to check it out to see what gun companies and products there were to be had...
Any of the gun manufacturers (or independent sellers) selling standard cap mags on site for their products? Need SCAR 16 FDE mags, FN FNX-45 FDE mags, Beretta M9A3 FDE mags, Glock 17 FDE mags, & Sig Sauer P320 9mm FDE mags. Yeah, been on an FDE kick lately. Too many black guns, but the FDE colors have proven tough to find matching mags for. I’m willing to brave the crowds today if I can bring back what I need.I was there Wednesday, as squaregrouper said, they are not actually selling any guns, but there is a large offering of manufacturers and related companies that are showing there wares and some deals to be had on some peripherals. The 'shooting sports' section is but one of several sections, including archery, fishing, boats, outfitters, etc.. There is an app for your smartphone that shows all the vendors and layouts, etc... just search for Great American Outdoor Show.

You would have a better chance of finding liberals at that show than those mags.
As mentioned the York show or the Chantilly/DC which is going on this weekend would be the place for that.
Had a decent time at the show but really was a direct repeat of last year. I really just find interest in the firearms stuff which was a 1/5th of the show. I wanted to venture much more into the fishing section but it wasn’t what I expected.
I’m not sure I would go next year $14+$10 parking+3hr round trip and terrible food to see the exact same vendors with 98% same products.
Was zero free stuff this year which was also a bummer.
Only highlight was getting to chat with TGC (The Gun Collective) Co-Host Adam Kraut for awhile about various topics as he gets ready to run for the board of directors at the NRA. Hopefully if elected along with a few others they can move the NRA in a better direction.
We booked our Montana Elk hunt first thing Monday and then began the arduous process of interviewing AK guides.
We spoke to about 20. Geesh what a lot to sort out.
It's true - much to our shock as well. I can get a 7 day hunt for African plains game for about $5K less than an AK hunt for the same duration. If you add in round trip airfare to Johannesburg and it about evens out.I wasn't shopping for guides, but my buddy mentioned that all inclusive trips to South Africa actually cost less than the Alaskan trips. I found that very interesting.
