    I can't make it up there for the show this weekend, but if you don't sell the M1 Garands there I'd be curious to get some info on them.

    I don't know any details about them, but I walked by at closing time today and I did see two Garands getting packed up to go back home with Brian.

    Top Hat weeps
    had to look it up. lolol

    They were fat, ugly men with wicked faces [...] dressed in a long black coat which was called a frock coat, and a queer, shiny hat shaped like a stovepipe, which was called a top hat. This was the uniform of the capitalists, and no one else was allowed to wear it."

    These gun shows always have horrible pricing on guns and ammunition. I’ve heard dealers say they upcharge as high as they can at gun shows because that’s where the most gullible gun buyers go. I avoid most gun shows these days.
    Agree for the most part. Timonium is one of the worst. At least at York and Gettysburg I can find more C&R stuff and higher cap mags

    from what i've read here, other than the antiques show once a year, i'll be passing on any more maryland shows.

    No, google won't help, I think he's talking about Top Hat the person who used to be a popular fixture at MD and Southern PA gun shows.

    Didn't know his name, but he was a character.
    He was a character and a good guy. He had the sales business and also was a firearms instructor.
    He conducted LEOSA qualification classes at a range in NJ.

    I used to enjoy stopping at his booth at the old Silverado show in Upper Marlboro. I think I still have a big bag of patches I bought from him.
