I'm thinking of taking a rifle to see what kind of offers I get.

 

[EvilleFirepower]

Where is it? (Not as in Evansville; as in Civic Center, Armory, etc.)

I believe it is at the 4H Center.

I believe it is at the 4H Center.

Thanks for the help. That was enough info to yield results in google. Evansville Gun and Knife Show - 4H Center - Dec. 20-21

How much and what type?

 

[jwalt01]

I have a new CETME sporter 308 only shot once (100 rounds).
I'm courius what some one will offer me.

Going....have been disappointed in the past. I'm being optimistic this time though. I actually have some $$ saved for any opportunities I see I this time.

Dad actually called me up 2 weeks ago and said he wanted to make a day of gun shows/store hopping. He's 100% convinced "The Messiah" is going to implement the 400% tax on ammo after he takes office. So 4H center in the morning...and Wittaker's in the afternoon....and Moonlight BBQ for lunch. Yum.

 

[jwalt01]

I went to Whittakers this week his ar shelf is getting bare.
He had about 10 ar's left two weeks ago there was about
40 to 50 ar's so good luck.

 

[Clay]

oh what and where is Whittakers? and did someone say BBQ?

 

[jwalt01]

Whittakers is about 5 miles west of Owensboro, Ky.

What a freaking joke it was. Won't ever be back (NO Trading Inside). Must support the gunshow loophole law...

$1300 for an Olympic AR15
$1400 for a Winchester 9410

One guy had a bunch of reasonably priced Colt 1911s.

 

[brainslushy]

Yep...agree. Complete joke. Very disappointed...AGAIN!

One guy, trying to sell Mosin Nagants for $129. 6 Months ago..same guy...same booth...had them for $99. I think most of the tables in there are store dealers that still try to mark up their stuff and sell at these things. I dunno if they're trying to get in on the "Obama" hype or what.....pretty sick though. Gun shows just don't seem fun anymore.

On another note, I did buy a Mosin Nagant down at Whittakers for $80. Picked up some ammo for it and shot about 20 rounds this afternoon. Shoulder has bruising.

 

[Bigum1969]

I agree as well. I was sorely disappointed in the show today. Crappy selection and what was available make Gander Mountain look cheap. Spent 45 minutes there and went on my way.

 

[johnb62]

About 30 minutes for me yesterday morning. No laws have changed yet I noticed substantial increases in some items. I saw Glock mags for $40.

Was at Whittakers last weekend. I agree thier selection is not what it usually is. Thier Kimber case was bare bones.

 

[NEOCON]

I had no intention of going and did not go. Glad to hear I didn't miss anything, sorry to hear some of you that went were disappointed.
I did however did buy a new XDM on friday though.

Congratulations on the new gun. The show was a waste of time.
