Flea Market with Guns NE IN

[mdemetz]

Newbury Square in Shipshewana is having a swap/flea market this Saturday. I stopped there last fall and was suprised at the amount of guns. Of course most are bolt action rifles and shot guns. I did see 1 table with pistols. Also a lot of small animals(puppies,pidgeons,ducks).
There is a sports shop across the street with hunting,bow and fishing equipment. Behind that is a place that sells solar/wind power equipment and generators. And on SR5 towards town is E&S Sales, a popular bulk food store.
Newbury Square is on the South side of US20 a 1/4 mile West of the SR5 intersection. This is an outdoor swap. $2 parking.

Thanks for the info. I might check this out as I will be up north this weekend. Is this the only flea market that has guns in Indiana or does anyone else know of others?

Come to the Decatur flea market. First sunday of every month. Lots of guns, there is even a class 3 dealer who sets up.

There was a flea market called Croy Creek Traders Fair just south of U.S. 40 about 8 miles east of Terra Haute that had guns. Also guns at Bargersville south of Indy. I personally won't patronize a flea market that bans guns. I think the one near Terra Haute is still there. 1st and 3rd weekends of the month. Bargersville is every weekend.

If your going to Shipshewana, you gotta stop at Yoder's Meats and Cheese. Great smoked meats. Their jerky and summer sausage are amazing.

Strawtown Auction Barn has a flea market on Thursday evenings, guns can be bought and sold there. I haven't seen any screaming deals (a guy last night had a rattletrap WASR for $450) but I'm sure occasionally there are some.

A bit less guns this time, only 1 pistol, some ammo and scopes.
Lots of ducks,puppies,chickens,pidgeons and even some hedgehogs
Next ones are 6/18,7/16,8/27,9/24 & 10/22.

Saw a guy driving West on US20 last time with a goat in the passenger seat.

Is that anything at all like the flea market at the Wilshire Sportsman's Club?



I bet every 3rd firearms sale there is an illegal transfer. *sigh*

That was no goat, that was my mother-in-law!

I thought the ATF specifically prohibited dealers from selling at flea markets/swap meets that weren't sanctioned gun shows... Not 100% sure... I'll have to look that up later...

Isn't Indiana a great state for people who believe in the second amendment?!?!?!?!?!!!!!
