Valparaiso Gun and Knife Show - This Weekend SEPT. 26 & 27

[cyprant]

People thought sig arm braces were cool?

Obviously you're "too cool" for the sig arm brace... Thanks broseph!

 

[other dave]

I'm sure you can still sell it. I'm wondering if I will be able to pick up some 7.62x39 ammo if I go, or would it just be cheaper to pay the $250 per 1k and have it shipped. Also have a couple things I could sell.... I hate to be the douche walking around with a sign on my back of what I have to sell..lol.

A sign on your back is not being a douche. Standing right in front of a vendor's table hawking your wares ... that's being a douche. Nothing personal, just saying.

 

[Sniper 79]

I have misc brass and a Savage 110 in 22-250 I would love to see gone.

Took a front time garden tiller in on a trade I dont need either if anyone has any interest I could be there.

Six weeks, 5.5 hours.

 

[Knife Lady]

I always liked this show. Wish I was there. Brad and Dean are there. Stop by our 4 tables and say hi to the guys and fondle some nice sharp objects.

 

[other dave]

I' m happy. Brad's Knives, Hoosier Gun Trader from Monticello, Harvey's Custom Kydex Holsters from Battle Ground (EXCELLENT KYDEX), Jack Link's Jerky Products, Terry Miller Custom Knives, R&Z Targets, Black Bore Firearms, Flashlight Oulet (from Valpo), and MANY OTHERS are there! Look like another KICK ARSE Porter County show! Almost forgot INGO member walt o and his kick arse custom hand made grips!

 

[Knife Lady]

Another INGO advertiser besides us at the show is ZX Gun. They always have smoking good prices and they are very nice guys too.

 

[other dave]

Sorry Knife Lady! Didn't see them during Friday set-up!

 

[the only Qualk]

I may show up today but thinking tomorrow first thing. Looking for complete upper. Right now palmetto has 10.5" upper on sale but I am also interested in 16" uppers.

 

[cyprant]

Well, the Valpo show was cool. Definitly smelled fresher Than Crown Point show, but you could still count on catching a whiff of ass about every 15 minutes.

Is this just the standard scent of gun and knife shows?

Anyways, I went specifically to look for some new Knives to add to the collection. I basically just hung out at Brad's Knives & Knife Lady's Table. Brad was there with Dean Crail, awesome people if you haven't had the pleasure of talking with either of them, make an effort to, you won't regret it. Although, you may pick up a new habbit.... I walked away with a new microtech and added a couple reasonably priced customs to my "list". I almost doubled back to blow my wad on a BEAUTIFUL ADV Butcher, but I'm glad I didn't as I came home to a broken Dryer and burned up Vacuum Cleaner... Looks like I'll be spending my money on what my wife calls " more important stuff" in the morning. Pfff, what does she know about high end cutlery...

Anyways, if you are considering going to the show, Take a shower then Go to the show! Bring cash!

Ah, you got Crailed! You're stronger than I, resisting that AdV Butcher. Had you succumbed, it would have been a DOUBLE CRAILING!

 

[cyprant]

It was fun being crailed. Plan to do it again soon... Just need to sell a few more pieces of my wife's useless stuff like her jewelery with out a function...

So, Rhino, how long do you plan on riding this train ofnknife sobriety... You should reward your self for making 6 weeks! Buy a new knife!

[dugsagun]

I made about half a round before I sold me guide gun . I then of course had to get my usual candy, jerky & shirt for my fat butt heh.

 

[Expat]

It sounds like a great show. I wish I could go. But anything west of South Bend makes me nervous :-)

[Sniper 79]

Nice little show. Was able to off load my Savage for asking price in 2 seconds within the front door. Walked over to ZX and picked up another for the same price I had sold the other one for.

Next I went to a hand loader guy and sold a bunch of range pick up brass I had. Then hit the jerky guy and used the money from the brass sale to pick up some gator BBQ.

I don't think I was there an hour and zero money left my wallet. Nice time. I got me a new toy and some snacks.

 

[rhino]

I've heard good things about the Valpo show. I could go and visit a buddy in the area too, but it would have jeopardized my sobriety!

 

[walt o]

an addition to the family

Valpo show was GOOD for the family a new addition

 

[other dave]

Not to be outdone by my good friend walt o, look what followed me home from Valpo! A beautiful nickel S&W 439.
