Stupid People at GunShows

Johnny Peppers · 03-10-2002, 10:53 PM

At one time gunshows were put on by collectors clubs. It was a place for everyone to get together and have "show and tell". Some really nice firearms were found at these shows and you knew what you would find there. A show with only 50 tables of real collectibles was a great show. Now a 500 table show may not have 20 tables of real collectibles. The gunshows of the 50's and 60's were few and far between and you just didn't miss them as there might not be but two a year in your area. After the promoters got hold of the gunshows and opened them to anyone that wanted to buy a table, the quality went down and the frequency went up. On virtually any weekend you can drive a few miles to a so called gunshow, but won't find 2 tables of real collectibles.
