Gun Show Report--Portland

A very interesting report! As is often the case at gun shows, some of the very best deals walk in the door, they are not on the tables. The prices
seem to run from "Not Bad" to "Way Over Priced"
which is about par for the course.

Sometime, your best bet is to stay near the door and see what comes in. I bought a mint, all original, 1942 M-1 Carbine that way about 5 years
ago. I payed $225.00 for it, that's what the seller wanted for it.

Some days you eat the bear!
