gunshow
« on: October 07, 2006, 09:12:46 PM »
I went to a gunshow today and the prices were ridiculous! new handis for up to $365, used handis for $275. Not just one vendor, but that seemed to be the norm. It seems like every year the shows get worse. This was in northern Ar. Is it like this everywhere?

Hey, the few shows that I have been to, here in MN the last couple years, you were lucky to find even ONE at any price.  Maybe they are just IN DEMAND more down there and it is driving up the price.  There are still a lot of folks around that will buy at that price just because they don't know about them.

Gun show prices are crazy.  I went to several gun shops yesterday.  I saw a new .45-70 for $239.95 and a new 7-08 with mounted scope for $249.95.
