Indy 1500 Gun Show. Any One Going or Been There This Weekend?
« on: January 12, 2013, 07:13:36 AM »
Thinking about going Sunday. It will cost me about 35.00 bucks by the time I pay for my entrance fee, parking and gas cost. Not sure if it is worth it. If you have been did you find any good deals to make it worth while, or is it a jacked up mess?

Used to go but in the last 4 or 5 years it has turned into such a cluster I haven't been there for a while and will never go back.  Friends that are dealers who have set up there for years have all refused to return.  It's a circus environment for everyone involved so no matter what kind of "deals" may or may not exist they will exist without us.  Not even safe in the parking lot anymore.   :o

Well, I got my dates mixed up. The gunshow is this upcoming weekend. So question will stand, but just forward it into the future.  :o

It's about $35 for me to go to the show.  I don't think it's worth the time and money.

yall have to pay for parking at your
gun show ? ? ?


that's terrible. . . .


i'd stay away too.
of course, it's probably like the rest of 'em
this day and age. deals are few and far between
at shows anymore. when i go anymore, it's
usually to look for a part or something specific
i wouldn't find otherwise.
good luck to you
18 MINUTES.  . . . . . .

If anyone goes keep a look out for 22LR ammo and please give a report back on availability and prices.  I hear it's scarce.
