Stupid things you have seen or heard at gun shows!

Was told at a forest Park gun show by a vendor I wasn't allowed to talk about HIS guns with other customers, I put his WASR back on the table and bought one from a different vendor, then came back and showed it to him. He tried to have me removed, he was told to mind his own business by the staff

...his reply was the FDE was a rare color combination in the Scout and he was lucky to get it. I came home and searched GB, and saw several for sale. Not rare at all. Typical ODT dealer.

FTFY

I hate it when a manual is WRONG!

Well, write Ruger and help tens of thousands of idiots to stop blowing themselves and their rifle up with NATO spec ammunition, LOL!

I'd like to add to the discussion but I haven't been to a show in a while, they just aren't worth it.

I imagine Eastman shows still suck, especially since they went to the much smaller venue at miller park last time in cobb iirc

I stopped going to gun shows about 2 years ago. It's just beginning to be a bunch of retail priced used guns, I can get those off craigslist

I've seen someone carry an M&P in a high ride holster on their hip. They weren't selling or trading the gun. You can't have it loaded, so why even bring it in the show?

I've seen a few people carrying their handgun in their hand with a full grip and finger on the trigger. I point them out to my wife and just shake my head.

I saw a line about 20 people long at the last show and found out it was for Anderson stripped lowers...this was at the last show in Perry a few months ago...November I think? I think he was selling them for $60 out the door. I had saw them earlier and had passed.

One vendor had complete uppers...wrapped in bubble wrap and then slid inside a cardboard tube. No price or information on them. I waited about 10 minutes to find out about them but the vendor was more interested in jaw jacking with someone else...oh well.

"How much are you looking to spend?" -Said to me as I picked up a Gen 3 Glock 19 laying on the dealer's table with no price information visible.

What? That's a fair question. A fella could drop 2k on a Glock.
