    Not sure what I"m going to walk out with but I"ll be there Sat afternoon w/ my Dad.

    One thing I'll be looking for is a Mosin Nagant 91/30 spare front sight. Hoping for a parts table.

    Never been to a show, can I bring something to carry good in like a carry-on type luggage with wheels? Backpack, empty gun case?

    For purchase of a non-regulated firearm, do I need anything other than Drivers Lisc?

    A backpack is great for small stuff you buy, gun parts, knives, lights, mags ect . . .
    Lots of people carry them at gun shows.

    Girlfriend is getting her sleep schedule re-adjusted so I may be delayed getting there, but if I'm not seeing reports of a 2 hour wait to get in I'll show up if for no other reason to make it known that yes guns are popular in this region, and no us gun owners aren't going anywhere.

    Does this show allow one to walk around with a backpack and a sign saying what you have to sell?

    Yes for backpacks, signs I've seen some in the past.

    And, EVERYBODY double and triple check to make sure things are unloaded. Last thing we need is somebody getting hurt by something that slipped through.

    This is my first time going to a gun show and I'm trying to purchase my first gun: Does anyone have a suggestion on what to do if I'm looking for a particular handgun? Thanks! (Sitting in my car in the parking lot of the show at Rhett moment)

    Try not to get ripped off. Check out some IP tables and let them know you are a member. If you don't find something at a decent price then move on. No need to spend your hard earned money on something that is frenzy priced.

    Keep in mind that IP's are always posting good deals here.

    Heading out for the insanity now. I'll be the guy wearing the Edelbrock jacket with the bewildered look on my face followed by a younger and older version of myself.

    Freezing rain expected so it should be interesting.
