Does anyone recall what shop was in the back right area with all the modern rifles and pistols? They were in the row between the ancient surplus gear and the Chinese pocket knife dealers...
Just got back from a 9-1:30 stint at the MSI booth. The show was way off volume wise, but that's not surprising as it has dropped a little each time over the last two years.
Worked the MSI table with DCW, Brooklyn, and Shafted, and finally met Road Dawg in person. Also so Yoshi and his son, as well as few others. Spoke with lots of interested people, and signed up quite a few on our email/information list.
Interesting conversation with former Baltimore County Sheriff Norman M. Peppersack. He says he was the former Commander of the MSP licensing division from '72 through '84, or thereabouts, but said he is very supportive of what MSI is trying to do. He didn't have anything good to say about OweMalley, FSA 2013, etc.
Spoke to a fine retired marine, with 2 tours in Vietnam, who wanted to by a pistol but doesn't have his HQL. One of the firearms dealers sent him our way to try an explain the BS hurdles that even our veterans are faced with.
Retired military don't need a HQL.
Fred Rector @ 410 490 7663That was Fred. SB281Blaster on here. If I can dig up his business card I'll post his info.
I thought the show was okay but fewer vendors and attendees. Was some good stuff though.

The one prior to this was jam-packed, both vendors and attendees.
It varies seasonally, as mentioned before, as well as with the general political climate.
Unfortunately he was not retired, just served.
There you go, I knew there was an issue. His question was how, not if. Nice guy. All he wanted to do was buy a Springfield.
Probably also didn't help that there was a show in Gettysburg at the same time
I went to Timonium on Sat. and Gettysburg on Sun., Gettysburg was a much better show. $ 32 at Timonium and $ 355 at Gettysburg, just because of a better cross section of venders. didn't buy any guns, highest price item was an Encore .223 barrel at $ 225. Sorry to say, but maryland shows .are dieing because of SB681
WTF is SB681???
