For anyone interested we will be hitting Greek village for breakfast, then the show a little after 10, then throwing some back at Bolans when they open at 11am-??

Won't be the same without Sinsitu this year.

Nothing good there on Friday. Lots of ammo though, but nothing cheap.

Saturday early afternoon me and my wife went. So crowded and warm in the Armory that it was uncomfortable. We left early and did not get to see much. The isles seemed so small you could barely walk 2 wide. The tables were so crowded together I kept seeing the vendors knock into their own supplies.

Not trying to down the show but I also heard others say that it was so ridiculously crowded that they had to get out of there. One said they were tired of being bumped into, another how hot it was. The one I felt bad for was a younger guy pushing a older gentleman in a wheelchair say "this is a crying shame my dad can not even see anything because they can not get down the isles and he lives for these shows"

Was there about 1 or so. Lots of stuff, and lots of people. Was a bit warm inside. Too cramped/crowded for me. But there's something I saw that I may have to go back for...lol

One of the better "pure" gun shows I've been, no jerky and socks or Chicom collections I saw. Slightly over crowded and the ventilation wasn't keeping up but we'll (I and Blue Fins) will be there tomorrow

Hmmm. I saw the guy with the LEE name tag, (although didn't know it was you) but nobody with a Mopar one?

One of the biggest problems with isles being backed up,from what i noticed,was people just standing in the isle and talking to friends ,not even talking to a vendor.Smaller isles = more tables and more products to view/buy.

Wife and I went Friday. Neither of us were really in a buying situation, but there was plenty to look at. It felt more crowded than I think it really was. There seemed to be too many tables crammed in...which, overall I guess is good. Better than not enough tables, right?

Or those chemical heating pads...I remember a show, probably Timonium, a few years ago where there were THREE different vendors aggressively pushing those things
