    Normally decent. The hall is in a big shopping center; the shopping center throws signs up everywhere banning hall patrons from using "their" parking however that doesn't seem to be heeded. Even without that there is adequate parking and it's free.

    Got back late, ride over, traffic was heavy, ride back, snowy. Long day. Great show, worth the trip. Found a guy with new in the paper DDR butt stocks with metal, been looking for a few years for a deal. $20. I was looking for a M9 bayo, but got this for under $100.

    Very disappointed in this show. A lot more junk tables than normal for Oaks. Prices all over the place but no real deals to be had as far as I could see.

    Really ?? you didnt like the Smith and Wesson model 10 for 3850 ??? I thought it was 385. he wasnt taking out of state C and R's I was really bummed till the wife pointed out the real price.

    There was also alot of empty tables too

    My favorite was the $1000 beat-to-hell police trade in Super 90.

    I agree with Mr Fish, above. My buddy and I drove up, we will not be going back, as the trip is too far from MD to make the show worth it. We agreed that Harrisburg and York, despite being smaller, had the same basic selection and deals. Oaks merely had more of the same stuff. I ended up purchasing absolutely nothing. My friend bought 3 mags because they were $5 cheaper than elsewhere. Overall, this was a waste of time for a Marylander like me.

    I’ve been contemplating going to this show but haven’t gone because of the long drive. After the above reports I’m glad I didn’t go. I’ve also heard the parking sucks too. I’m sure I’ll think about going to the big one in March.

    Parking is better on Fridays for obvious reasons. Crapshoot the other days. Maybe a long walk, maybe not.
