If that wouldn't sound like a flock of 7-yo's pinging each other on Ch. 1/no-PL at Killington a dozen years ago,
I don't know what would.
Really? "Baofeng" is the core of the understandable half?
It'll be even funnier when some guy keys up and it goes blaring "hey watch out for that dude shitting his pants near the overpriced mag guy!!!!"
"There's some onery looking bitch pointing at me from afar, she just waddled out of the show office..."
"That's the same shitbird that wouldn't take my coupon photocopy!!!"
"Hey check this s*** out on the back wall there's some guy trying to get like five hundred bucks for a Para Warthog!!!! "
"If you look at the two ATF dudes in the back, one is clearly desiring a nap. I feel his pain. "
" ask that guy with the flobert parlor rifle if he will take a couple of pedestal sinks and a garbage disposal in trade for it"
We'd probably get kicked out by the promoters goons in like 20 minutes. That could potentially be pretty fun though.

AGO clamped down on unlicensed ammo sellers at gun shows so I wouldn't expect to see that deal again.

Well for one thing it doesn't leave behind a grand worth of prostitute money.

I was happy to see more minorities at the show. Now enough women though, especially those between the ages of about 25-40, 5'4", 125 lbs, any background, with short shorts and-oh, wait, this is a gun forum isn't it. My bad!

Like Fowler wore in Four Brothers. (Shockingly, I can't find a pic or a YT of the scene. Lots of discussion, no visual evidence. Too bad. Would have worked well here. LOL)
Glad I didn't go. I wasn't planning on it, based on the lack of shows and such. Then I smashed my foot last Saturday and hobbling is no fun. Maybe if I was assured of some deal I'd hobble. But no deal? No hobble.
Reptile complaining of Glock mag prices. Wow. They must have been crazy!
I was thinking the same thing. I was thinking, "Geez - I've gotta have dozens of those things." Because everyone always says they are worth $1 each. But I've also got 2 cases of CMP enbloc loaded ammo - I think in the cotton carriers. Honestly - if I EVER shoot all of that in my lifetime, I'd be surprised.
If I was smart, I'd sell the Garand, sell the enbloc ammo and move on. But I can't part with it. "What if I want it again later?" I've sold a lot of guns over the years. Only one I regret - my G19. I replaced it for about $200 more than I sold it for years earlier. That still bothers me for some reason. LOL

Get everyone else to just bring in H/T's to "monitor",
then "seed the net" from a candyvan in the parking lot.
That right there is tiger-blood levels of winning.

Who the hell would want to wait in that line?? I'd rather go to the range and do something useful then stand in line for an hour. You ain't going to find many deals at gun shows anymore. But to each their own.

Only hot chippy I ever seen (outside of the daughter of the old target guy - I never got that. "Here daughter of mine - wear this tight shirt so dudes see your tits. It'll sell more targets and holsters.") related to a gun show had to be 15 years ago.
We did the old Rockingham show. It was snowing like a B-word. Crazy. No idea why we drove up, but we did.
In and out in about an hour. If that. NO ONE was there. Because THERE WAS 6" OF SNOW ON THE GROUND!
After, 2Guys has some Playboy Playmate there as a meet-and-greet. So we swung over, saw her, grabbed some cigars and then went for an early lunch.
Poor 2Guys - even that event was dead b/c of the snow. It was 6" of heavy wet nasty stuff. It was probably gone the next day. And by the time we were half-way back home (south of Boston) there was no snow.

Thankfully it wasn't January when it's 20 degrees out. Then you need to make a choice - dress for the 1-1.5 hours in the cold (because at 8:47 it took 55 min. The guy that showed up 30 min earlier than you wasn't THAT much further in line than you were) or the 2-3 hours indoors. Sometimes that's a tough call. Either freeze or roast or a little of both.
My most dehydrated days are gun shows. I don't care how much I hydrate. I get to lunch and I'm sucking down 2-3 tall glasses of water or diet soda or unsweetened iced tea.

Oh, you’re that guy. Don’t worry, homeless Jeff Spicoli would be all over that.
