I decided to take a ride on Saturday morning to go to the Manchester, NH Gun Show. The one I went to last year was OK, but I figured it was a nice day for a ride and I hadn't been to a show in a while, so my Dad and I headed up north.
You know when you go someplace and have no real expectations on how it will be, that you can sometimes can be pleasantly surprised. Well this gun show was like that for me. It had a lot of the same vendors they typically have, but overall I thought it was a great show. I actually saw a number of good deals to be had. One that was good enough for me not to pass up. A nice CZ-82 for $190. That's below dealer cost. Sweet! I also picked up a bunch of odds and ends I'd been looking for and talked with a bunch of the vendors. Great time and I'm glad I went.
The only down side, and this seems to be a reoccuring theme, was the prices the NY ammo guys had. A lot of the prices was significantly higher then what you could get in stores around here. As I said, typical. I was also happy to see the lack of the nauseating Nazi stuff that seems to be prevelant at a lot of these shows.
I didn't see any NES'rs up there, but it was pretty busy. Did anyone else go?
