Just info for anyone attending this weekend's show. It will be crowded, but some of the main dealers, (Ed's Gun Shop) won't be there. Ed is on his way to SHOT Show.

I'll probably stop by if for no other reason than to get some of my closer friends interested in gun ownership and practicing their rights. I'm sure it'll be a mad house, but we shall see...

It was bad. I think it took most people about an hour through the line to get in. And yes, once you got inside, everything was way overpriced. But there was a lot to see.

I chose to go to the range on Saturday and stopped in at the show around 11am on Sunday. Sunday wasn't too bad. Yes, it was all overpriced but I didn't have to wait terribly long to get in. According to the guys over at Fuquay Gun&Gold, who I usually do most of my business with, there was a 25 ft. line waiting to do paperwork at their table all day on Saturday. Glad I avoided it...

There was a few dealer's tables, including Fuquay and Village Pawn that were lined up deep waiting to do paperwork. It was a long wait for those making purchases. Most of us did well selling, even ones like me that were not price gouging.
