Gun Lovers:
Went to gun show in Collinsville IL yesterday. Daughter went with me and it was a treat helping her learn a great deal more about guns. The only things we bought were not even gun related (sun glasses, pocket knife, magnifying glass) although I did try to trade my 44 mag Raging bull for a TC Encore. No deal. 22 ammo was way over priced, but large pistol primers weren't too bad. Couldn't find any reloader 15 anywhere. Mostly it was just good dad and daughter time. She was attracted to a very small 380 that was purple. We looked at a Henry Golden Boy in 44 mag. It was right at MSRP. I think the old saying is right . . . if you go to a gun show you have to be in the know. (Okay that's not an old saying, just made it up.)
Live well be safe.
