Albany Gun Show

[grampy]

Went to The Plaza this morning with my hunting partner for the gun show. Lots of cool stuff and some beautiful guns!

Just two that had me wide eyed and bushy tailed.

First is an Ithica chambered in 6mm.

Next up is this TC in 223. What an awesome predator rifle!

 

I showed alot of restraint walking out of there with just a few odds and ends!

Any other capital region members go to this show?

Grampy I use to go but prices seemed to be very high for used guns in poor condition.  New ones seemed high unless you found the dealer who wanted to move them.

Our local dealers never seem to go which I found odd .

How was security?

Security was very tight and all around.

There were a couple of local dealers there, but not as many as you'd think, for a show in this area.

Actually, if you really looked, there were quite a few sweet deals to be had! But like you said, overall it was alot of overpriced crap. And of course, in Andy Azzhole's backyard, no AR's to speak of. Though a very nice Ruger Mini Mag in 223 caught my eye! 

Some beautiful older guns. A couple that I'm sure Dinsdale would love to bring on his next trip to Africa.  But high dollars.

The Ithica I pictured above I could have had for $600. But alas.......my wife had me leave the checkbook home........

All in all, it was nice to go and get out for the morning with my buddy. It was getting way too crowded for my comfort, when we headed out around noon.

I might possibly go sunday for the tail end of the show to see if I can wheel and deal them.
