Good show as usual. LOTS of selection and some decent deals. I may head back tomorrow as I walked out with only a $7 book....

 

[Greenbug]

I have a really nice Smith model 27-2 3 1/2" that is way to nice to shoot. Think I'll take it for a walk around the show and see if I can't find it a new home.

I tried it today with my like new 36 chiefs special and everyone wanted to give wholesale prices. Maybe tomorrow will be better!

See any older Sako's?
Looking for a L461 Vixen in 222 Rem or 223 Rem to add to the collection.

Saw some Sakos but not sure details.

Very nice.

Here is my 36 from 1976/77 with original box and all contents...

Dang, those older Smiths are hard for me to resist.
That's a nice one!

 

[Natty Bumpo]

I saw an older Sako in .222 there today according to the tag.

I didn't pick it up so I don't know if it was a Vixen and I don't have any other details for you.

Came home with a vintage Colt Woodsman for myself.

Best show on the West Side.

I just cannot get myself to shoot it. So looking for something that I can actually take to the range.

 

[Member 5605]

You know the smell... old leather, old crusty lube turned crusty, some Mountian Man goodies.....

Bunch of stuff there.

Wish the one old man didn't want $75 for a magazine for my Grandpa's rifle... highway robbery.

 

[kmk1012]

How about any deals on 1911's? I'm still looking and may take one home tomorrow.

 

[PDXSparky]

Still trying to decide if I want to go back and get the CZ 75 B I saw for $400 looking pretty new in the factory case and a couple of mags.

 

[MountainBear]

I'm going to run over this morning and see what's what...

 

[MountainBear]

Decent show. Good amount of tables. Not too much of the beanie baby, beef jerky, jewelry, and taser crap. If I'd have gone with a pocket full of cash, I'd have probably bought something, so it's good that I didn't.
But no one had any of the slightly obscure parts I needed. So sad.

 

[Aero Denezol]

Bummed I couldn't make it after all.. Did anybody happen to notice any Winchester 94's? My daughter's car had a sudden CEL, $600 to fix. I took it as a sign of God telling me to hold on to my money for now. Still bummed..

 

[MountainBear]

Good amount of lever guns in general.

 

[2gr8dgs]

I got a good deal on a Mossberg 500 field gun. just what I was looking for!

 

[Greenbug]

Parted with my 27-2 for an ungodly sum of money.

Picked up a very nice Sako Forester in 308 and came home with a pocket full of cash to boot!
