Packwood swap meet comng up!

[rdb241]

Memorial day weekend. The entire city of Packwood turns into a swap meet. I have seen LOTS of guns up there and No paperwork. I have seen everything from revolvers to a Stag Arms AR-15. Even a Cetme. I bought a Yugo SKS last year. Reloading stuff, taxidermy stuff, hunting stuff. Loads of tools, antiques,and your usual collector BS. Prices may vary. I start at one end of town and go down one side of the street and then come back in the other side. Last year it took about 8 hours to see it all. Get there early on Saturday!

I haven't seen many up there :huh:.... but I will be up there anyways for the weekend. If you can, Friday is a better day to get there as that is when most sellers are first setting up, and then if you can, come back the next day too!

Thanx for the info...I have had good luck getting up there early on Saturday! Last year on the same weekend there was guite a few firearms of all sorts. Plus related stuff. I don't get off of work until 1:30pm and leaving from Puyallup there would not be enough time to see everything. If you are up there on Friday...save me some good stuff

I'm still a poor newb when it comes to firearms. I will be arriving Thursday to set up with pretty empty pockets "Loads of tools, antiques,and your usual collector BS" is mine and my parents specialty, mostly the BS

Just FYI, while the numbers of vendors he mentions is correct, the pics are just of his lot only. There are vendors stretched out along at least a mile of highway thru Packwood, and at least 5 good sized lots full of vendors. His lot is one of the larger ones and on the east end of the event.
