I tried going today. Got as far as thinking about it and decided against it and just stayed home.

I was getting ready to go to the gun show today and saw the show is competing with the dope show in the adjoining area of the merchandise mart. Tanner will have to wait until the next show for my money now. Guns and dopers don't mix.
Thought I found a real nice deal on a CZ 1911A1, but the rear sight was moving around in the dovetail if you breathed on it wrong. Another Tanner come and gone with very little of interest.
Went for a ride on the motorcycle instead today, now going to get my 3 yr old grandson for the rest of the day-beats going to Tanner lol
I thought is was rather busy considering the politcal climate.
TANNER was a very busy show!
I could barely move away from our tables.
There were a lot of customers who came over from the INDO Expo,,many of them were open carrying handguns.
That is a CASH business and so the owners have many concerns about security.
I was fortunate to find a great deal on a Russian re-work Luger (BYF 42) all major parts match.
It was stuck in with some used regular modern pistols and so I ALMOST missed it!

My Wife and I were set up at the TANNER show this past weekend.
OK day on Saturday, Sunday was not good, overall attendance looked lower.
I saw some good buys on all sorts of stuff!
I made a great purchase of a Model 103 High Standard Sport King in excellent condition, it was even clean!
Those old HS pistols have such nice triggers.
Its a definite keeper, I owned a HS Dura-matic back during High School and this is nicer than that gun.
A friend bought an original COLT AR15 scope for $200, and I saw one of the later compact EO-Tech scopes sell for that same price.

I went Saturday and Sunday.
It was crazy crowded on Saturday and I'm getting over some surgery so I wasn't feeling good and left before making it through everything.
Decided to go back Sunday and finish browsing but couldn't find any good deals.
As usual, I went with cash and went home without spending anything.
