    You are correct Richard. I was holding back on his identifying info until I found out if that was who brutal was talking about.

    Quick side story. I did one gun show a year (in my home town) from 2010 - 2016, when they stopped having it. It was a decent small town show, $25 tables and my parents still live there. My dad enjoyed working the tables with me, and I got to see a lot of folks from my earlier years over the course of the shows. In 2010 (my first time "behind" the tables) Eldon and his wife set up at the same show. I had amassed a sizable cache of ammo prior to the show just before things really started to go south. Much to my surprise, about mid-day Saturday Eldon stopped by my single table and inquired about my set-up, inventory, pricing, etc. He ended up writing me a check for around $900 and put a nice dent in my table. A nice guy that was a pleasure to deal with, and I must say I do believe that that firmly convinced me that I wold go back the next year and do 2 tables.

    Kind of rambling on, but that's my gun show story as it relates to Eldon.
