and bath powder and jewelry and beenie babies and candy and massage chair and designer knock off clothing show. Sheesh! Does anybody else remember the days when you went to a gun show, and they actually had guns? The only "gun show loophole" that exists is that you don't have "show" any guns. For ten dollars and no parking, I'd prefer to not have to walk half way thru the show to see a finely crafted boom-stick. Oh well, it wasn't all bad. The drinks were only $5.00.

I'm glad I missed this one! just stayed home catching up on honeydo's. Did they have the logs carved into little bears and benches and stuff? That was the best part of the last show I went to! At least they almost had something to do with the outdoors. But just another month and the good show will be here!

Yeah, they did have the wood craftsmen, and he does some really neat things. What is the date of the Wannenmacher show? I'm afraid I'll be out of the country when it is here.

The BIG show is the first weekend in April.........the show this weekend was, for the most part, a waste of time and money..........I did do the usual shopping at Arms & Ammo for reloading supplies.........
I use to make every show in Tulsa......now, I have cut back to 4 per year......but after this one.......I think I'll stay away from all but the two big shows.......

Poo. I will definitely miss the big show. I agree with Gonhuntin, the two big shows are the only ones worth going to. The grand national used to be a decent show, but it has definitely gone down hill, big time. It's a shame, too. With all the pressure in recent years to kill gun shows, I hate to see any of them become a waste of time. Grand national was always a nice change of pace from the massive Wannenmacher show, in that it was smaller, less crowded, and used to still have some good stuff. Any of ya'll who haven't ever been to the big show in Tulsa, it is HUGE. You definitely need walkin' shoes.
