Today's gun show wasn't a total bust for me today. This was my 3rd show in the last 4 weeks here in Nebraska. I go to these shows with high hopes of finding snake guns, but rarely see any. In fact, only 1 beat up 4" diamondback .38 for $1700:bang_wall: out of all the shows. At least today I walked out with 2 sets of Python stocks "not sure if the smooth ones are sanded down factory stocks or not" another set for my Ruger Mark II and a Colt soft case that looks like it's from the 80's? Overall, not a bad day.

I would bet you saw a lot of Eye Glass cleaner , black tupperwear guns , and fudge or girl scout cookies ? I never see any " Snake Guns " or any Colts in the Gun Shows in Michigan .

Nice pick up, you got to go to a gunshow and I spent the day helping my sister-in-law move. Lol. Next weekend we have a big gun show near me, maybe I'll find something nice too.

I went to one today, saw 3 Anacondas and the cheapest one was a 6" no box for $1700.. Ouch!
Also saw a person nab a shooter Python 4" blued for $1500. Other than that, pretty typical overpriced black gun frenzy!

For the most part I saw a lot of tupperwear, old beat up hunting rifles, used brass, $100 bricks of 22lr "even watched two buckets of bullets sell for $200:bang_wall:, and can't forget about the cheap knifes. There's a couple other guns I like to watch for but never find to include a 686-4 plus model 4", 617 pre-lock 4" and much more.

I attended a show in Mesa, Arizona today and picked up a pretty nice early 3rd Gen. SAA 7 1/2" Nickel in .357. It came in a later box with Paperwork from about 1997. Gotta' love the gun shows.
