gun show at Chilhowee

[Mike.357]

Anyone going to the gun show in Chilhowee Dec, 28, 29, 30 ?

I am thinking about going on the 30th. Maybe the 29th if I do not have to haul liquor that day.

[Guest Jamesmb]

I'll probably be there.

[Guest 2HOW]

Im gonna try to go, sell my AR maybe.

[Guest Jamesmb]

Been thinking of bringing my S & W model 19 and cf380 and see what I can get for them or trade for them.

[wareagle]

I'm going to go. I need to sell my glock36 and pickup a taurus 1911.

[Guest SUNTZU]

My brother is getting married on the 29th but I intend to go either a.m 29th or 30th.

[Guest BG38357]

Probably going Friday afternoon.

[doughnut]

I have to go to Franklin for a wedding on 29th, I may stop by on my way back to the Tri-Cities on the 30th.

[Guest Shep]

Too far for me, any coming up in the middle of the state?

[Guest Jamesmb]

Dumb question here, but how do you sell a gun or trade at the gunshow? The police check the gun in then you go to a dealer and try to sell?

[Guest dotsun]

Just walk around with your piece, you'll get stopped every few feet by people wanting to buy it.

[Guest Boomhower]

Just walk around with your piece, you'll get stopped every few feet by people wanting to buy it.

Correction.....Usually wanting to know what cha got and how much you askin. Then they usually shake their head, turn to walk away, and say something about the price because they think they should be able to buy your AR-15 for $100. At least that's always been my "listening" experience. I've never tired to sell anything at a gun show.

Some people will even make out a banner with all the information on it and affix it to a wooden dowel that insert in the barrell of your gun. Then you just walk around and let everybody read for themselves.

[Guest SUNTZU]

Or they tape it to the back and front of their shirt. It helps if you can read and write so that OTHER people can read about what your selling/trading.

[wareagle]

I just tape an index card that lists item and price (specify cash or you get offers for $500 in beef jerky:yuck:). Beware fake $$. I've been offered some $20 and $100s that looked a little funky.

[Guest SUNTZU]

take a counterfeit money pen, you can get them at staples, office max, office depot. Fake money has been a problem before.

Me too if I don't have to DRINK liquor that day. Well, at least until maybe later.

[J Smith]

I am going tomorrow.Might try to trade my Sig 232.

Anyone else going Friday?

[J Smith]

I just got back.

This show sucked!

I did not see even one decent deal on a gun.I did get a good deal on a benchmade 31,I was late to that table as some other guys I know got some great deals on some CRKs and customs from him.Everything else was high as a cats back.Maybe it will be better tomorrow but I am not going back.

[Guest Aksess]

I guess I will go tomorrow. I have a Bushmaster carbon pistol upper and a ak22 I would like to trade off. Were the girls there that have ar parts?

[J Smith]

I did not notice who was working the table but there was a table full of AR parts.

[Guest Aksess]

Good deal thank you for the heads up. The last show there no one had and ar parts. I need to score a new lower.

[Guest Engloid]

I just got back.

What is admission up to now?

[Guest Aksess]

$10 per person

[Guest Engloid]

I think I'll stay home and save the $10.

I wish they didn't charge the sellers AND the buyers to get in.

I guess it's like tv...they charge advertisers, then charge us to get the channels.

[Guest Scottech]

Corey and I went on Firday just when it opened. Only about a 3/4 of the tables were setup. I picked up 200 rounds of .223 and a nice TAPCO T6 stock for my Mini-14.
