Gun Show @ Hendersonville This Weekend Mar 24 & 25

For those that went to the show, were there many ARs available? How was pricing? I'm looking for something basic - probably S&W M&P15 Sport.

Plenty of AR's, but didn't pay much attention to prices.

My Son and I just got back. To me it wasn't that great. My Son did get some killer Beef Jerky though.

I didn't go back today, but maybe some vendors decided to leave early? Or did it just suck?

When I went yesterday, it seemed to be on par with any other show in the mid-state area; nothing to brag about.

I didn't suck and yes there were a lot of empty spots here and there on the left side.

Yeah, there were a few empty tables on the far-left isle. I just assumed no one wanted to be next to Voldemort. :wink:

I went. I was disappointed that there was only one SKS in the whole building, a Norinco for $289. It was out of my price range sadly.

I bought a Mossberg 500 shotty. Was in the Specialty Arms fire so I got a great deal. I'll redo the blueing like I did on my CZ-82 pistols

Did you go yesterday or today? I was there yesterday when the doors opened, and I saw several. They must have been sold or those vendors were no longer there when you arrived.

I was over near the beef jerky folks. I bought a bag of the teriyaki. It was good. If you're a small vendor and have only one table they stick you off in the corner or the far side of the floor. Maybe it doesn't matter because eventually most folks make their way around the floor, but I wish they would spread it out. All the big exhibits are concentrated near the entrance.

This was my second show as a vendor and I don't think it was as good as the Memphis show last month, which was smaller. Maybe it was just because of the smaller venue, but Memphis was packed, and I've heard that the April 14 show is sold out, at least for big exhibits. I should be able to get my one table again. But this Hendersonville show was pretty dead, I thought. I did have a number of people come by interested in setting up a trust, but it was so quiet, so much downtime. I left at 1:00 today. I've heard the Knoxville show is good and I am going to try to make one of those this year.

Today. The one there was in the distant left corner by the back doors. Took 5 minutes for me to look at it, and another ten to put it back down due to the dude buying a .50cal renting the floor space right in front of it while he tried to put the rifle into a case that was 8" too short.
