Nashville Gun Show (TN State Fairgrounds)

[Guest The Itis]

I'm potentially making the drive from Jackson to go to this one tomorrow.
Some reviews by folks who went today (Saturday) would be great, info like how many tables/stalls/booths they set up, if the prices were anything special, etc.

 

Thanks!

You'll be disappointed, wait for Murfreesboro or Hendersonville much better free parking better vendors

+1 on this, the MBoro and Hendersonville shows have been better then Nashville for the last few cycles...

 Forget Nashville....over now anyway, but not worth the drive or price to get in the door.

 Best shows in this area are Hendersonville, Aug. 24 & 25........Murfreesboro, Sep. 7 & 8.  $10 adm. free parking.

It was not terrible but nothing called out for me (though I am looking fairly hard). Saw a used p99 I would have bit on if the slide had been a different color. Also think the pk380 is on my "to buy" list if I can find one at the right price.

 

I'm really finding I have a block on buying from dealers right now. Between the taxes and de-facto registration, I'm not seeing the value proposition. Mind you, it seems like a lot of the used market is asking well above msrp.

The P99 is a great gun. Had one years ago, made the stupid mistake of trading it for a Glock. Have a PPQ now,

which I like even better, It's found a home. Prices used and new are just too high right now. With patience, you may still

sneak up on a deal.

I still haven't got it quite straight in my head what all the new designations for the P99 are. When I bought mine, there was only the DA/SA available. Then I heard something about a DA only version for cops who had itchy trigger fingers, now there's AS/S/QS/PPQ, whatnot. I just want the same as what I had. Actually, I'd prefer that one back, f*****g thieves!
