I just got home from the SOS which is held in the same complex and I tried spending time in the gun show. I gave up after going thru about half of it as it was pure gridlock. You couldn't even see what was on the tables in many cases.
This is probably the poorest laid out gun show of any of the majors I attend each year. Several others were heard commenting that it was a major cluster-you-know-what. Looked to be some nice doubles but this is no way to shop for them.

Bought a nice G grade Lefever for $600.00. Must be 75 case, nice barrels and a stock that should clean up like new. Picked up a set of Fox Sterlingworth barrels for $125.00 to add to a project gun. Found two for ends, with metal, that I wanted.

Failed to make several deals on guns that I thought I wanted, but not at the asking price. Missed buying a decent early style Fox A grade, with a poorly repaired stock, for $500.00. It needed a new butt stock but was nice other than that minor fact. Saw too many over priced guns to shake a stick at. This is not a show for a fat man or a person who hates crowds. I left after seeing 3/4 of the tables. Enough is enough and I had my arms full. I am sure all the great deals were at tables I never got close to or even went by. So I left great deals for others.
