[AustinBR]

I haven't been to one for probably ten years or so. My dad and one of my buddies are coming with me. It should at least be entertaining.

My response from other post on how it was:

Not too many people there. They had an abundance of overpriced cheap crap. There were a bunch of reasonably priced pistols, but most of them could probably be talked down a bit. I was surprised by how many guns had lasers on them. I don't really care for lasers, but it seems like every other gun had one...am I missing something? Other than that, there was a lot of overpriced ammo. I did see ten .50 cal rounds for 40, 50, and 60 bucks from different shops. Other than all of that, there were lots of super hairy old men walking around that kinda creeped me out.

Oh. Overpriced scopes. They had those too. Lots of really overpriced scopes. Actually, the only decently priced items there were knives and smaller pistols.

I went ... Agree mostly the same BS as every other show. Did pick up two stripped lower DTI lowers for 99$ piece from Blades & Barrels booth ... Reasonable priced.
