Sounds as if they have gone downhill quite a bit since the last one I attended 10 years ago.
Yes they definitely have! It’s been probably about 8 years for me back when my $hit talking compadre Steve Campbel was still with us! Haha
JBP55, It’s just lost that magic...
I agree and I miss visiting Steve at his part time job after he retired from LSP.
I haven't been to a gun show in 5 yrs or more . They were pretty lame back then as well . Not like the Centroplex back in the 80's .

I say there should be virtual gun shows. Why not? Most seem to just want to *show* their overpriced guns and gray goods anyway. It’s been that way for many years. I did get some good pickled eggs and spaghetti sauce from one a few years back.
The Centroplex and the one at the Bellemont Hotel on Airline Hwy. both had great shows back then.
I went and brought my wife so she could experience her first gun show. She asked if it was always that BAD. Haha
Worst show I’ve ever been to at Lamar. It wasn’t just the chaos and feeding frenzy, but the majority of what was displayed and selling were AR’s.
The line wrapped 3/4 around the building, but wasn’t too bad of a wait. Maybe 30 minutes. These are kinda like going to the movies...by the time you get inside and get something to drink and a snack, you’ve spent $30!
Likely will be my last one for a while...
