Went to the Porter County gunshow this AM; it’s one of the better shows in the area and we try to hit it each year.
Saw a few nice things, including a guy walking around with a perfect condition LeFever Nitro Special in 410. Case colors all good, no reblue, 95% or better blue on the barrels, perfect bore. Wanted $1200 I don’t have. But it was a beautiful shotgun nonetheless.
Lots of ammo. Prices going way down on black guns. No 30 carbine anywhere, but that’s getting cheaper elsewhere, so.
On the way back we did the normal gunshow run, and caught a guy dropping off a Colt AR-15 SP1, in mostly original condition. Partner is in the mood for one of these, and the price may be right, so they’re going to call him if someone inside the shop doesn’t want it. They may. We spoke to the original owner, who took care of it.
Me, I think I’d rather have a gun with an assist, but partner is into collecting, so this is a natural for him.
me, I was looking hard at the cheap lowers, and now I’m seeing complete firearms for under six hundred, so maybe I should look more at the full firearms.
