You're right ED, reloading equipment and supplies have decreased as well as parts.  And my Big pet peave, is if I arrive late on Sunday and half the dealers start weasling out and breaking down their displays 2-3 hours early!        I have a very good memory.  Next time I come and a purchase is between two dealers; I buy from the one that stuck around and supported my town.

One other thing that is getting old; the model helicopters flying around, electric cigar lighters, rubber band guns, jewelry - the whole carnival crap.

Amen!

I ante up the $8 once a year or if I have something very specific that I think I might have a high probability of finding.  Otherwise, I hit the gun stores or range on gun show weekend, since it helps draw the crowds away from these activities.

I do a lot of my shopping on Calguns. Great deals, good people and local drive.

Several of our local 'gun stores' are more hobby type businesses. Open three to four days a week and on the gun show 'circuit' weekends. When open their hours are like 12-6pm. Several were at the show yesterday, without them, it really would have been a pathetic turnout. Flying helicopters would have been of more interest.......I did mention I was disappointed?

Like your second point, just a complete waste of my time and $8.00 to get in. I won't be back......

Same conclusion I've come to.

+1 to that! I get real tired of all the trinkets and junk that have nothing to do with guns. I wonder who buys that stuff?

It seems the marketers, or marketeers? for that crap think their buyers will be the kids and wives and girlfriends of the gun guys.  But I rarely see anyone buying any of that junk.  They must be selling or they wouldn't keep coming back?
