Sixshooters will have a gun show at the National Guard Armory in Lincolnton on August 8-9. This replaces the previously scheduled show at the Greensboro Armory, which has been cancelled.

I'm looking forward to this one. He is going to advertise as far away as Charlotte, since the Charlotte show that was originally scheduled for the same weekend was cancelled by the venue. Also, lets me sleep in my own bed every night. :)

Anyone else going?

Haven't been to one since this crap started. Not out of fear, just all got canceled. I was going to the hickory one on the Sunday after the start. It was canceled, as you know. Not sure if it's worthwhile, as I'm sure the prices will be through the roof.

Hopefully some decent vendors with some pistols at this one.
 
Show has been moved to the Lincolnton VFW at 1306 Country Club Rd, Lincolnton, NC 28092.
 
I just spent my fun money on another lever gun, 45 LC :):)
 
Glad you posted that. I'd have been wondering around


Bigger venue?


Donā€™t know exactly what happened, but my understanding is it was shut down at the armory at the order of the Governorā€™s office. Promoter had another venue contact in his back pocket.
 
Crowd this morning was huge. Line went down the hill to the road. It thinned out by early afternoon, but stayed steady until the end. People were buying less expensive self defense handguns, ammo, and magazines. Had a lot of people come in looking for bulk ammo, but were upset at the prices. When I asked them what they were expecting to pay for bulk, the answers were always pre-panic. One guy expected $10 a box 9mm.

Saw a few AKs sell, precious few ARs. Lots of people asking for AR uppers. Other guns that were there sold poorly.

So, but crowd, but not typical of buying habits we have seen in recent weeks.
 
At 10am it was elbow to butts. If the person in front stopped to look. So did everyone behind
 
Going to hate myself for asking, but anybody with Aero lowers at reasonable mark up?

I avoided today because I knew it would be an absolutely massive crowd in there. Ain't a damn soul in this county worried about Covid.

No Aero lowers. Just a couple Andersons that weren't horribly price, given the circumstances.

Sent you a PM. May be able to help you find an Aero lower or two.
 
Went today. Lots of guns and ammo. Pleasantly surprised.
Saw several folks I know. Picked up a mag and mag loader for good prices . $5 to get in and free parking. A good show for me and I'd definitely go again.
