Myrtle Beach Gun Show Feb 18-19

I'm planning to go either Saturday or probably Sunday. Traveling with my wife and daughter and SIL.

Hmm, how will I recognize anyone?
 
How many tables do thy usually have at this show?

I'm guessing 500-600. Just a guess, though. It is a goodly sized gun show, bigger than a lot of others, but not as big as something like the Dixie show in Raleigh, NC.
 
I’ll be there set up usually right inside the front door. Probably be wearing a Battery Oaks Hat. MYB is my favorite SC show. Great crowds and last show money was flowing. Also the best French fries in SC. Rumor has it there will be some cheap ammo. I won’t have any, but I’ve heard A couple of dealers will be dumping some overstock. Our group will have a good many S&W’s and Colts this time

I will see you Saturday morning
 
This event is only about 35 mins from me. I would love to go Saturday but the kids have basketball tournaments. I will most likely go down Sunday and hope all the good deals aren't gone
 
Just left about 30 min ago. Busy day with close to 5000 in attendance. Not many guns were brought in for sale which seems to be the trend these days. Good news the French fries were good as usual. Downside to some is the AR market is dead. We are set up right at the front door and I didn’t see an AR leave the building. Back at it at 10 tomorrow morning. Come join us.
 
Why this trend?
My guess is a lot of people bought during the “shortage” and paid through the nose and are opting to keep versus taking a loss. I also think another reason is with the internet people see “asking” prices on GB and think what they have should bring those numbers until they ask every dealer in the show and no one offers anything close. I was offered 5-6 S&W’s today and the seller’s bottom dollar was so far above what I would consider retail that I only made an offer on one. When my best offer would be hundreds less than asking price it’s just easier to say I’m not interested instead of hearing how I’m a crook and spending time to explain why my offer was actually fair based on what guns are actually selling for. Another reason might be people are scared to sell because they have Heard and read so much bullshit that they are scared they won’t be able to buy another gun later. I also hear at least once at every show is how if they sell a gun, how can it be “unregistered” to them. Those are just guesses but it’s amazing the stuff I hear at shows.
