Re: Nations Gun show
You'll see some used guns there. Most shotguns I've seen tend to be for clays, but I've seen some pumps. Price is hard to figure. You can get on Gunbroker or whatever and see what they are going for if you have a specific model in mind, or it's always good to have the Bluebook of Guns around to see the asking price is in the neighborhood.

Plenty, both dealers and private sellers. I'll probably have a few for sale myself.PulsatingBeaver wrote:The gun show is next week, do people sell used guns?

Re: Nations Gun show
You can also get a lot of guns "under the table" that is no red tape, no background checks, no fuss. All nice and illegal, my bro tells me there's more deals in the parking lot than the actual show.
Good place for ammo though!

Who decided to schedule the Chantilly show on the same weekend as the Dale City show?

Since I ain't from NoVa, I'll just have to show my ignorance and ask: When and where is this "Nation's Gun Show?

Re: Nations Gun show
Here in Virginia, it's known as a private sale between two VA residents. Oh, and it's completely legal.thekinetic wrote:You can also get a lot of guns "under the table" that is no red tape, no background checks, no fuss.

Re: Nations Gun show
georgia arms is a pretty nice to pickup ammo. I tend to avoid the nation's gunsow, they charge more to get in and the wait time for background checks are measured in hours not mintues like the richmond and fredericksburg gun shows.
Re: Nations Gun show
Completely legal, my friend, for a private transaction to take place in the Commonwealth of Virginia. No background checks or other B.S. needed!PulsatingBeaver wrote:Taggure wrote:thekinetic wrote:You can also get a lot of guns "under the table" that is no red tape, no background checks, no fuss.

Re: Nations Gun show
I bought some 9mm "NATO" from them at the last show. They have some pretty good pricing and I never had any problems. I might pick up some standard pressure stuff from them next weekend. Supposedly they stand behind their product, so if you have any issues you can contact them and they'll take care of you.graybeard321 wrote:georgia arms is a pretty nice to pickup ammo.
