Howdy everyone,
New here but have been checking out the site awhile now. Is anyone goin to the gun show in Richmond this coming weekend? If anyone has been there before, is it bigger than the ones at the convention center and the coliseum down here? Seemed like there wasn't very much at the convention center last weekend.
Thanks,
HOAGIEXJ

I have never been. Like you I am hoping its a good show. I am planning on being there early Saturday morning. I have a long list of things I did not get for Xmas that I am looking for.

I usually go to the Nations Gun Show in Chantilly. Its a very large 3 day show with a ton of vendors. I am hoping Richmond is the same.

The one at the show place is good. The one they have at the raceway complex leaves alot to be desired unless your'e into beanie babies, jerky and junk.

cool thanks for the reply's fellas. I'll probably take the trip up from Chesapeake. Just looking for a cheap .22 for squirrels or possibly a .17 HMR. The only one at the convention center last weekend was a lever action .17 and was not a very good price.

Dustin, a buddy and myself are leaving the frigid north tomorrow (Saturday) around 7:00 am in hopes of getting to the show by 9:30. If you go this early let me know and we can say Hey. :wave:

Or anyone else for that matter.
