Bitter and I attended a gun show yesterday at the Philadelphia National Guard Armory off Southampton road in the northeast part of the city. Only a 400 table show, so I wasn’t expecting much, but I didn’t really find anything that caught my eye.
The only prize for the day, and since it’s been a while since I’ve been to a gun show, perhaps this isn’t much of a find, one table had Polish made Kalashnikov magazines that were pristine and unissued. I have several magazines for both AKs, but these don’t even have so much as a ding on them. I also picked up some targets and some jerky, but other than that, nothing really to catch my fancy. No good deals on ammo either.
Bitter, who is always on the look out for bad PR, found some at the show, and I think intends to blog about it later. I don’t quite have the eye she does, so I didn’t notice. I’ll let her tell the story, but say that I do think we need to be cognizant of the fact that the media loves to show up at gun shows to report on how crazy people are at gun shows, but I also think when they are out to get you, they will always find stuff.
Next weekend is one of the big shows in Harrisburg. Hopefully I can find some decent ammo deals there.
