I went to the Orlando gun show yesterday and met V-Tail and another friend of ours there.
Some guy actually asked V-Tail's friend if he had seen a booth where the guy could buy a concealed carry badge. He thought he needed one in case he had to use his weapon.
They walk among us.
Stay thirsty, my friends.

Later on, I saw a booth that actually had them. I had thought they were internet legend, but no, they exist.

I saw the Beef Jerky Booth; was it really that good?
I passed it by because it was beef jerky at a gun show. Did I make a mistake?

I broke with tradition and went to the gun show today as well. Probably walked right past ya'll. Wasn't too impressed with the show itself though.

First time I've been in several years. Don't shoot enough .38 / .357 to make it worth while reloading, so I picked up some light cowboy / target loads for my wife to use, getting used to the trigger on her .357 Ruger LCR.
I was really surprised to find a dealer who had a bit of Seecamp stuff at non-outrageous prices, so I grabbed a magazine.
Looking for ammunition for the Seecamp, I only saw one box of Winchester Silvertip .32 Auto, and that was sixty dollars. I passed on that.
I think I've had enough gun show for a few years.
