Several hundred table show...NOT a glock or AR in sight.

Vegas Antique Arms Show....Several hundred tables, FULL of old Winchesters, Colt SAA's, Sharps, etc, etc. An amazing array of high end, Collector arms.

I did not see a single AR or Glock. LOL.

You did say it was an "antique arms show", right?

The firearms itch I cant scratch?
Vintage Winchesters.
Colt SAAs.
Lots of old Winchesters here in the Yoop. I went into the gas station in Seney and there was a rack fill of vintage lever guns.

My thing is old classic double barrel shotguns, usually LC Smith doubles. Rarely see them at the shows here.

Any double rifles? I always thought a double rifle would be a blast to shoot. Don't think I could handle the recoil anymore.

Case-hardening and nicely-figured wood are a welcome change from matte black and plastic.

This is why I continually avoid going to the Tulsa OK show every year. I’m afraid I’d go nuts with the antique selection.

A gun show is still a gun show....I thought it was refreshing to NOT see any plastics. Didn't know this was being graded.

I'm almost only into firearms as tools skewing towards the "Tactical" variety...but I too think it would be very cool and refreshing to go to an antique arms show with nary a Glock or AR in sight.

High capacity lever action rifles and pistols firing sealed, primed cartridges were the assault weapons of their day. Just keeping it in perspective

Everyone realizes that the first AR-15s are now C&R eligible?

Yeah, isn't that wild? Something that is concerned "advanced and high tech", just gos to show you how far ahead Eugene Stoner was with the AR 10 and redesign AR 15!

I would have drooled.

I'm expanding my collection of black & tactical, plastic & practical until the arms locker - my toolbox - is filled out.

After that, it's all blued and hardwood for the display case in the study.
