Arms & Defense Show (Nov. 2006)

* I used to go a lot into these gun shows, almost every year, up until about the last 2 years. I just got a bit tired of seeing the same stuff over & over again, I guess. Never got to buy a lot of stuff, since I'm not a regular shooter, anyway. But I was glad I went this year.

* The booth that I enjoyed the most, was the SHOOTER'S booth, wherein they were showing their indiginous made firearms. I loved that Ingram copy they have, & were it not for the relatively high cost of maintaining 2 firearms, I would've loved to buy that. It was cute, & great-looking. And affordable. I suspect its likely to be Open Bolt, though, so am not sure about its accuracy, meaning not sure if it will be enjoyable to fire on the range.

* Another winner for me on that Shooter's booth, was the "rifle-ized" pump action shotgun. Magazine-fed, w/ a front grip for the pump, great looking, & again at an affordable price. A bit too heavy, though. Had a hard time lugging it around, w/ an EMPTY magazine. If they can lower that gun's weight a bit, I'll be taking a long, hard look at it.
