I have to vent somewhere, went to the LC gun show today, those gun vendors have lost their mind, be glad there is laws against gasoline price gouging, cause these guys have marked up guns at least 150 to 200 per cent,taking advantage of the possibilty of future gun law changes. There are no new gun laws or changes that justify the prices they are charging, in my book they are trying to capitalize on a bad situation for their personal gain and ripoff of the American Public. Thats what we need a law to prevent from happening, to make a long story short, I will buy online and use the $8.00 admission to pay for shipping, they can kiss my a$$, won't be going to another show any time soon.

Reason why I did not go............ you can buy the same guns online for half price or through an honest dealer

You might have to wait for an AR- type gun but the price is why better

I understand how you feel, but this is the free enterprise system and if these people buying them are willing to pay the ridiculous amounts being asked then that's on them . You heard the saying... A Fool and his
money will soon depart
