Mrs. Oldgringo and I drove 50 miles up to Tyler for the G & S Gun Show today. What a waste of time and money! There were few new guns to be ogled and virtually no ammo or reloading components or holsters, etc.. For example, there was a Chas. Daly AR for $1,550 and what little else we saw was some 10% or better higher that normal. Did I mention that admission went up a dollar from previous shows?

I'm glad i did not waist my time

Thanks for the report. I could not go but wanted to. Glad I did not.

Ditto thanks here, too. The Tyler show has been decent, but I've never thought it came anywhere close to the quality of the shows in Dallas and Mesquite.

This show was by another producer and it was definitely lacking when compared to the High Caliber shows that normally come to Tyler. I think there is another High Caliber show at the Harvey in mid-December?

My mistake; I didn't know that anybody but High Caliber ever did a show in Tyler.

For me, it's worth it to drive the 1.5 hours to Mesquite for the Big Town gun show. It's easily 4 times as big as Tyler with far more variety and better deals. Just my experience.

Today's show was by G & S. $1increase could be offset by printing an online coupon. Printed coupons last week and then got sick so couldn't drive over. Sounds like it would have been a waste of time and money. Think High Caliber will be at Harvey Hall on December 13-14. Guess I won't buy a .45 to keep the XD9sc company until at least then.
