Anyone going to the North Carolina Airgun Trade Show 2019

Last year I scored a 22 cal RWS Diana 54 Airking for $300. There's always good deals at this show. I will be driving up on Friday, Oct 18th.

The North Carolina Airgun Show will be held at the Hickory American Legion October 18-19. The Legion is located 1 American Legion Avenue, Newton NC 28658. There will be door prizes, food, and shooting range. Electricity available at at each table. Very nice roomy exhibit hall great lighting heating and air conditioning
 
I will be there, as I have for every show. I have 2 tables reserved and will have some really sweet deals. Come by my tables and bring lots of money! This is a great opportunity to put your hands on different air guns and shoot them. Even if you don't find anything to buy or trade for, we all love to talk airguns! I hope to see lots of my friends from previous shows. PS..........the weather looks great both days.

Hope Tony won’t mind my offering this opinion! Generally it’s similar to other gun shows - more stuff to see early, better bargains late in the game.

The crowd has a different flavor each day. Friday is primarily fellow vendors (yes we buy each other's stuff LOL) and other collectors. Saturday adds more local folks.

Friday is my favorite for sure, just a great atmosphere and a lot to see. If you come Saturday, arrive early - many vendors drive a long way home so start packing up around lunchtime.
 
Seems like Friday has the most people attend. As far as selection, if you go early, you might have a better shot at picking up something that will sell before you get there on Saturday. That being said, I can’t go until Saturday, and there will still be plenty to see and I’ll still be excited see the stuff and talk to the guys that are around. One guy last year pointed out several guys here by their online names, which was pretty cool.
 
it was my first airgun show! I went in with a couple of people and got kicked out within 5 minutes lol, seems they were not open yet, and venders were still going around buying up all the goodies and didnt like the compatition lol. it was all good i got back in at opening and met a few people from this forum and had a great time! got alot of insight and info that i was after, saw alot of great guns, didnt find a part i was looking for but its all good. in general i had a great time and enjoyed talking and meeting everyone
