Marlin Centerfire Levers are still the best buy of the crowd. Many there in outstanding condition worth every penny.
Marlin Lever .22's early ones holding steady, maybe slight increases.
BB94's getting harder to find. Saw a couple of 307's and a few 375's. All were $750+ No .356's
Original low end '86's are down about $300-$400. Still in the $2K range though.
1885 Single Shots are holding steady to down a little...but clean examples really tough to find.
Model 1927 Thompsons are very unavailable at the shows...and prices up $400 or more when you do.
Only 1 1886 Browning rifle at the whole show and I missed it by 5 minutes

Shiloh Sharps rifles still at $2K+ for a basic model
I think I saw a total of 3 Uberti 1876's and all in 45-75, but the prices were $1000 to $1100 like new.
Hang onto your 71's boys...nothing I saw was less than $2600
FA 83's hard to find, and you need to be careful as several were Field Grade Guns with brushed finishes tagged as Premiers. (story on that if anyone is interested).
Lots of Ballards (???)
Lots of EBR's and MilSurp.
Strangely enough I didn't see many clean Enfields there??? But lots of Mosins and Springfields and Garands.
My favorite Jerky place didn't show...so I didn't eat lunch

Why does everyone bring so many shotguns??? They don't sell...
Had a nice long talk with Wayne Baker. Energetic and enjoyable as ever. Joked around a lot and rehashed old times. Miriam looking well.
Any questions welcome...but i didn't look at handguns much this time unless it was FA.
