O.T. Tulsa Gun Show, anyone Go?

Post by Lastmohecken »

I went today. I made it through the show without buying a gun, which is not that often for me, at that show. I did find a couple of Browning Steel Framed BLRs in 358Win, and I sorta wish I had bought one, but I passed, I got them down to $875.00 which I guess is about right for a 358 these days, based on the prices I have seen lately.

Other leveractions seemed really overpriced, in general. So in the end, I just purchased some reloading supplies and some factory reloaded ammo that seemed like a good deal.

I didn't get to make it, had to earn money. Bummer.

Yep,
Normally, I don't buy anything as prices vs. condition are out of line. This time I had to choose. I'd been looking for a Colt Delta Elite for some time, and was having trouble finding what I wanted....well there were 4 that we found, and one of them came home with me...still in the factory box. I passed on a really nice lo-wall Winchester in 32-20 with lots of finish, and a very nice TD Winchester 55. If I had saved my money for the last couple of minutes Saturday, I would have come home with a Hi-Wall some kid was carrying around in 40-60. Really honest rifle and well cared for...but alas...you can't buy them all..

Kansas Ed - what was the asking price of the 40-60 Hiwall? I bought one at the Las Vegas show for too much ! :oops:

I went Saturday. Actually came home with more money. :shock: :shock: I sold a hand gun and did not find anything I could not live without. At least anything I could afford.

It was either $2K or $2200 asking. But for that caliber and condition it was a very good buy.
