    Tom, the wife and I were there Saturday for a while. We got there too late (about quarter till nine) to get close to the Miwall booth without having to hassle with the crowd, and they were out of bulk .45 Colt by the time we got inside anyway. We did walk around looking for a while, but nothing really jumped out at me. Most guys had their "gun show prices" out, and since I worked the night before I wasn't in the mood to start bargaining at retail+. I saw one guy who had a "new" Marlin 336W ($347 at Walmart anywhere but here) he ONLY wanted $500 for. The same Winchester .44's and a .357 that were at the last couple shows (with the Big 5 $330 price tags on the boxes) for $750. I know they don't make them anymore, but I just don't think they'll be collectable in my lifetime. And $1750 for a used nickel Python without the box and papers seemed high, but maybe I'm just way out of touch with reality. Where was your table? I don't remember seeing a 10-8, that may have caught my interest. I did see a pencil barrel 10-5 with some bluing wear for $450. Again, too high for me to even start talking. Next time post where your table is or what's on it, and I'll stop by, if I go. This time was a waste of $18.

    No, did not attend the Fresno show, however I did stop into the newly opened Bass Pro natural history museum in Manteca the other day. I could do with 2 less full body buffalo mounts an 18 mountain goats climbing the rafters for some better prices on their guns.
