Made the Carp Gun / Sportsman Show Today

I hadn't really planned it, but on a last minute invite, I headed out this morning to attend the Carp Gun & Sportsman Show. After touring the four various buildings, I realized I should have brought a few old goodies that I had at home in order to make some trades or for barter. I didn't buy anything, but enjoyed seeing what was on display and for sale. I did see one crossbow with a pink camo stock and two shotguns with pink camo as well.....that was just plain wrong and sacreligeous in my opinion!

I was on the lookout as well for some guy that might have been wearing a GM ball cap from Arnprior that frequents this here website, but alas, he may have been there, but I either couldn't recognize him or our paths just didn't cross.

WHAT?! You were there too?! Dangit, you shoulda told me man. I had a Black/yellow Chevrolet jacket on with blue jeans and my Team Realtree hat and RT AP Oakley's on top. We were there from around 1:30 or so for a couple hours. It was pretty good, I was looking for a turkey gun and just didn't find the right one. There was a Mossberg 835 12ga 3 1/2" camo, brand new for $375. I'm not the biggest fan of the Mossbergs though.

We were there for 2 hours I'd say, then went to Happy Times for some grub. :eat:

Just saw the time you posted, after 2:00. You were probably gone before we got there. You're what, an hour away, maybe a little more?

I got there shortly after 9:00 a.m. and we were on the road by 12:00 noon. I'm just an hour away. Had I known I was going in advance, I'd have posted something so we might have been able to link up. But c'est la vie I guess.

I might try and go to the Perth gun show next weekend, but my fish & game club just asked me tonight to help out next weekend and volunteer to chainsaw some trails for their upcoming outdoor 3D shoot. No sure yet how schedules are going to work out.

I'll be taking some trinkets to swap and barter with next week though if I go. I've got 3 shotgun reloaders (12, 20 and .410) that I'm trying to deal and a few other toys, so that ought'a be fun.
