Anyone know during the upcoming gun show that if they are going to have guns for sale?  Who knows, I may just walk away with a new toy... The wife will be away on the Big Island.... so she won't be here to tell me no lol... hehe

Bwahahaha. Even if my wife is away, she is still there in the back of my head.

The last show I went to (a year ago) they didn't have much, but that was during the hording period. My guess is that there will be a lot available. I hope I can make it.

I'll be there on Sunday, but only for a couple of hours. 

What time does it start? And how much is the admission ?

Starts at 10. $6.00 admission. This post has more info if you need.

Aww man I think I won't be able to make it.  I got drill.  I bet by the time I get done the show going be over.

I don't think I can make it either. Not 'cause I'm doing something, just no money to spend.

Hey, you REALLY should go!  It's not just guns for sale, after all.  Ammo, flashlights, slings, binoculars, models, airsoft, posters, parts, cleaning supplies, bags, ammo cans, chairs, lasers, bumper stickers, jewelry... the list goes on.  Plus, you can picks up business cards from gunsmiths, leatherworkers, even a medieval armor maker.  Just because your pockets are light doesn't mean you can't enjoy a couple of hours browsing!  Leave your permit, checkbook  and affidavit at home to reduce the temptation!

What time do they close on sat?

Did anybody go today? How was it?

Went today.  Was my 1st time.  My cousin and I had a great time.  My neck was getting stiff trying to look at all the prices.  Picked up a sling for $5 and a barely used Leatherman Blast for $40.  Also signed up at the HRA booth.  I forgot the name of the nice lady that helped me.  It was refreshing to see a woman into gun rights and so interactive with the other people who talked to her.  She was there from 12-2:30pm.   We had a great time meeting and talking to Ed Masaki.  What a character.  Didn't come home with any firearms. 

Thanks for the report Jaydawg. I couldn't get out at all.

Forgot to add.

There was a guy there selling Osprey scopes and bore sights.  He's the owner of the company.  He could have sold me the Brooklyn bridge if I listened long enough.  My cousin bought a bore sight for 3 different calibers for $50.  He has to wait for them to ship it though...the guy sold out of the more popular calibers.  My cousin almost bought a scope, but didn't have anything to put it on (yet).

I seem to remember reading something about Osprey scopes. IIRC they are made in china just like Barska, BSA, NcStar and suffer quality control problems as a result. Not that they are bad, just a problem with consistency.

Small Japanese local lady? If so, her name is Kerry and she is not only an NRA certified rifle, shotgun, and pistol instructor, but also the Chair of the Hawaii Citizen's Rights PAC (the HRA PAC) and the Secretary of LIFE. She routinely puts in hours and hours of volunteer work to promote and protect firearms rights in Hawaii. If we had 20 more like her, we'd have Vermont/Alaska "Constitutional concealed carry" and a lot fewer stupid laws here in Hawaii.....
