    Gunshow coming up this weekend

    Our semi annual Gunshow is this weekend.
    Packing up stuff to sell.
    Hopefully I leave the show with less than when I went.

    There is one here in Jacksonville. I have to work this weekend though. Hopefully I can make it one of the days.

    I am tired.
    We had a good show for all that was going on around island.
    Aloha parade, Kids fun fair, football game, and a few other events.
    Still had a good time.
    Picked up a RCBS lube sizer, $40. Lee Challenger Breech lock press, almost new, $10, Lee Perfect powder measure, never used, $15.
    Was given two rifles, M95 Hungarian and a .22 Cricket rifle.
    Didn't sell as much as I had hoped, but I came out OK.

    Went to a small one Sunday. I bought 2 AR lowers for a 309blk and 6.5 Gendel im building. $65 each. Online were $30 but with shipping and transfer I saved $10 each and the guy was from a lgs not far away.
    I did have one guy try and sell me a new roof

    I make rifle and pistol frames to sell at the show. Normally sell them out. This time only 10 sold.
    One thin that might have slowed down my sales, on Sunday, is I had a squatter sitting in front of the frames.
    There was a pole with an outlet on it, and the squatter had her I pad plugged in.
    Didn't see her until after 12 noon.
    She got up at one point, so I moved the chair away.
    Next thing I know she was sitting on the floor.
    The squatter was gone at around 4.
    Told staff about her, but nothing was done.
    Pissed me off.

    Hi Abunaitoo. Yeah, I'm fairly familiar with the squatters. The Bliasdell center is on Ward which is between downtown and Waikiki. So kind of gets the overflow of homeless people from both places. Plus Thomas square Park is just up the street. Sometimes during the ebb and flow of police enforcement, they end up there to.

    Would love to make it to this show but my timing is never right. when I am around i'm just up the street from the Bliasdell at Ward/prospect st. which is just below the punch bowl. So its an easy 10 min walk down hill to the show. Most of the time the police have the park cleared of squatters ( its a very open park, no underbrush for cover) so I don't have to run gauntlet of people needing change.
