We had our Gunshow this weekend.
Lots of fun. Met a lots of good people.
Didn't sell as much as I wanted. But I didn't buy as much either.
Came out a little ahead.
Not much .22 and 9mm ammo around. What there was, was way over priced.
I was glad to see most of it still on those tables on Sunday afternoon.
I did pick up 5000 LR primers at a good price. Also found some books.
I did find something that might be of interest to some here.

Tired, but can't wait until the next one.

They sell something similar, but a little fancier at the gun shows here. it comes in at least 2 sizes and is actually pretty usefull.

I haven't seen one at a gunshow yet, looks like it could be handy.

I had a wire clamper when I first went on as an Plumbing apprentice close to 40 years ago, it worked but was a pain in the rear to set up and use.Robert

With a roll of bailing wire and a pair of nippers you can fix anything !

My auto shop teacher back in high school said it was bailing wire and pantyhose. He was a very interesting guy.

I thought it was duct tape and wd40?

Mechanic's wire is very useful and lineman's pliers or vise grips will let you get a lot done.

I wonder where your shop taecher was from? panty hose has been used here for years in a blow to keep the air cleaner from icing up. lol

I'm really not sure. His theory was that you could replace a belt with it in a pinch and bailing wire and urine would solve just about everything else. Like I said a very interesting guy.
