I'll probably still be at the Raleigh show this Saturday with some friends if anyone's going to be around.



I asked off for the 9th. I'm good to go. :wink: :D :twisted:

Isn't there a show in Charlotte or did I miss that already?

ToddGray and I were talking about driving up to Charlotte if there is one there. That is only a couple hours drive for us....

Real pain.

That sucks. The only reason I can get off is that I only work during the week, and not weekends.

So can we get a quick headcount? I've got myself, grand94jeep, and Remoboth so far. Anyone else want to weigh in?

I will definitely attend a get-together at the Feb 16-17 Charlotte gun show. Either day is fine with me. Let's pick a day, mark the calendar and start planning this shindig.

The January gun show meet-up has been cancelled due to lack of attendance. And if the February 16th & 17th one is too, then we'lll find another one in March or May. Look at the page I linked to and see if there are any other gun shows you're interested in.


I thought it was Feb. 9th and 10th in Greensboro?

Feb 9-10, in the Greensboro Coliseum. Should be easier for some of our Western NC posters to get to. Anyone down for planning another one then?



This is the one I'm talking about Remobooth. Thats the one I took off for.

I was talking about the Greensboro show, on the 9-10th of Feb. My idea was that we all meet up at the show on Feb 9 (Saturday).

Well, in that case I'm down for the Greensboro show on Feb 9-10, as well. Either day, but I also prefer Saturday.

O.k., o.k., I'm an idiot. :)

We are now discussing the February 9th and 10th gun show at the Greensboro Coliseum.

The plan is to meet at the gun show Saturday, February 9th in the cafeteria. A time for us to meet has not yet been specified.

I put in the paperwork for the 16th and 17th, but I should be able to redo it for the 9th and 10th, so, so far the list includes:

Yes

* grand94jeep
* Cymro
* Hatch

Maybe
-----
* Me [Pending Paperwork Fixing]
* Erik [Come on Erik! Pleaseeeeeeeee?]
* Skullgirl [Request off NOW. Seriously, right NOW.]
* XaqFixx
* jeepinbandtrider

I hope y'all check this thread frequently for updates, and hope even more that y'all continue to give us updates.

Hope to be see you all soon. :D

Have any of you guys ever gone scavening around the flea markets in Fayetteville? I've talked to a couple surplus dealers that hit the fleat markets on Friday and Saturday mornings and stumble across some crazy good deals. I'm planning on making a pilgrimage down there this spring.

There's a very slim chance I may make it to the gunshow in Charlotte on Feb. 16th but I'm not sure yet. My sister lives in Hickory so I make it down to NC a couple times a year. If anybody ever wants to meet me at the Coyote grill in Conover I'll buy the first pitcher. :D

I'm really familiar with the Fayetteville pawnshop/surplus/flea market scene. You can get some really great deals, but you have to dig through a lot of crap. It helps to get to know the vendor.

Let's keep the headcount going. Who's coming on Feb 9th to Greensboro?
