I visited the Lansing-area gun show, held in Mason, yesterday. Anybody here old enough to remember when gun shows actually had GUNS? As I walked around, I saw (imitation) animal skulls, skins, cheap knives, "key chains" that might be classified as a cheap imitation of a brass knuckle, cookies, candy, cheese, some type of energy drink, Christmas decorations, books, two booths that were selling smart phone-based target systems, lots of AR mags and parts, and maybe 1/3 of the floor was taken up by vendors that were actually selling firearms. Not a great selection, and (as we've noted in the past), prices were on the high side. I also remember the days when several of the visitors to the show had guns they wanted to sell, but only one or two yesterday. I was somewhat surprised to see more ladies than usual out shopping for guns - that might be a sign.
In spite of all this, I did enjoy getting out of the house on a snowy Saturday, and walk around.
