Toledo here...been wanting to go to a gunshow sometime in Dayton...don't know my way around there though.

the bill goodman's gun and knife show isn't really anything like it used to be. the guns are mostly overpriced and the ones that are affordable are junk. Get some good deals on literature, ammo, and other things, but it's not really a place I'd go to buy a gun.

The OGCA show is a good one, but I haven't been to one since they moved to Columbus.

o yeah real close then....do you know of any good gun shops in the area that carry ARs? i know niekamps flea market had a couple about a year ago but i haven't checked in awhile i'm in college so i am kinda poor but i want to get one this summer

niekamp's has a bushmaster for 995. I think they're questionable on some of their stuff though. Some of their prices seem kinda high. I was looking at an AK there it was falling apart and the bolt wouldn't open very far. The stocks were all flopping over it. There's a shop in ansonia that had one and they were wanting like 1300 for it. If you don't mind the drive there's Olde English in Tipp City but they're still around the 1200 mark

genwinters · 02-25-2008, 11:01 PM

in southeast michigan, 25 minutes west of detroit and 45 north of the ohio-michigan border

squirrelbaster · 02-25-2008, 11:13 PM

in my opinion the P.R.O gun show is pritty good, ive found some fairly good deals there nothing sreamingly great but much better than my local shops, plues good ammo prices without haveing to pay for shipping. and just for fyi P.R.O = peoples rights organisation.

Yeah they can be, i have bought from them before though and had no trouble. A friend of mine bought a new 870 there, had trouble with it jamming and they let him have any gun on the shelf in the same price range. Not sure if thats how they always do it but they did that time....
