Mar 2016

based on my observations from the Florida Gun & Knife show I attended last Sunday.

There was a line of folks at all four ticket windows waiting to pay to get it, the place was packed, wasn't exactly 50/50 male - female but close.

Several (more than 10) were selling purses designed for concealed carry.

Kids got in free and there were a bunch of kids there.

The handguns I was interested in are still going for way too much, need to wait for a pissed-off wife selling off her husbands guns.

Bottom line - 'Gun Nut' not a dying species
