I have been looking for gun shows to go to in my area. Can you give any tips on where to find gun shows?

Walmarts in my area suck big time. Employees are bitter (for whatever reason, I think part of it is the fact that they are bitter they have to work instead of collecting a welfare check)and hateful towards customers. People need to start supporting their small town local businesses and give Walmart the finger.

It's not about where you buy your guns and supplies. It's about anyone of us being able to do so freely.

There was a time when any decent hardware store or sporting goods shop had a good selection of guns and ammo, and you didn't have to go to a specialty gun shop. My experience (over the last 30 years) with those has been mixed. Some have been great, some have been pretty bad.

If Wal-Mart is going to supplant those businesses, then they should offer the same service(I'm not anti-Wal-Mart, BTW).

But, maybe it was a business decision, solely based on sales. It's worth asking. If you do get them to restock, you should be ready to support them.

I personally buy most of my shotgun ammo (5-8 boxes a week) at Wal-Mart because it's price competitive with reloads, it's easy, and it's convenient (although my local club has great prices on RIO shells now, so who knows??).
