Regulars, give them a chance.
To put things in perspective, it's now 5 weeks until 'bunch' and there's been eleven respondents and two newbies for a total of 13. Last fall (2019) bunch at 5 weeks before the bunch had 12 respondents, so we're ahead if last year.
There are always family commitments that have to be scheduled before a bunch commitment can be made.

I put it in my phone calendar and will try to make it. For the past 18 months my wife and I have been away nearly every weekend to take care of her dad who is living alone semi-independently on his 60 acres in Guernsey county. I mainly go to do the yard work, but by October hopefully the need for mowing will slow down.

Went to FFF Bagley rd this afternoon. Not overcrowded. Employees wearing masks, not all customers were masked. Everybody looking for and buying ammo. There was about a dozen boxes of 9mm Blazer Brass 115 FMJ at $24 on the shelf, next time I walked by they were gone. No small pistol primers, no small rifle primers, no large pistol primers. 22lr ammo was bleak, just 50 cartridges per box was available and mostly off-brand or 'pricey' target/boutique ammo. Handgun display cases were evident with many open slots due to sales. Wasn't there to buy anything, just 'visiting'.
Talking to the employee outside at the door, they're going to be moving to the vacant K-mart next door.
Also, their truck comes in on Tuesdays and all the 'regulars' are there waiting for the Tuesday's doors to open to get the 'stuff' that comes in. Typically sold out by the end of the week, so many disappointed purchasers on Saturday and Sunday.

Tony, glad to have you return. Denny, thanks for the update. Lot of online bullets are gone also. Do you have more 9mm bullets to let go? Larry

Went back to FFF today, Sunday. Selling ammo out of the car, as I did Friday. They have no 380acp, 38special, & 357Magnum ammo.

They didn't know I was doing it ! I would go in and be observant of what customers were searching the shelves for AND be observant that no employees were nearby and then ask what they're searching for. I would show them my list with the prices and then meet them outside. I parked in a way that what was occurring could not be noticed/observed by FFF/employees.

Little 380acp pistols are a popular selling items, glocks too. Surprisingly 38sp and 357M revolvers are selling well. Unfortunely they have no 380acp, 38sp, & 357M ammo to sell to those purchasers that bought those.
A common remark from the employee that was handling the ammo shelves was telling the disappointed potential customers was to 'check at your local Walmart, they might have some'.

Yesterday's E-mail from 'sales @ FFF' '9mm is back' on-line only sales.
Browning 9mm 115gr FMJ box of 200 for $160, Federal 9mm 115gr FMJ box of 100 for $80. Either one equates to $40 per 50rds. FFF has been doing a good job of holding back prices for on-line and in-store sales for us NE Ohioans. When I was there last weekend, CCI Blazer 9mm 115gr FMJ was $24 for a box of 50 and was selling well. So, I'm assuming, they're taking whatever they can get from distributors to be able to supply customers with 'needed' ammo even though it's at a higher price point. Because of the current 9mm ammo 'crunch', it'll should still sell well.

Went today, Saturday, to Akron gun show. Was there from 11:30 to 2:00. Crowd was not at all what should've been for a Saturday, was more like a lighter Sunday crowd. Ammo sales was good, not surprising. Ammo prices were high, again not surprising. Gun sales didn't appear hectic. Got pistol magazines that was on my list.
Going back tomorrow, possibly a S&W bolt action rifle I found.

I’m sorry to say I probably won’t make it. I have “Army” that weekend and the weekend prior. If something changes, I’ll be there. Right now, “it ain’t lookin good for the home team”.

So, the last few years I’ve been there, I brought drinks. Last spring I missed it due to military obligations and another member stepped up to the plate.

Anybody else willing to do it this time? I think it’s a big help to Larry.

I’m sorry folks, I’ll be retired in 13 years or so 🙄, it’s right around the corner! Lol......

Bob

Medina gun show this weekend, so far none of the sites are indicating it as 'cancelled'. Not planning on going but that could change.
2 weeks until 'Bunch'.

With Larry, Roger, me, and ? who else, sounds like a 'pre-bunch' mini-bunch get together at Berea. 'dant' should be there with a table.

I'll be looking for 30-06 brass for the S&W bolt action rifle I recently acquired, I got bullets, primers, powder left over from when I used to shoot a Rem 700 30-06.
Also be taking ammo to sell from the car, mostly 22lr and some primers.
Got 2 Marlin levers in 35 Rem that I acquired as 'project' guns from about 10 years ago and since I never attacked them means I probably never will. They'll be put on a vendors' table so both he and I can profit.

Looks like we will have to wear masks, we’ll still have a good time. Inside the clubhouse they are required just Incase the club president stops in. Everyone will just sound muffled, Larry

I was expecting to have to wear them, I wear at grocery store, Home Depot, gas station, Petsmart, FFF, gun shows. Don't wear at home and in the car.

I will check with the president of NOSC to see if people walking around the inside of the club house is a problem. Right now it’s allowed with a mask. No different then the Medina gun show last weekend or Berea this weekend. People next to each other walking around with masks.

There is a question of food being shared also. Will try to get answers also on this. Whether we bring food or buy something delivered we are still in a way sharing it unless you bring your own.

There are 2 people I talked to on the phone that positively will not be there. Don’t really want to cancel it again, the virus will be here forever. Give me some ideas on this subject, Larry

There have been 4 respondents that 'not coming'. Busy, health concern, military duty, & out of state. Really doesn't seem any different compared to past 'bunches'.
Bringing food to share was always an additional 'benefit' but was not the primary reason for having a 'bunch'.
I'm still planning on coming as it appears others are also planning on it.

As much as I dislike a mask, I can step outside for a break. I plan on bringing a small display. I'll be looking for that elusive model 58, 520, or maybe a 1943 or 44 victory. I will bring the pop if you want but would like an idea on the amount. If 20 people show up we can shorten the day.

Default A few ideas

Just a few ideas as requested in post #88 above to make things safer:


Everyone bring their own food and drink...that way we all avoid the small kitchen area...


Move the tables and chairs outside if the weather cooperates...could keep tables spread far apart...be like a mini-flea market type setup...that would provide plenty of social distancing...I can bring a folding 6' table and a chair (maybe other attendees can also)...Since the virus is "surging" in Ohio according to today's newspaper I know I would feel much safer if we setup outside...


Thoughts on this anyone...

Still hoping to attend and following this thread closely. I will not be bringing a display this time, just don't have the strength.

Spoke to my father this morning, we will not be attending the Berea show this weekend. Two old farts with bad hearts, decided we should stay safe and stay home.

Best regards, Bob.

Attendance can vary widely as in post 93, thanks Denny. I don’t like the masks either but it’s a different goofy time driven by the media. If anyone doesn’t feel safe in the kitchen, bring what you want to eat but will find out what the club wants hopefully soon. Sorry Roger, we are not taking the tables outside, there is usually enough clean up inside after a meeting, not dragging tables in and out.

Yes Bill, if you want you can bring the pop. Let me know for sure. Just one 12 pack of coke or Pepsi, one diet of either and one case of water. The refrigerator is full of other flavors if wanted, just trade one of ours when you take one of the clubs pops from the refrigerator. Larry

Thanks Bill, someone erased some posts again from the thread. Forecast so far is in the 50’s and partly cloudy, Larry

Went to Berea show today, Saturday. Was there from 11-3, not as crowded parking lot as I was expecting for a Saturday. Mostly masks and some social distancing. Picked up a bag of new Winchester 30-06 brass, a pristine collectable box w/ammo of Super Vel 44Mag, and 4 S&W pistol magazines. Sold primers thru a table. Visited with tables I knew.Hot selling item was ammo, with 40S&W being especially sought after. With 9mm handguns in short supply, I guess buyers were acquiring 40S&W pistols just to be able to have something.
I stopped in at FFF on the way to the show, they had ZERO 22lr ammo, not even the import stuff.
Going back tomorrow.

A M13 caught my attention, but I resisted.

Was at Berea in the morning. Had to send a usps money order for a Savage Anschutz model 54 Sporter so I stopped at the Berea post office first. Got there about 9:30, good crowd. Seemed like a lot of money changed hands. Saw a CZ 527 full length stock in .223 plus it had a single set trigger. Never saw one in person so it’s in the safe. Happy camper right now. Forgot to go back for 2 boxes of 9mm 500 cast bullets for 25.00 a box. He said to make an offer, would have paid him what he wanted cause it was a good price already. Would have made good practice ammo, darn.

Talked to the president of NOSC and everything is as in the past. Pot luck, bring something to share. The club rents to members for graduation parties, anniversaries etc and they are pot luck also. If anyone is uncomfortable with sharing, bring a lunch box for yourself. Just wear a mask while inside, outside it doesn’t matter. Larry
