Here in the Tulsa area there is a small gun show just about every month, and the Wanenmacher show (world's largest when not shut down by COVID) twice a year. Some years I have gone to every show available but scored only at the huge Wanenmacher shows.

Then again I found great deals at the small show this past December, and again today. Point is, if I hadn't gone I would never have known. Ya pays yer money and ya takes your chances.
