ODT here in Georgia started having "gun shows" at the Cobb County civic Center, and they were well attended. Yesterday ODT had one at the Macon coliseum. Drove through the nightmarish traffic for 2 HOURS to get there. When we got there I said, where are all the cars?. Once inside I asked, where are the people? A few of my friends who set up at the ATL shows were there and I met some good people but the customer attendance was really low.
It was not a total BUST. I found, mostly buried in boxes, some very nice S&W stocks. One diamond center SB J frame magna. One J frame SB/RB targets. One RB J target (banana) in GA, with great grain. One J SB magna. All in beautiful condition.
My buddy traded a 30-30 Henry for a 45-70 Henry and bought a 24V in 223/20 gauge so it was not a total bust for him. I brought some fine S&W revolvers to walk around with and sold nothing.
After saying good by to the dozen or so people that were still there we hit the road (I-16/I-75) for a 2 hour+20 minute drive home that should have been 1+40. Typical ATL traffic.
ODT needs to do more advertising. The only thing they did was let people know through there web-site, theoutdoorstrader.com.
Pics of my new stocks later.
