Greenville Pickens Fairgrounds Gun Show

[84CJ]

Anyone going to the gunshow at The Greenville Pickens Fairgrounds. A few guys I work with ask I never heard of one there no plans to go as of yet. Just wondering who is putting on this show and if it would be worth the trip? Or maybe it would be a better range day.

84CJ-----The location has been changed !! I called Fred asking for a table, he said the local sherriff was giving him trouble. It will now be at the Upstate fairgrounds in the building ( next to the Greenville-Pickens Speedway. Way close to my home, I got 2 tables.

 

[Rikkn]

By the way, where in upstate are you ? Are you going to Ashville this weekend ?

It is still on, I will be there. Where in upstate are you bigcat ?

 

[bigcatonhd]

I live in Pickens...work the entire upstate selling heavy equipment. Are you going to have a booth?

 

[Rikkn]

Yes I ordered 2 tables, I thought I would take a chance on it, see how it goes.

 

[bigcatonhd]

It's been years since I went to a show but the wife and I are going...probably on Saturday. Will you have any signage or any way for me to identify you?

Rikkn, I live in spartanburg. Been a while since my last show. I may come just to meet up with some good folks. I miss that more than anything. You should put a S&W forum members sign in roster at your table.

 

[bigcatonhd]

Good idea there CJ. BTW...I've got a couple of good customers in Spartanburg...I'm over that way every week.

I have put up a sign like that before, met some nice members that way. I will make one for this show. See you guys there.

 

[84CJ]

Bigcat what kind of work do you do?

 

[bigcatonhd]

Yea bigcat I have you covered on the spartanburg end plenty of room for a dozer and trackhoe.

 

[bigcatonhd]

well nobody's buying so you never know....
actually most of my sales recently have been to "gentlemen farmers". Sold a used dozer in Abbeville last week to a male nurse who has about 300 acres he's clearing himself. The contractors are all hurting.

Not sure if I did this link right or not. Or if I am even in the right place.lol This is the speedway. The fairgrounds are close by.

In a nut shell I-85 south to Hwy 153 turn right toward Easly 153 to 123 right toward Greenville it is not far from there I have never been there so some one please correct me if Im wrong.

 

[bigcatonhd]

I-77 to I-85 south to SC exit 40 (hwy 153)
Right off the ramp through 5 traffic lights
Exit right off 153 onto Hwy 123 toward Greenville
Approx 1.5 miles on left
Look for "Hot Spot" convenience store and the track/ fairgrounds are next door

CJ...what time are you goin' over?
