Hampton, VA. Gun Show... anyone attend?

[digi-shots]

Well, if you got there just as the doors were opening.. somewhere around 9 AM, maybe a bit after, you would have heard a loud BOOM ! It almost sounded like someone slammed a table down on the floor.

Yep, one of the dealers (reloading supply guy) must have had his finger on the trigger of his GLOCK... gee, I thought they had a "safe" trigger...

Luckily, no one was hurt but the dealer was escorted out of the facility by the local police, and they roped off and covered his tables.

I don't know if they ever found the bullet or not... it hit the aisle in front of him and went across the aisle and into one of another dealer's boxes. They looked for it awhile, but not sure if they ever found it.

About an hour or so later, the dealer or one of his guys, was back, packing up his stuff.

It happened about 30 feet away from a couple of good friends of mine that were set up.

I went, but did not get into the line until 9:30 or so, and had not heard about it. I saw the reloader's table that they had roped off and covered and did not know what was going on with it, but that must have been where it happened.
What I could not figure out was that a load of folks were leaving as I was still in the line outside the door, and they had bags full of reloading powder. some folks must have not spent 15 minutes inside. By the time I got in, not one can of powder to be found.
I did not see much else of interest either. Most of the same folks with the same guns, priced a little too high. One interesting item was the Dark Sun "going out of business" sale. They will have a big hole to fill, I found a couple of nice older guns at good prices from them the last few years.
