"once a year" shows. The Minnesota Weapons Collectors Association puts on a good show and works hard to prohibit the 'garage sale vendors'. Oddly, while they allow primers and live ammo, they do not allow powder sales. The other venue has been going steadily downhill for several years. They tend to be a 15 minute show, but only if one makes a couple of passes. The only redeeming value is it is an excuse to go to breakfast with Dad.

The 'once a year' fellows are usually pretty good as they are different vendors than the junk show guys. It gives a fellow a chance to see some new bits and you'll never know what will pop up.
