Toys that shoot

Crow, i always intend to take plenty of pics but i end up slipping around in my own drool and forget about it. I'm not sure how big this building is this year as its the first show at this location. My brother and i tried to get a table a month and a half ago but they were all gone so hopefully it will be a full house.
i did the same at Columbus last year But left things in the car and carried two items around kept going back out to get more But i always had bought something to leave in the car .
 
Years back me and my buddy each got us:
1: A airsoft revolver.
2: A proper western holster.
3: Safety goggles.
4: A Stetson hat.

And then we squared off.

Only to find out that pulling a gun fast and hitting something even if it is human sized and not that far away,,,, well it look so easy on the silver screen.

Still good fun with toys that shoot.
 
OK. Met beerthief and Chuck-in-Ohio nearly as soon as I walked in.
Was great to meet the both of them.
:)
I didn't buy anything there but I did bring home an Evanix RainStorm .22

Oh. And I was no where near longest Pony Tail on the head.
BUT! I bet I won longest part of Pony Tail on a key ring!!!

Great to meet and talk to you finally after several years!

I came home with 2 HW55S rifles. Went there for a HW55 and or a HW77, and doubled down on 55s.

Kevin Hull had a spread of very nice rifles for sale.
David Slade had a pile of very nice rifles for sale.
Everybody had piles of nice rifles for sale.........

You won the contest on style points man.
 
I've decided to try to hit the road by 5:30 with an extra mug of coffee which should get me there around 9:30. I'm really looking forward to this as I have never been to an airgun show . I'm hoping to find a nice HW97 in 0.22 cal. and whatever else just begs me to take it home.
I made it and had a great time! This was the first airgun show I have ever attended and I thought it was fantastic, I felt like a kid in a candy store. I didn't find an HW 97 but I did get a C9 series Sheridan and 2 RAW HM 1000X rifles. I couldn't decide on the 0.22 caliber or the 0.25 caliber so I got both!!:LOL::LOL:
 
This was in all probability the last " toys that shoot" show. I just found out a few days prior that Dan Lerma, the gentleman that put these shows on has passed away from his battle with cancer. Dan was not only a great friend he loved airguns, and was regarded as a fair trader to do business with !! Dans loss will be felt thru out the airgun community...may he rest in peace...

Chuck, i was right behind you talking i believe when you picked up the 55. I snagged a crosman/anschutz 6500 on the table right next to Mikes. It got busy there for a bit. I can't believe i had any $ left over.
Ahhhhh, you are the one...........

I went back for that Crosman on my 2nd lap and just like that, poof, it was gone!

I was bent on tracking down a 2nd HW55 that I was tipped to and figured that MAYBE no one would recognize that Crosman for what it was....... silly me 😆

Good score on that rifle man. You kept @beerthief and I busy for 5 minutes or so trying to remember which table that rifle was on.
Was it you that I finally asked if you had seen an Anschutz 335 on someone's table? It would have been right in front of where you bought it?
