Florida Shooters Network

Noticed that there is a gun show in Orlando 7-10/11.
I have not been to one in a few years.
These days, would I find any powder?
A little bit of IMR 4227 would be great to find.
But I would not want to spent the $12 entry fee to wander halls of flea market stuff.

At the large shows there are 2 ammo vendors who always have powder. GARY

It's like paying $12 to go to the Apopka Shoot Straight store except you can't shoot that new Glock you just got. There will be excess product of all sorts and the prices will seem reasonable compared to 6 mos ago. Beats going to see Hollywood's latest at the matinee. Joe

Yeah, but can you get beef jerky and your jewelry cleaned at Shoot Straight? I think not...

While you can get beef jerky at the Orlando gun show, you can not get your jewelry cleaned there. If you want your jewelry cleaned, the WPB show offers that. They also offer corn bread, cleaning your glasses, shaving equipment, old money, antique watches, and many other things that have nothing to do with firearms. Hell, the local titty bar, “Double D’s” used to have a table at WPB until they went tits up. But you won’t find any of that crap at the Orlando show. GARY

Was thinking of hitting the Deland gun show and a couple others, I will let you know what I see in the powder department.

Haven't been to a gun show in at least 10 years. The B/S/T here is my gun show.

But, the powder idea gives me an idea. Does anyone have the websites of those vendors who have powder? If they aren't adding too much of a cost adjustment, I'd order some.

I've been to a few shows over the past few months. The small shows have had what I like; a healthy mix of collectible milsurp and some new stuff. They're just too small to be worth a drive plus admission. The big Shoot Straight show in Tampa was a mix of all the crap that made me stop going years ago.... high prices, limited selection, and douchebags.

I’m looking at IMR4227 at the WPB show. The vendor is from Palm Beach. 561-694-2340.

Thanks for the info.
