Default Melbourne Gun Show - Sat or Sun

Ride Sat to this show. If anybody wants to go, sound off.

Www.flgunshows.com

Will leave Boca around 8am and stop at the Shell just east of I95+PGA at 9am. Thinking about super-slabbing it to Ft. Pierce, then either US1 or A1A to Melbourne.

Show Hours: Saturday - 9 - 5pm, $5.00 admission
Melbourne Auditorium, 
625 E Hibiscus Blvd., Melbourne, FL 32901

Maybe stops at Malabar Mo's and Earl's on the way back. Will play it by ear.

I have been to this show and was not impressed. Seemed somewhat busy though as Obama is the #1 gun salesman in the country this year.

West Palm was standing room only this weekend.

Going to decide by Thursday noon. Killing two birds. Three birds if some FL Crew North/West members wanna meet and hang. Going for the ride as much as the show if I go. Dealer is going to have something for me there, or I can get it in Royal Palm on Monday if I don't go to Melbourne Sat or Sun. Let me know by Thurs AM, Meebo. Thinking Sat, but can be persuaded.

BTW, MB I found the 40mm "Pocket Pistol" rounds you were looking for. See attached pic. Caption: "R Lee Ermey loading ammo for the Bofors 40 mm gun aboard an Lockheed AC-130H "Spectre" Gunship in 2006"

Tank hunting, eh? Better to track 'em than call 'em out.

Go/NoGo - Sat/Sun decided by Thurs AM. What's better for you?
