Greetings all, has anyone been to one of these? I have an opportunity coming up to go to one of these, and I'd like to know what to expect. I really don't want to get hit up for donations etc., I just want to go and have a good time and mingle with like-minded people. I hear that they have auctions and prizes too... with pretty decent odds of winning something.
Thanks in advance for your answers,
Mongo
Never had the opportunity to attend one of these but it should be worthwhile . If you don't want to be hit up for money,best stay home. I have belonged for several years & get almost as many requests as I get credit card offers.
Today I recieved a "free " cap offer. Okay, a new cap with Winter approaching sounds good .
NOT ! A small contribution of at least $20.00 is necessary to get it. Ain't no way,Jose !
They do great work but I feel they "Cry wolf " too often .My real wish is that I'd have joined them in 1954 when carbines were $6 & M-1's were $8 or $10 . A friend bought 3 1911's for less than $100.
In your state several years ago I was in Rural King & tried to buy some 12 gauge shells & was asked for my ammo-purchase card [or similar document ].
" Say what? What did you ask for ? We don't have this in Florida. "
Had to show driver's license & made the purchase.
Ex & I were visiting her sister & husband , a retired police sgt. He said in your state if you're caught with a handgun [even a broken one ] it could be 1 year & $5,000 bucks .
Surprised they're meeting there.:confused
