Hey all,

So as a birthday gift to myself I was thinking about going to a gun show since I haven't been in over 4 yrs and just want to look and possible find a C&R or something else. Are they even worth going to anymore or is everything still outrageously priced and not worth it? Not looking for ammo but rather C&R's and possible an SVT40 (always wanted one if its the right price). What would be the better pick to go check out? And should I expect both to be outrageously overcrowded? I remember 5-6 yrs ago just walking into the Philadelphia Armory not waiting in line and leaving in 30minutes if nothing caught my eye.

Philadelphia Armory - 18th and 19th
Matamoras, PA (Best Western Inn) - 18th and 19th

I used to go to the Matamoras show with Wifey, walked the show, had the breakfast buffet and walked the show again.
Breakfast took longer than 2 trips through the show and prices seemed to be on the high side due to proximity to NJ.
