 gday mates,

 well im up and runnin after bein punished for goin over my download limit. I went to the  Antique Firearms Fair last weekend, its on every 3 months or so up sydney. I just gotta say, that im SAD to see the show dwindling like it has for the last few shows, alot of stall holders and exibitors that ive become mates with and dealt with in militaria have been pulling the pin on the show over the last year.they say theres not enough turn outs and sales to justify them traveling from interstate to attend. Are the ANTI EVERYTHING'S getting the best of us? is the interest in military firearms(and modern firearms) dying in front of us? is it the end of an era? or am i just whinning? i dont know.. but its upseting.

It seems to be a trend at the moment Al ! I think high fuel prices & the hike in insurance liability are a major factor in the decline in many of these shows ! I think there will always be a hard core group of collectors though
