St. Louis International Cartridge Show. Made the trip yesterday. A 12 hour day including the 9 hours of driving. Got rid of some stuff and picked up a couple of things. I guessed this was my 6th trip to the event. Might be 7th. Anyway, the selection of all things cartridge/ammo was amazing, as usual. Sadly, the big stuff assortment has waned a bit over the years. I recall the massive displays of the past and noted there were none this year. Just the 200 or so tables full of mostly SAA. Of which there has never been a shortage. The Dutch crew had their usual vast assortment of things I like. And a couple of smaller set ups with some mid sized rounds and officially banned, and unofficially allowed, 'nades and such. Being of the past, I found the prices too high on the bulk of it. That sentiment comes with age, I suppose. It was great to see and commune with the usual suspects roaming the tables and adding to their collections. Of note was a Bombatorium t-shirt. A. As in one. On the proprietor of same. Asked about acquisition options. Apparently, one must visit this faraway land to become a proud owner. Looks like a 730 mile/12 hour one way trip. For a t-shirt. A decision to ponder. But I NEED that t-shirt, so, we'll see. (I'm a L, btw)
