The last gun show I went to, about 2 weeks ago, had Zero reloading components. There used to be at least one dealer, usually two.
Another one scheduled next month, if Covid doesn't shut it down.

I rarely ever buy a rifle, but when I do, it's a Henry.

I sure would like to find some small pistol primers for a decent price, but now days you can't even find them.
Fortunately I have a few hundred rounds of primed brass set aside as well as a few small pistol primers left.
I do have lots of shotgun, small rifle, large pistol, and large rifle primers on hand.
I tried to find a trade locally for any of these for small pistol primers, but no dice.
Guess I'll just have to sit back and wait like everyone else.
I also cannot find any .357 FMJ bullets of any kind.

In another post they show a gatlin gun. It’s $5,000. I wonder if they will trade for 5,000 primers? :lol:
