Never been to either, but if you're going in blind, best thing to do is research the gun/guns you wanna buy so you can tell if the deals are good or not. I went to last two guns shows in Charlotte. 1st one was way high. The one I went to in May wasnt too bad. Bullets are where they are getting you now. But, I was able to buy a case of .223 for $385. and I bought my Glock 22 ($640 @ local gun shop) OTD for $510.

Most gun shows have become just a place for Beef Jerky salesmen and various non firearm related old junk. Guns and Ammo far over priced at the ones I have been to the last few years. The sellers all assume people are going to come without knowing the market. And the buying market is not good. Not many bargains. Just like their are rarely any deals at Pawn Shops anymore. I don't know about those but ours have gone down hill completely.
