 I was there Saturday morning around 10 o'clock or so, met Walter Mabry and bought 3 real nice scrimshaw quality horns from him,(took all the money I had on me). He was the only vendor there that had anything worth while . Its getting so it ain't worth the drive anymore. Also only Red and White colored Fort Mims shirts? they were about the ugliest T-shirts EVER. I also think if you didn't have to drive through the "Red-neck trailer park, AKA, fish camp" they would have a better show and more repeat customers. Its only a about 55 miles away from me and they will be lucky if I go next year, it was a sad place. There was nobody selling any blackpowder stuff like, locks, triggers, Triggerguards, flints, caps, jags, ball pullers etc. Also no tomahawks, or knives.
