Went to the York PA show today.  From a DW perspective it was dismal, there was only one DW there, a brown cased 15-2 with scope mounts, wrong belt buckel and wrong patch, a metal barrel tool, no papers, blue crushed velvet liner that should have had an Elvis painting on it and about 10 speed loaders hiding the other BAs, all of which were V style.  Wanted $1100 and it has most certainly been fired.  I saw this same pack about a month ago, apparently its not selling.  Other than that, the only DW item I saw as a beautiful set of small frame walnut grips in a bin with a bunch of Colt and Ruger stuff.  I got them for $10, no screw.

If you wanted Colt snake guns, there was a nice SS King Cobra, a SS Anaconda and an SS police speical (I think thats what they called it). They weren't giving them away though, cheapest one the Police Special was around $890, the snakes were $1200 up to $1800.  Lots of Glocks and Smiffs, and ARs and the usual ancient corroding ammo in bags and boxes. 

Overall it wasn't really worth my gas and time. 

Anything worth doing is worth doing well.

Thanks for the report, I sure am glad I didn't bag work to go!

Sure it was, you got out of the house and got to see lots of guns.

Sounds like a win win to me wink
