Default Upcoming Side by Side Sanford: Trade and Sales?

Just a question to the group here. I haven't been to a southern side by side (Sanford. NC 2026) so am curious as to if there is trading and sales of personal SxS guns happening as part of the weekend?

Thank you for any thoughts.

You can find individuals with guns for sale. Just look for folks carrying a gun or gun case and ask if they are selling. There are people who go with that being their main reason for going. And some of the collector groups often have guns around for sale. Be proactive and talk to folks and you may uncover just what you are looking for.

And of course there will be something like 50 - 75 vendors in the tents with guns for sale.

Typically if I have something I wish to sell I make it known a couple weeks before on here and if someone expresses an intrest I’ll take it along . But my reason for being there isn’t to make sales , so I don’t usually take stuff just to be taking it .

All you need to know is where Robin Hollow , Josh , Allgood , August and Fuetrel are located plus the guy from Florida whose name evades me at the moment . There are others of course but those guys mentioned cover the spectrum quite well .

If anyone sees a long barreled midland hammer gun with 3" chambers serial number 111888 I am hunting it.

Are PGCA members permitted to display guns for sale in the PGCA booth?
