AMMO Swap Meet
What do you guys think of the idea, once Covid lets us, of having an AMMO and gun accessories swap meet, garage sale type thing. All things hunting related, just no guns, so we don't have to futz with permits. I know for myself I have a bunch of ammo for guns I no longer own, tons of spare gun cases, slings etc. The ammo is a pain to ship, so not worth trying to sell, and all the other small items aren't worth the work to mail them off.
I was thinking we could see if the new office of the Alberta Fish and Game has a room big enough and failing that look around for a free or next to free palce to set it up. Any thoughts on what the interest level might be.

I think that's a great idea.
But, if it was all non restricted guns, would you need any kind of permit?
Also, what about doing it outdoors, out of your trunk/on your tailgate? Maybe have it at a gunclub parking lot, and maybe that would make it easier to have guns?

I think its a great idea, I've got all sorts of extra bits and pieces I'd sell/trade. I like the informal setting concept, outdoors works, would probably allow it to happen much sooner.

This has been going on at many of the shoots I attend, there’s always a table or 6 set up with items for exchange.

Love the idea, there should be one held in each county. Out doors, park in the corner of a piece of accessible pasture or parkland and open the trunk. No overhead and no fees.

I would think that pretty much anything outdoor related would be of interest to those attending.
