Unintended consequences.:)
Smith said he had once been content to own a bolt-action rifle, a revolver and a pump shotgun but, like many gun owners fearing more government controls or outright bans on some guns, he went out and bought semi-automatic handguns, rifles and shotguns.

Meet the man with the ammo, the most popular person on the crowded armory floor
There were long lines to get into the imposing castle-like building on North Main Street Friday night, as only 400 people can be inside at one time to comply with fire regulations, and that limit was being met constantly, the show's director said.
Saturday afternoon, there was a steady stream of people of all ages filing into the armory, as one of the Izaak Walton League members used a hand counter at the door to make sure the occupancy limit wasn't exceeded. There wasn't a parking spot to be had along several blocks of Main Street and nearby parking lots were also packed.
Inside, it was a little difficult to move among the tables of long guns, handguns, accessories, knives and other outdoor equipment, both new and used, which were on display or sale. There was a constant buzz from the floor, as visitors talked with vendors and among themselves, while they looked over the thousands of guns and other items for sale.
