The Valpo gunshow was as normal. Lots of old collectible rifles and some pistols..., lots of plastic and new guns available. Pricing for New firearms was 10-15% under MSRP.
There were no cases of old surplus import rifles for sale. Mosins were $230-300 (each), little old ammo for sale.
Powder and bullets in bulk were a bit pricey, new ammo the same. .22 LR is available, and the prices are coming down......bricks for $35-45.
Lots of lookers, not as many buyers as last year. No panic. Lots of Trump hats and such (go figure). People seemed to be waiting for prices to go down.

I think that's pretty much what's happening here...
Thanks for the update. I was afraid that might be the case. I don't buy a lot of modern guns, so I really miss being able to pick up a surplus gun at the shows. The last time I saw some at a gun show, the fellow was selling his collection of Japanese world war 2 rifles. He had some nice one's but he needed a copy of the Military Firearms Collectors Guide, because he had way overpriced them.
