The wife and I got there around 8:15 and the line was starting to snake out into the parking lot. By the time they opened the doors, the line was pretty darn long, though it moved quick.
Spent about 4 hours total (including the wait in line) and a good chunk of change...
Some of the larger exhibitors were very busy and were backing up on the background/license checks.
Did anyone notice if Mike was there making the molded ear plugs?
I really thought there'd be some better deals on a S&W M&P15 Sport and ammo, guess i had my hopes a little high
Yeah, $699 seemed to be the best anyone could do. I'd sooner give my local guy a couple more bucks and keep my money local or try and find time to get up to FS and buy one at some point. $12 a box for 9mm was no great deal either.I was looking for a Sport too. Prices were not good. I talked to a few vendors and they all seemed set that they would sell at $700+/- so I didn't bother. I'll be picking one up on Tueday tho...
The usual guy was there and looked busy, not sure if his name is mike tho...
Went, it was alright. Nothing special
Cases of 7.62x54 for $185
Mosins for 125, was looking at one m44 for 240, when i put it down someone picked it up and bought it.
Walked in, no line at 245, lots of space inside, but still people smell like sh1t
Yes, and the white contact lenses and the barcode tattoo on the back of his head. He freaked my fiance out wicked bad.
Show was decent, pretty crowded near all the gun tables.
Got 800 rounds 2 tshirts and a bumper sticker.
Decent time overall
Can anyone tell me if primer sellers have 5k sleeves of Wolf 223 primers? If so what they are asking for them.
ByeBye....He's a nice guy, with a different dresscode. He shoots at Southborough, and I'm sure that he, and I. would be happy to have you bust some clays with us.
We're hosting the GOAL Cup in april (thread in the Shotgun Competition section)...come on out to the Top of the Hill!
bought 1100 rounds of M855 Green tip on stripper clips for about 480$, def some wierdos there (walking around AND behind the booths), my girlfriend asked why there were so many guys wearing military camo and blousing their boots....and I had no answer....why do guys have to dress up like G.I. Joe to go to these? lol
I also feel so bad when I see people at the booths were vendors are selling the cheapest no name brand Chinese knock off scopes/optics/lights and guys are sitting there listening to them and thinking they really do know what they are talking about
Any members see any clean Beretta tomcats? or knuckle dusters? perhaps some SW .357 mag revolvers? debating if i'll make the trip out west tomorrow.
Luckily for me i picked up the MP15 sport when they first dropped. =)
Happy hunting for those who definitely are goin!!
Well after weeks of toiling with the notion my 1903A4 sniper had an original A4 keystone military stock replacement someone modified the bolt notch cutout for some reason, I went on the hunt for an original unmessed with A4 stock. I found this very nice original A4 scant stock at a great price today, which would be correct for my early 1st block of A4's. Excellent condition, no rebuild marks, no cracks ect.
Fully cartouched and unsanded
Now I'm really happy with my A4 now
I went and regretted it within the first two minutes. The only plus for me was seeing Greg and Carmen's nice table across from Mister PMAG.
I'm still amazed at how rude and smelly people are
It is a 'show' after all
As for the crap being marked up, ya, centerpoint scopes you can get at wallyworld for nothing being marked up 10$ a pop or more...
Theres plenty of revolvers, was a couple 686's for fair price 550$ for a six inch I think it was, saw a 2 1/2 inch one in great condition but forget the price, other various models but wasnt really checking prices on them.
Apparently I should see an ear, nose & throat guy because I have no idea what you all are bitching about. Really? You all think that the people attending these shows smell bad? Either I'm just not paying attention or I apparently have a sniffer that's much less sensitive than normal.
My first few minutes there I didn't notice it and thought it was an NES myth, but after a while I noticed a few people whose hygene was sorely lacking. The fact that it felt like about 120 degrees in there probably didn't help their cause eitherApparently I should see an ear, nose & throat guy because I have no idea what you all are bitching about.
