May pop in if down that way. Seem to find much better deals, also friends on here. I just like digging thru the "junk" boxes. Scored an old school 3 position carbine stock and tube for $15 last time I got to go. If anybody sees a cetame wood stock and foregrip grab em or OD green. (C308) Like the hk 91.

I agree - I like digging through the junk boxes/tables. Never know what you might find!

Report!
I came and I conquered all in all I saw a good bit of deals being made. Pretty much the same dance as always. On the negative I found two boxes of 22lr rat shot their asking price was $30.00 a box for what I know I can get for $14.00 locally. Same federal ammo. There was also a Winchester mod 42 on the same table that I saw it on over a year ago,the price then was $1800.00 now he has the exact gun for $4000.00. Yea right. Anyway still had a good time meeting people and chewing the fat with others I know. Really like doing business with the guy in the wheelchair that sells Fenix flashlights.

I was painting doors and other homebuilding stuff. Maybe tomm.Dang, now I feel better about mowing the lawn today and not going.
Have to concur with @Fathertime it's pretty much the same as the last couple times I went. Didn't see any decent ammo deals, some way over priced AR15's and not a lot of decent optics.
Still nice to talk with some of the guys there!

Didn’t see any decent deals on anything, really. But then again my tastes are not the norm these days, so I go for the entertainment as much as anything else. Didn’t even find any reloading components that were priced right. But yes, same cast of table characters as usual. Maybe next show will be different…..might even figure out who some of you misfits are!
I’m tall and dumb looking just don’t mistake me for Rebel_Rider1969 lol. One vendor has impressed me the last several shows and that is Sabertooth , he seems to always have the latest and the coolest at the show.

Sabertooh is a member here. Average prices, sometimes less than the internet. I just play dumb, really a double-aught spy.

Well, I was shopping for powder and primers and still thought the prices were stout. I try to look online beforehand. Some of those table vendors - I get it. Caveat emptor!

Haven’t seen that guy since before the Chinaflu fiasco.

The few tables that had primers that I saw marked their limited supplies different amounts…large pistol I saw were $130, LR primers were $180. I about fell over!
Saw no small rifle primers. Powder was anywhere from $35-$55 a pound. Hodgon was more that Accurate, etc. Obviously (to me) price gouging what was in demand. Still crazy.
