944s2 Posted August 10, 2008 Report Share Posted August 10, 2008 picked up 2 30 AR mags, 2 Glock 17 mags and 50 rounds of .223 How much do the 30rd mags and .223 cost now.... I remember when a shitty case of wolf was only $100, I should just sell my gun I never shoot it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turbo Teg Posted August 10, 2008 Report Share Posted August 10, 2008 I really don't see a need to go to gunshows to look for most stuff. There are occasional finds, but everything is usually way over priced. I see stuff selling used for what I sell for new at Vances. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Akula Posted August 11, 2008 Report Share Posted August 11, 2008 A friend of mine just picked up a 50 BMG. I asked why and he said "because when Obama gets into office it won't be legal and will be worth a good deal more than I paid for it." What do you think, visionary?

I asked why and he said "because when Obama gets into office it won't be legal and will be worth a good deal more than I paid for it." What do you think, visionary? That's an investment. I wasn't too impressed with the show, but I did pick up a bit of ammo. I should've picked 1911 mags up, but I prefer the Chip McCormick 8rnd power mags.

LJ Posted August 11, 2008 Report Share Posted August 11, 2008 . I wasn't too impressed with the show, but I did pick up a bit of ammo. Me: nice vest, how much? Vendor: Man, that right there man, that is the REAL THING, not that chinese made crap, the REAL THING, $160 Me: umm, the guy 3 booths over has the same one minus the belt for $49, same brand and everything Vendor: See right there man, they got ya man, that is the chinese shit man, you want the real stuff.. Me: ok, how about I buy this belt off of you for $10 and go get the vest over there for $49 Vendor: I'm not selling to you man, you don't want to buy American man... This really happened Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scotty2Hotty Posted August 11, 2008 Report Share Posted August 11, 2008 ^^^ I don't doubt it. You see some interesting things there at the gun show. I will say the only thing I saw I really liked, was a Springfield M1A(M14) with a synthetic stock for $1150 new. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LJ Posted August 11, 2008 Report Share Posted August 11, 2008 yeah they were all over us about american made stuff there....... Meh, I was just more annoyed with the guys who had actual U.S. Milsurp and thought they had something special and marked it up by 500% Or the guy selling the Polymer AR-15 mags with a sign on the container that said "brand new Canadian Milsurp" Convo went like this Me: Any problem with them getting too hot and melting? Vendor: When the Canadians made them they used an inferior plastic and had some melting problems Me: *looks at sign on box* *looks at vendor* ummmm.... Vendor: But these ummm... they umm, they are a different plastic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
