Colo Spgs Gunshow - 5/6 Jan 2013

[TennVol]

Anyone planning on attending the Colo Spgs gunshow this weekend at the Freedom Financial Expo Center? I've got a couple of NIB AR's I'm looking to sell. I'm curious to see what kind of offers I'll get for them.

[zteknik]

I usualy like going,but not this time around since the frantic panic.
I'd rather ride on the F train during rush hour....

[Dave]

Didn't know there was one. Is it put on by the same people as the Douglas Co one two weeks ago?

What make/model AR's? Any idea what you're looking to get for them?

[WillysWagon]

I plan on going to see about selling some things.

[losttrail]

I'm going to try to go Saturday morning.

[wreave]

Hoping to pick up some ammo. Don't need much, but I'm not willing to pay excessive prices, so I may come home empty-handed.

[CareyH]

I will be there, I need some small stuff, but I am with wreave if its over priced they can keep it.

[CareyH]

already 200 people in line.

[wreave]

One of my colleagues was there and he said it was "pandemonium". Twice as many people as he'd ever seen at a gun show.

I asked him to let me know if he found any .223/5.56 for $0.50/round or less - no dice.

Idiots......

[TennVol]

Lots of AR's available - if you're willing to pay over $3K!

[WillysWagon]

Lots of people.

PMAG's $45 - $50 and only saw 1 dealer that had any.
AR's for $2k - $3k
Underfolder Yugo AK $1800
CZ52 $499
SKS $350

Saw some stuff I didn't think was too bad also.

How was Grizzly Mikes mag supply for AK etc.
Was he even there?
there is always the Sertoma show next weekend as well.

[WillysWagon]

Grizzly was there & the only one I saw that had PMAG's, didn't take notice if he had AK mags, will look if I go back tomorrow.

Might be why they're still available. Just seems to me if I had them marked up 300% and they're not moving, I'd be thinking about dropping the price a few hundred & not have all my $$$$ locked up in inventory. Gotta move 'em to make a profit.

Brian is set up in the back corner of the RK show.
He has a selection of magazines, to include 30 round steel AK magazines.
I have Romanian issue 75rd Ak drums with covers at my tables.
I am set up next to Wildfire Mercantile, easy to spot due to the crowd doing background checks at their tables!

is anyone going today I need beef jerkey and dip but I'm not going to stand in line forever

[WillysWagon]

Pretty empty today, no lines and lots of parking.

[wreave]

Pretty empty today, no lines and lots of parking.

Probably people have heard what a joke the prices are.

[losttrail]

Some serious price gougers. Learned a couple of places to avoid.
