This shows hit-list: 2 AR15 stripped lowers, not Bushmaster. AR15 parts, M14 parts, .45 ACP barrel/bushing and honey. And if I can find, AR10 parts. I'll be the short fat guy in the Celtics football cap with a dazed and confused look on my mug. [pirate]
I'm just going for the jerky [pirate]
Beanies for me!
Mountain Man candy for me.
Or a Mech Tech.
Is it tanner or Crossroads?
I actaully need a few things I might be able to find there, IF I find the time to go....

I usually only see a couple of ammo dealers there, but are their prices that much better than a store like Sportman's Warehouse or the like? Where are the good ammo deals there (or is there a hidden room somewhere where only The Elite may enter...)?Quote:

SW actually has really good prices on ammo if you buy by the case.
1K of AE 223 55gr FMJ $256 out the door. :twisted: :twisted: :twisted:
I was just there. Picked up a few k worth. They dont have anymore so dont go looking today.
SW has 158 gr .38 swc for $6.79 per 50. I've been going there for all of my .38 ammo lately. Usually I find VERY good deals at the gun shows, though. Just look for the guy with the table that looks like he's clearing out his garage or something.
Sorry, ain't gonna pay $250+ for .223 and I'm not giving Sportsmans that kinda cash. There is a vendor in the back near where 5280 sets up shop that you can get their band, 1K for $165-ish .. 62grn if I remember right and I've shot about 3k of the stuff.
I was there this morning and it was pretty good. No real large ammo dealers and I have still not found anyone carrying a Para mag I have been trying to get. At least I finally broke down and joined the CSSO.
I passed a VERY heated discussion, something about some kind of people who seem to have 'excessive moisture' on their backs or something close to that. :cool:
Lots of beanies, jerky and jewelry if you are looking :roll:
Is this the same guy that never has any with him?Quote:

Scored ten 20rd boxes of Sellier&Bellot .223 55gr M193 FMJ for $4.50 each, guy had no cases and said he couldn't go lower. Felt ok about that when the only other guy with the same stuff was asking $6.50, and also didn't have cases. Edit: it's $4.99 at Natchez and I didn't have to pay shipping. :cool:
Other buys -
500rd can of .38spl 158gr TMJ for $70 (couple places w/ same deal). My first ammo can. [pirate]
NIB Ruger factory 20rd mag for the Mini-14 for $35. Seen 'em going for a lot more... probably shoulda bought two.
Buddy got a nice CRKT folder for $40 (lists ~$80), and a NIB factory mag for his Sig P228 from the same guy that had my Ruger mag, also $35 iirc.
Then I took the two Uncle Mike's holsters we'd bought for my wife's .380 back to Sportsman's (weren't what she wanted), and exchanged for two HKS speedloaders for my revolver, an HKS mag loader for her gun, and 50rds of .380. Difference was $0.03. :mrgreen:
Nope, that absolutely ain't me.. I haven't been to a club shoot since the weekends changed. On the other hand I've run through about 6k rounds of various calibers this summer... it's been a good summer :twisted:Quote:

I was asking about the vendor. Seems like when I used to go a couple of years ago there was one guy that had really good prices on ammo if you asked him about it, BUT he never had any with him and you always had to meet him at his storage locker in Lakewood or some crazy crap....
If anything is misspelled or doesnt make since ignore it, it is either my normal stupidity or the fact that I have had WAY to much to drink right now....
I might try to make it tomorrow morning. Depends on when I get done working out.
It's the weekend...who needs to make sense.. I'm chasing brandy tonite ("sailors say, 'Brandy, what a fine girl...") and sense is just not gonna happen. Ammo...I knew I needed something at the show. Landed an RRA lower, 2 HK M4 mags, small parts. I was looking for M14 parts, but didn't see any. Big crowd, not a bad show, missed out on the FN2000S from 5280. It was one of those, 'I'll come back on the next walk thru and get it'. Not a half hour later, it was gone. ..ah well...dang AR15s have my time for now. Y'aht'a'hee abini!
Picked up a holster.
Didn't have the gun.
Doesn't fit. :cry:
May try to take it back tomorrow, I'll have the gun.
Pair of grips that work great, and some candy from a girl trying to get enough money to go to DC, round out my day at the show.
I bought some cheapo reloading equipment. I saw some other things that I really wanted but I was short on cash. Maybe next show.
I saw the guy that snagged that FS2000 .. he was grinning ear to ear. I know Gina is trying to get a few more in stock. Give them a call and put your name on their list and she'll call you when they get it in.
