Just got back...ehhhhhhh so-so. This is the first show I have been to, Everything seemed pretty expensive. I saw 2 ar-15s which looked to be fairly priced. Other than that I didnt find any "great" deals.

Not much of anything really. Some interesting guns, and a decent bit of surplus rifles, but not terribly much variety.

I was there around 9-10am and didn't find much of anything to stop for. Couple places had decent ammo prices that were marked up about the same amount, as if I bought it myself, and paid shipping.

I bet that AK was built by #1bambam. Was it being sold by a guy with glasses who looked like he was probably in his 40's?

I might go tomorrow just to see that AK in person. It looks sweet!

I saw that one too. It also had SLAKERS engraved into the reciever. Plum furniture if I remember correctly. I took my time and brought my 12 yo nephew. If you looked closely there were some fair deals. One vendor had some nice AR's. Prices have definitely come down on AR's and AK's from this time last year.

EDIT - That's the one on the previous page.
