I'll be there.
Looked around during setup today and it looks like there will be a good variety of vendors with a little bit of everything.

Yep, we have two banners, the one visible from the entrance is "The Pink Rifle" and we'll have the Viking Armory banner up as well. We're about close to the center but a little closer to the back wall. If anybody has any doubts about Plum Crazy Lowers drop by and take a look at my full auto version  (Yes it's legal, I'm a class 2 manufacturer. No you can't buy it unless your law enforcement or military and it is an official purchase through your agency)

Honestly why would anyone buy a polymer lower when you can get a milspec lower for around the same price......you'd almost have to be "plum crazy" to do so...

Travis Hell just go to walmart and get 180g for $14 a box. You don't have to pay $9 to get into walmart. I bought 200 ct 175g SMKs and a couple pounds of Varget.

I'm becoming real dissatisfied with gun shows lately. The vendors seem to have drastically cut back on the gun trades; they are way more interested in selling. That's okay, I guess, but if all the show is about retailing and not trading, I'll start shopping Academy/Dicks/Cabelas/Bass Pro Shops more because they don't charge for entry or parking.

Here was a convo I had w/ a guy selling ammo at the show. He was a smaller man, and older as well.(incase you seen him) I saw some loaded ammo he had FS. ME :On these 168 HPBT you have here, what velocity are you getting from them? I have a 20 inch barrel, but just a rough number would do. Him: Oh right around 3000fps Me: 3k ??!!?? Him: Yeah, I don’t want them much hotter than that. Me :  Him I also have these 147g FMJs FS. Me: Most ranges do not allow this kind of ammo. Him: When the world ends that won’t matter. Me : Him: I also have some 77g and 62g that might work for you. Me At this point I make him an offer on the factory federal he has. We could not come to a number so I said thank you for his time and headed over to the table w/ the reloading supplies.

Me & my buddy said the exact same thing when we left. Luckily since were FF's we didn't have to pay the $18 to get in.

I don't do most of the gun shows anymore. Easier to buy what I need online and I don't have to endure enlightening conversations with Einsteins like dieselgeek had. I just don't have the patience for it anymore.
