Roanoke Gun Show - Mar 17-18

Anybody going?

Frank

Yep, I'll be the bald guy with the suppressors.

Sadly, no. Drill weekend.

I think I am...

Good show. I haven't attended a show with my dad in quite awhile, and he ended up winning the door prize (and buying a new lower with it).
Picked up a pmag plevel for $15, and found some of the new CCI Quiet at a very good price.

Canoeguy-thanks for the demo of the Tirant-9. I had a feeling you were an arfcommer.

I went this morning. It was pretty good compared to others I've been to. I spent more money than I should have but I did get some stuff that I had been wanting.

Went and grabbed 2 Pmags Saturday afternoon for $25.

I ended up going Saturday morning. I thought the prices were a bit higher than normal, but I'm not minute-to-minute price watcher either. Picked up a new Eotech and a couple of CAT Tourniquets (more money then the wifey cared to know about...ha!). Got to see some folks I haven't seen in a while and got to meet Canoeguy. Super nice guy!

Good meeting some other ARFcommers.

I thought the show was well attended but sales for most of the vendors were light. Ammo is going up from what I saw. Gun prices were still normal from actual dealers. The CZ dealers was there again, they are nice folks and I love CZs their prices are good too.

I talked to a guy who is going to suppress a 45-70 lever gun. How awesome is that.

I was excited to see a Keltec KSG shotgun in the wild. Handled well and looked to be a bit better finished than their norm. I think it was Blacksun that had that for $1000 which I wouldn't pay but that is supply and demand. And yes they did sell it on sunday.

The funniest thing I saw was a used Smith M&P15 at a guys table. Just a standard AR...$1200. Of course he might just be a few months early on that price.

As to this...let's not spread any vicious rumors, it only lets folks down when they find out the truth.

I do want to apologize to any of you guys if I ignored you or brushed you off when you asked if my guns were for sale on Sunday. I had a dozen offers in the first 5 minutes walking in. I wanted to take them to Canoeguy and look for a few parts. I was not trying to be a jerk, just did not have time to chat.

Canoeguy, thanks again for taking the time to help educate the masses on suppressors. You do a great job.

I'm not one to spread rumors, but I have to agree with Foxtrot9. Regardless of what he says, Canoeguy is great to chat with and I was glad I finally stopped by to talk to him. Thanks again for taking the time talking about the Sparrow and TiRant.
