Went today and it was surprisingly good. Larger than I remember it being; had three buildings plus the courtyard with vendors. Very few beef jerky vendors (but a woman did have several tables of Scentsy
 ).
Awash in ARs, ammo, reloading components, and mags. So many ARs I got sick of looking at them. . . Lots of powders from multiple sources. A good amount of non-black rifle stuff too (unlike the last few Winston and GSO shows I've been to). More old fashioned 30-30s than I've ever seen. Even found multiple ppl selling .22s. The dog trainers that set up in the back with the 4 black Belgian Malinois were also there. Didn't get their names but the dogs look awesome. |

Metrolina shows are usually better than the Park and Concord IME.

I'd love to have a 30-30 lever gun. I don't know why, they just interest me. I'll also be looking for a stripped lower |

Spent a few hours perusing the tables on Sunday. I was surprised at the amount of good deals to be had. Ammo was plentiful as was black rifle stuff. I went with a buddy who was looking for a nice pair of Mosin's for he and his son. Only a few to be found and they were beat to pieces.
Surprisingly, I didn't see much in the way of HK pistols. I have been looking for the VP9 and brought cash to purchase. Didn't find a single one. Also was looking for K31's. There wasn't a single one at the show either. |

Also according to web rumors, HK shut down VP9 production to make room for something else, so they're supposed to be scarce until sometime next year.
Disclaimer: I'm a HK addict. And the VP9 is awesome. |

I haven't been to a show since 2011, and I only went to my first one in 2007, so I don't have a huge reference, but I've only been to one show where I saw more than a handful of HKs in the building. Also according to web rumors, HK shut down VP9 production to make room for something else, so they're supposed to be scarce until sometime next year. Disclaimer: I'm a HK addict.

I'd be interested to know if prices went full retard this time or if prices have been stable. I didn't want to waste the time driving down from Winston if they are selling to panic buyers.

Some seemed to have raised prices on some things after it started. It was packed, lots of people buying stripped lowers, parts kits.
Quantico was a right popular vendor. I've gotta say they are great bunch of guys. They knocked off a few bucks for waiting patiently to pay after I told him it was not necessary. I would like to say thanks again guys. |

We haven't changed our prices (although we pulled our 5 for $50 PMAGs for a few days to see what would happen), but have definitely seen an uptick in buying. Not sure at prices at this show, but at last week's show we didn't see much of a change in pricing, just an increase in buying. |

Crazy ammo prices
Bought some P-Mags from QT. Asked the guy, "These fit the AICS right?" "Oh, sure" "great, give me four of them" Got home and they don't fit. Not even close. |

Ugghh! Please e-mail Chris Smithson. He'll get a call tag sent out to you and we'll send a refund when we receive them. On another note, our Spuhr mounts will fit your rifle. |

E-mail sent with link to this thread. Mike ETA, I can only use LaRue mounts though those look really nice. Don't ask. It has something to do with birds and dillos and OPSEC things.

I went to the show today. Pretty crowded. I didn't buy anything, my Dad bought a M&P shield.
We checked but Quantico didn't have any. |
