I rode over to Florence with gunman53. He's a good guy.
This show is a tad smaller than the Columbia Fairgrounds show but not by much.
One dealer had a huge box of $8 Pmags. Sweet.
Upstate Armory Group had a big box of Magpul stocks, handguards, and AFG's that they were selling on clearance: anything in the box was $20. Scored a NIB MOE SL mil-spec stock (FDE) just seconds before some vendor grabbed the whole box.
Price on stripped lowers had dropped another $10 from the Cola show last month. Andersons were seen for $50. Anodized 80%'ers were going for $75.
AR parts-components-tools were pretty plentiful. Unfortunately not one QD end plate in the whole show.
Many dealers were eating the sales tax to make sales. My purchases were all tax included. We were there for a bit over an hour and I spent $44.
No deals on ammo or reloading components. Saw a lb. of VV at Precison One's table for $40. Good grief. GA Arms appears to be selling fewer and fewer reloading items.
GUN SHOW BINGO
Squares marked for:
Stun gun sound: like 10 seconds in the door
Hilariously Overpriced Shit
Beef Jerky from Exotic/unknown animals
Any number of Fat Guy squares
Beanie Babies (actually jewelry)
Annoying Knife Sharpening Guy (along with Annoying Lens Cleaning Spray Woman)
Asian Guy Selling Cheap Optics
...But no crop-dusters. I didn't even crack one off.
