Anyone from Louisville to Paducah able to buy a stupid large amount of surplus items , everything thing from WWII to today?

Don't really want to put the lot on the EE but half way tempted to.

So much stuff that has duplicates.

Can you send me a message w/ details and what you need out of it? I might be able to get a few of my buddies to go together and buy what you have.

There is a military swap meet held usually in September at the conference center in Shepherdsville. And October 16-17 at the Bullitt Co Fair Grounds.

There is an Army Surplus store in Louisville that is having a hard time finding gear. Most of the store is filled with Rothco Adams Ordnance off Champions Trace across the street from the old Ray's gun range.

Going through some of that today. Most of those are being actively used in pending displays.

Thanks for the quick replies, I killed my business startup when dad got sick with cancer(thread somewhere about that) but I'm going to peel off to the local stores to help them out, get my business going and then try to meet up at the swap meet. I've been there before a few times
