I'm going for ammo mostly. Maybe some fancy schmancy gizmos for my new 870. I'll be wearing the multicam ball cap carrying the multicam Eagle pack with my plunder. If you see me, say hi.
|
|
Will do. I can't plan far enough ahead to know what I will wear. Maybe I will streak through the place, make everyone sick, and make off with all the goods. I guess I can wear a desert camo camelback pack. I am going for some ammo also. Maybe do a little trading. I will hollar if I see you.

I alomost forgot, is this one at Metrolina or the Merchandise Mart? C&E's website says February's show and March's show are both at Metrolina. I'm pretty sure there was supposed to be a show at each place?
|
|
KICK ME IN THE JIMMY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! |

|
Ahhh, good ole Beavis and Butthead. Those were the days... |
|||
|
Is that Independence or Statesville?
I will be there, I will be selling or trading, and buying too. |
|
Any details on the show?
I might like to check the Charlotte show out Thanks! |
|
Metrolina Expo is off of Exit 16 on I-77. WHether you need to get off on 16a or 16b depends on which direction you're coming from. The only other details I can think of is that it costs $6 to get in, you can print a dollar off coupon on C&E's site, it's free to park, and it is an awesome show. |
|
|
Location, maps, directions, schedule info for other shows -- all you have to do is Google for the C&E website:
www.cegunshows.com/charlotte.htm |
|
I'm going to try to be there as soon as it opens. I'll be looking for AK parts and ammo.
I'm gonna dress in all camo so nobody can see me |
|
I have 12 hours of off duty work on sat....may try to spend all the $$$ I make on sunday!!
|
|
Mall Ninja? |
|
|
I'll be chasing the wily grouse over the hills and dales (hills, mostly, steep ones too :) of Avery County this weekend.
|
|
Maybe we could use a signal to help identify each other?
I'm thinking an arm extended over our heads, with the second digit pointing upwards? |
|
I will be there saturday around 10:00
How about everyone meeting up around 11:30 - 12:00 at the bar outside. |
|
That's as good a place as any. |
|
|
Well I won't be there until about 2:00. But maybe I will se yall anyway.
|
|

Hope to be there Sat AM. Gotta get some ammo. I'll stop by the bar for a beer before leaving. Might have to do a little work.
|

How about a Glock 21 the has never went KB on me? |
|
|
|
I might try to go Sunday.Gotta work tomorrow.
Somebody check and see if there is South African .308 and let me know what they are asking for it. Also if you see any FAL receivers...IMBEL or DSA. Thanks. GLOCK-23 |
|
Can you add washing my car to that list |
|
|
Sure why not. I can sqeeze it in between builing the kids swingset and installing the new garage door opener, or maybe after I get the new garbage disposal installed. Gotta love moving into a new/old house. |
||
|
I love having a house, I lived in a 550 sqft apt and moved into a 1700 sqft house, now I am running out of room in here |
|||
|
This is the second house we have bought. The first one was 4 years old this one is 33. The garage door opener was original to the house and crapped out the day we closed. Oh well. No biggie I was going to replace it anyway. I actually do love having a house also. We did the apartment thing for about 2 years.

It was a pretty cool show. There was a ton of people. Not a whole lot of 7.62x39 but there was a decent supply of 5.56 and a little 5.45. I got a RIA .45. It's pretty sweet. I'll test it tommorrow. I've got to give some QT to the wife since I spent all day out. You know the drill. Mainly, because of that stinkin' traffic on I-85. I had to detour through town and go up 49. It took a long time to get home. It sucked up an extra 2 hours from traffic delays there and back.
|
|
I sat on I85 at exit 79 from 11pm friday night till 3 pm saturday afternoon counting these $$$$ at the clock ticked on!!!!!
Unfortunately I dont get to see them for another 2 weeks......now.....just gotta figure out what "toy" to get and how I am going to hide it from the wife. I may go to the show on sunday just to try to figure out what to get.....maybe a 308 PSS. |
|
So what followed you all home?
Remmington 30-06 model 700 - traded my G21 Lee Complete Reloading kit, brass, bullets, powder, primers to start reloading with Parts to finish my Stag lower with a 2 stag trigger, from the Del-Ton guys, thanks for the great deal btw! |
|
Ended up walking out of there with a brand new Chrome Lined 1:9 M4 Profile Flattop upper, 6 position stock, and stag lower/parts kit for just a tick over $600.
I may go back tomorrow to check out some optics for it. Josh |
|
I might go back tomorrow, after I do some wiring in my house to add juice to the laundry room to support a new LG front-loading W/D.......did not see much in ammo in the second building--I was wearing the black AR15.com shirt that JAFO did back in '02...
Ammo has gone up since the last Sep show... |
|
You could hide it at my house. I should be there when the gates open. G23/40 |
|
|
A Springfield Garand that I know absolutely nothing (not even Jack Shit) about. I have ammo, clips (Wow, I can say the "C" word finally), and I know the basic operation of the rifle. Other than that, I am clueless. Experts, please direct me. I would like to make sure that I got a decent deal, and didn't buy a POS. For those that didn't see it today, please ask for specifics, they will be provided. Thanks! |
|
|
How much do you want for it? |

Quoted:
Complete Reloading kit, brass, bullets, powder, primers to start reloading with What are you going start with 223 or 308? nice meeting you today, take care of that shoulder. |
|
That was a fine looking Garand! The Navy Recon Seal could probably tell you all about it. h.gif
I came home with a G21, a box or 2 of cast lead projectiles, and a few rounds of SA 308. Not much, really.have1. Did you buy at least 1 GOOD reloading manual? If not, buy one and READ IT before you even think about starting to reload ANYTHING. Reloading ammo is a good way to blow up a gun or yourself. DO NOT cut any corners and ALWAYS pay full attention to what you're doing when reloading. If I can help you out, give me a holler. 2. WTF were you thinking, picking up another hobby right before you get married? She thought she was a gun widow before.How |
|
Well, since you insist on getting married, YOU CANNOT AFFORD IT. Run now, while you have a chance... J/K, dude, good luck to you both! |
