Yep, it was fun. I went to a gun show in Toledo, Ohio with my dad and bro today JUST to see what the prices were. $35 Magpul mags Oh wow that was great. I looked at them and the lady said "Those are Magpuls." I smiled, looked at the price at walked. I did end up buying 2 firing pins for 20 bucks and found a place that does uppers for 350 with out the BCG or T-handle. Found some great deals on a lot of other stuff. Picked up some really cool books on WW2 also. Ammo was the usual 500 or so for 1000 on 223. It was decent and the crowd was a lot less then I expected.

Should have asked her if they were loaded for that price.

My last gun show sucked too, even Mosin Nagants were approaching and some even exceeding $200.



Got a new rail sling attachment for my M4, probably the least amount of money I've ever spent at a gun show.



I did get to shake hands with a spider monkey in a tuxedo though

I used to be interested in one till someone here showed what happens when one blows up. For $35 she can keep the damn things.

What are  you talking about? A Nagant that blew up? You have pics, I've never seen one blow up.

ETA:Fuck, nevermind, I pulled my head out of my ass and reread what you posted.

I made out pretty good at the last show here.
X2 windowed Pmags-$20
cmmg 22lr conversion-$215
I know i paid more than list, but i would have made that up in shipping. As an added bonus the booth I purchassed the items from has a store only 50 min. from where i live.

You didn't even try to talk her down?  I view a gun show like a swap meet... only suckers pay asking price.
