I was supposed to go but with the release of the new GOW2 maps and my friend bugging me to get some time in playing with them, I over slept. I did get the call from my gun buddies about the show though. Ars various makers being carried around for $650 and up. New ones on the table in the mid 8s and not too many people buying . Friend did pick up some uppers and other guns for a good price. I did want to go and look for parts for my mk12 project but should have stayed off this site and didn't so now I bought a complete upper.

I went. First show in about 10 years.  COMPLETELY different crowd. Hardly anyone was wearing head to toe cammo this time.  Everyone was polite and FRIENDLY!  I was expecting a much thicker crowd but considdering the economy....
I brought a few things to sell, 3 guns and 3 scopes, sold one gun.  I did have lots of people ask about my stuff but most shied away.  
I thought my stuff was priced competitively to the vendors stuff , and was told so, who knows.  
I remember seeing DPMS  at 850, Bushmasters for 1k, 2 6920s for about 13-14 hundred and an LMT for 1500 ish.  
One guy was selling a used 6920 for  $1420 which was more expensive than the new ones.  He did not look happy.
Rock River complete uppers were going for 550.  
Most ammo was generally more expensive than I've seen on line but considdering shipping about the same. Thats for 9mm and .223/5.56
I didnt look at any other ammo.  
All Nylon seemed to be either UTG or 511. I wasn't in the market so didn't look to hard.
