[ARCHIVED THREAD] - Nation gun show report AK related

Posted: 2/3/2006 3:41:57 PM EDT

Ok I saw maybe 4 or 5 AKs in the whole show. Dark sun had mostly sks and one century wasr for 329. I found a Maadi with a thumbhole stock that appeared pre ban that was 350 or so, the dealer didn't even know it was Egyptian. If I had more money I might have gotten it. I saw a folding post ban chinese (didn't get the make or price) and a couple outrageously priced krinkovs. I did pick up some 40 round clips for 15 buck a piece though, seem new. Only found one guy that had AK parts.

Thanks for the report. Never heard of a 40 round clip before...

What was the 7.62 and 5.45 ammo selection like, or was there any?

There was actually a good amount of ammo dealers, most had some 7.62 mostly wolf. Some with better deals than others. I wasn't looking for 5.45 so I won't be much help there.

I bought 1k rounds of .45acp, 1k rounds of radway green M855 and 6k rounds of 5.45. I got everything except the 5.45 from ammunitionstore along with some badass parachute rocket flares.

I bought the last 5.45 that Mtn Daves Trading Post had.

He came up to me and said it and the 7.62x39 is all going to Iraq and A-Stan, hence the dry spell.

He said it should clear up soon....we'll see.

I picked up 3,000 rds. of Xm193. One seller had a bunch of it. Was looking for an AR-10, but only saw 3 in the whole show, and just not what i was looking for. Good prices on RRA lowers, picked up a couple of those.

Picked up 1,500 rounds 45 acp from Georgia Arms. Was looking for a SigPro 2022 in 40 but the only one I saw was $80 over MSRP so I stopped by shooters on the way home and picked one up. Wasn't all that impressed with the show this time. Prices seemed a little high to me.

RRA lowers were $125. I seem to recall seeing them for something like $150 elsewhere.
