Well I went with my neighbor because he was looking for a pistol and a turkey gun.

ARs and mags were plentiful. The average AR was around $2000. USGI mags were going for $40. PMAGs were going for around $45-65. I had a dealer offer me $15 for my PMAGS, after I saw him buy some off someone and slap a $45 tag on them immediately.

AKs hovered around $1000.  

7.62x39 went for $10-20 per box. Brass 5.56 was $25 per box average, and wolf was around $15-20. I did see someone selling tulammo .223 for $25 per box. Thats $1250 per case. Crazy. Most bricks of .22lr were $75-100.

Some guy was selling a PSA complete M4 for $2500. We glanced at chuckled, and he was like "those are private. no paperwork involved". Then he tried to get us to buy a case of 1680rds of 5.56 for $1600. Saying you can't buy cases anymore. I told him that Clyde Armory had some for $498/case last week. His response was that it wasn't at a gun show.

Saw a Ruger takedown 10/22 for $750. My buddy saw 2 dealers with savage hog hunters, and neither dealer was wanting to budge on the price. There wasn't really any haggling to be done.

Lots of stripped lowers. Saw an ATI omni lower going for $355. Most stripped lowers were between $350-500. Saw a complete bushmaster lower for $750.


I left there entertained to say the least.

Im not really one to put an add on the internet, but if this keeps up im taking 20 pmags to the next show in my area and selling them out of the back of  my truck. I could use an extra grand.






On second thought i may just take all my mags, spread them out on the floor and roll around in them

The only things I saw people buying were hunting rifles and a few pistols. One guy wanted $150 just for an AR bolt, not BCG.

I went just to look.  One old guy who was hawking his $2000 plus AR-15 kept saying what people don't realize is they will be worth $10,000 once they are banned.

One guy was trying to sell his PSA rifle for $1600 which came with I think a couple mags and 200 rounds of ammo.

I saw DPMS Sportical sell.  I didn't catch the price they settled on, but I think I saw 12 $100 when they were counting the money out.

Marlin Model 60's were $250.

That's the important question.

What were these items actually selling for?
