Sure, no problem. Actually, I think he's looking a next year's schedule. I'll see if I can dig it up. There's a website that lists the schedule of all the local gunshows. Not sure of the link. Edited to add: Yep, looks like there's a show the weekend of Jan 3/4 2004. www.dallasarms.com/dates_times.htm |

After I leave here, I won't have access to a computer probably till the 23rd.....you guys name where you want to meet and I will get up with you right after XMas.....I am looking forward to this!!! JH94 |

TXLewis...........will do, bro! Everyone here knows how the folks back home feel about them. I don't want to give th impression I am in the military over here, but I am a Government contractor working in support of the Army in western Iraq.

JarHead94,
Where would YOU like for all of us to meet for lunch? |
|
Welcome home and happy new years.
A bit too far for me this time. Have fun. |
|
I'm in, brother. |
|
|
I'll be there!!! I have a booth waaaaay in the back.
I've met guys from AW, TMO and the other forums but no one from AR15.com ...yet! come on by. |
|
I think I will have to bring my Black&Decker Firestorm that I completed this past weekend, and I will get ETH to bring his Dewalt Tac Driver.

Today is Tuesday and I will be working 6 p to 6 a the rest of the week, so sleep will be important. If Jarhead22 and you make the arrangements, I will go to his house and travel to your destination so we can go together, providing that is cool! c |

Roger that! |

Actually, 9:00 AM on Saturday; 10:00 AM on Sunday. Eric The(EarlyBird)Hun |
|
|
Well, I was thinking about getting there sometime after 10:00, then going to lunch with the gathered faithful, then walking off my lunch at the show after that.
|
|
So, do we meet as usual? In front of Danny's table(yellow sign that says Danny's Guns) at our normal time of 12:30 pm on Saturday?
mm |
|
I was thinking maybe keep it by Brother Nick's old tables, right next to the concession stand.
The aisle is wider there. There's always a lot of folks standing around. It's easier to find. 'Just look for the concession stand!' What do y'all think? Eric The(EasyDoesIt)Hun |
|
Hmm, on the end closer to Global Trades or the end towards Model 1? Sounds good to me. mm |

Hello all. FNG here. I'll be making the drive up from Waco on Saturday morning with hopes to purchase an M-4 kit to keep my Rock River lower company. This will be my first AR.
Suggestions on which vendors to visit at the show? If I'm not successful, I plan to order a kit from J&T on Monday. harleycharlie |
|
On the end closer to Global Trades! Last time we met by Global Trades, I think Jimmy sold three of our members his Arsenal AKMs! He loves us! Eric The(Mercenary)Hun |

Just catch up with us at Noon near the concession stand! We will guide you into the wonderful and wacky world of ARF-ownership. In the meanwhile, doesn't K-2 Sports carry M-4-style uppers? That would be my first stop. Check out the ads at the top of this screen or go to the Industry Forum Board and pick out K-2 Sports. See if they have what you want. And JohnK at K-2 will be the most helpful fellow who you will ever get AR-15 answers from, IMHO. Eric The(Helpful)Hun |
|
|
K2 would be your best bet! c-ya @ the show... |
|
|
I will meet you at your house around 0930? Sounds good. Do you know how to get to Big Sapper's house? If not, Big Sapper needs to IM me some directions. |

John has this posted on his Industry forum: DPMS post-ban M4 upper, 16" 1:7 chromed lined barrel, includes charging handle, and Cavalry Comp premanently installed, no bayonet lug. www.ar15.com/forums/topic.html?b=2&f=131&t=140829 He will probably have some at the show. PS: I believe John knows how to remove the comp properly in case the ban sunsets... |

My current client just informed me that his database server is down. I'm on call to restore/recover his database. That won't happen until he gets a hardware/network person in to troubleshoot what happened and repair the problem. My guess is I'll get a call sometime tomorrow morning-ish. Recruit_Killer, give me a call. I IM'd my phone number to you. Or you can get it off the contact list. |
|
Guys, that's great. Thanks for the help. Hope to meet you all Saturday.
harleycharlie |
|
calling now! |
|
|
I think it was the Scots poet Rober Burns who said, "The best laid plans of mice and men are oft to go aglee."
Sorry, bigsapper. |
|
Looks like I will be there with the family in tow. Cya guys there.
|
|
Mbsk01: I thought you were coming to Uncle Julio's with us for lunch! Dang it.
JarHead94: What happened to ya, d00d? |
|
Nope, we had a Thompson to sell. We thought about coming after we got it sold, but figured the party was probably over by then. Keep an eye out for a future post by me, concerning a gathering. |
|
|
It was great seeing familiar faces & new faces. Curious for the missing notables; Mojo, LT, SuperAlpha, etc. and the Guest of Honor!
|
|
Hey Jarhead_22,
Great meeting you. If you get that gig, let us know so we can have a get together before you "deploy". |
