    Okay, the 1500 is coming up next week and a lot of us plan to attend and many won't go because of the crowd, prices, parking, and neighborhood. However, of those who are going, what are you really looking for at this show and what vendors are you planning to patronize?

    My List:
    Spyderco Wave - Brads Knives
    Reloading equipment - Profire Arms & Supply
    10-22 Magazines
    9mm AR magazines
    10-22 Sling
    Bulk 9mm
    Rifle Bags
    Shooting mat

    Good call on the Junglass. Were you swayed by that sweet review you found and posted up a while back? :laugh:

    We'll be there, same place as last show. We will be set up with Profire Arms and Supply and that paracord guy....Come by and say hey!

    I hope I get the chance to get out from behind the table a bit more than I have in the past...Don't really need anything, but I always manage to find something.

    Plan on going and picking up a new Kahr pm45 if I can find one, just can't decide what day would be best. Maybe have to watch the weather sence I'm sure there will be a big line again.

    I have nothing that I really need but lots that I want. The only bad thing is Ill have money burning a hole in my pocket "not so bad but could be". And the fact Im leaving for Vegas the following weekend doesnt allow me to get crazy, or does it. Decisions, decisions should I :spend: it on guns and ammo or should I save it for gambling and strippers:ladiesman:. Any opinions?????

    Pretty sure I'm going to go just because I've never been. Who knows what I'll be leaving with.

    Short List:

    GSG 1911 Mags (Really hope someone has these at a fair price)
    AK74 Mags
    Nice OD Green Sling
    AMMO Cans
    Bulk Ammo if the prices are right (seen 5.45 for 130/spam can last time).

    Not really *looking* for anything else... but if I stumble across a kel-tec Sub2000... I might consider that as well.

    I'll be going because my brother will be in town for the weekend and he wants to go. I have a few things I'd like to pick up, but $$$ are tight right now. I might have to go home empty handed this time. The good thing about the 1500 though, the next one will be here before you know it.

    Stripped Lowers ?

    I have a friend that wants to buy a .223 Var.AR15 "kit" at this show.

    He has a chance to buy online a stripped lower for $65.00 plus a $15.00 transfer...free shipping. (good feedback on them)

    Any idea if any deals like this at the show ?

    I have missed the last 4 shows so I'm uninformed on what's being offered.

    Thanks,

    Dave

    I may be a bit biased, but I think you need to add some steel downrange:D

    The father in law is in town from Michigan so I'm taking him. He's got a laundry list of things to pick up. I'm looking for some 180 - 200 grain .357 gas checked bullets.
