Did anyone find any good deals? All I have seen is how high prices are.

I loved the ammo dealer that had .223 for $1200 per thousand. He told someone, "If they don't like the prices, F 'em, I'll take it home." No joke.

Unfortunately when you are an old fart like me who used to buy it for $70 a case, $300 is beyond comprehension.

...and candy bars were a nickel! And nickels had pictures of bees on them!

Watch it, you will be old one day, God willing.

where there any S&W M&P Shields?

No M&P Shield. I looked high and low on Saturday.

It was also pretty hard to find a Glock chambered for 9mm

I'm already old enough to wonder why all the old ex-po-po Smith Model 10s and 64s don't cost a hunnert bucks like they should...

No deal for sure...

I did pick up a RRA complete upper for about $50 over the web price...but what's that saying? One in the hand is worth six on back order?!

The deal I was happy with was a very nice left-handed pocket holster for a .38 Bodyguard, that I was able to pick up for $13. Great price on an item that is somewhat limited in availability.
And I think $15 for an INGO cap is a good deal, too!

I paid $4 to get my knife sharpened like I have for the last few years. The kid is finally old enough to sharpen them and he did a great job.

We should all remember that guy!!!!!! Let him take it home everytime.

I know for certain if all buyers where like me he would be taking his entire stock home LOL.

 

[twfshelton]

found some Tapco mags for 15 each, got gouged on a bx-25 for my son and daughter, he is 16 and thinks they are tacticool, she is 10 and finally talked her into shooting. What is messed up is, the timing. I never saw a need or want really for a high cap 10/22, but the kids enjoy shooting, and it doesn't break the bank, like all other ammo nowadays. So I gave 60 for a 30 mag!!! I know, I could have walked away. I love this country, but supply and demand sucks ass sometimes!!!!

 

[bberg]

sad but my best deal was not going, walking through wally world I found a Cannon 24 gun safe on clearance for under $500 and bought it. so my best deal was knowing long lines and high prices convincing me not to go lead to a pretty decent deal!

Actually, I know of a buddy that picked up a Shield at the show. Think he paid about $530.

 

[DMAXJUICED]

Ammo

I bought 2000rnds of .223 for $350 per 500rnds. I spent way to much but i feel it was better than standing in line at gander mtn for only 4boxes.

That is no deal. I paid $405 at a lgs a month ago
My purchase was a ZT Hinderer for a fair price.

after hearing all this, I'm glad I didn 't go. Craziness!

With the high demand, that price to me is still outrageous compared to what they were new before the rush but it's not too bad compared current pricing. People are asking anywhere from $80 - $100 per mag. Crazy!

 

[vwarren]

I didnt buy anything at the show but my dad and I both picked up new tommy guns at the south side gander!!!

 

[Thegeek]

I picked up a Ruger 10/22 Carbine, synthetic stock and blued barrel, for $239. Ruger MSRP is $279, so I'm happy.
