    Looks like Sunday.

    I will be lurking for rare and seldom seen ak goodies. A possible kydex holster for my Steyr A2
    Iv’e been pretty lucky last few shows!


    Oh ya
    Aaaaaaand maybe a Python.
    $2,250 5.45 Saiga
    $1,300-$1,500 12ga Saiga x2
    $399 Triangle 66 Bakelite mag
    $2,500 Sar2 x2
    $2,500 Tantal
    $499 5.45 spam cans (probably the most compelling deal if it can be called that)
    $350 700rd 7.62 spam cans
    $950 Dracos x3
    Didn't even bother looking at the table with the Veprs and PSL.

    Haven’t missed a 1500 in a long time. I am where I need to be but would rather be at the fairgrounds.

    The people here aren’t as comment-worthy as many of those at the 1500.

    With the rain we had earlier the Man from Glad to may have made an appearance.

    It’s Saturday, there should be Goths. Maybe Flock of Seagulls will make an appearance.

    Is Christie Petition Woman still working the exit crowd? I didn't have the heart to tell her she was definitely barking up the wrong tree.

    Yesterday there was a lone woman in the parking lot collecting signatures to get Chris Christie on the ballot in Indiana for the primary.
    How many signatures were from IP Freely? Gotta think she caught both barrels from some of the folks.

    There were definitely some interesting characters this morning. Some hole in the ground somewhere probably got a little lonely until they return.
    That was either the cast of "The Hills Have Eyes" or the extras from "The Walking Dead". Subtle difference between the two, it takes many a 1500 to be able to distinguish one from the other.

    So how many rounds were ejected from unloaded firearms?

    The lightbulb came on. Christie being a very common first name back in the day, I was thinking the petition lady's first name was Christie. She'd have probably had a much better day if that was the case.

    I consider my visit yesterday a success. Got a lot of compliments on my "God hates feds t-shirt", didn't buy anything other than 1/2 pound of chocolate covered oreos, and gave out every free pack of stickers I walked in the door with.
    Where does one get said shirt lol?
    I bought pickles myself and my FiL found the Marlin Mod 60 he was looking for. So I'd also call it a success.

    You are definitely correct. I too hope to one day have as many 1500's under my belt as you so I can make the distinction!

    And surprisingly I didn't see any loaded guns saturday, but I was only there from open until 1:00 pm. I'm about to walk in the doors now and probably just jinxed myself.
