    I would hazard a guess that if you get someone to sell you a table they would not be selling anything that you plan to sell. Not a good idea to help the competition.

    Perhaps someone selling cheap jewelry, beef jerky or freeze dried food might be willing?


    I would think that more inventory would be a good thing for both parties? U may have something I don't and I may have something you don't. Just a thought

    Get right.. I think people are upset b/c if you are full time employed and contributing to society, it is next to impossible to line up at 7:00 a.m. at Gander on Friday morning or Wal-mart at midnight. I personally, don't care about it, but there are a lot that do, so with that being said, good luck to you, and remember, when the scarcity ends, it will be an overnight thing. Then your $60 Thunderbolts will be worth $23 overnight.


    Funny thing is I work 45-50 hours a week at my job :) Have a almost 2 year old and still find time to do other things. Guess my wife is right im like the energizer bunny. I just keep going and going and going. As to the $60 thunderbolts, I for one have not bought ammo at prices like that. I shoot every weekend. Ammo I have would get used sometime in my life time:ar15::ar15::ar15:

    I think most Americans are good with Free Market Capitalism and understand the normal ebb and flow of prices due to supply and demand. But just as many of us will complain when ALL of the major oil companies jack up the price of gas during the holidays or when natural disasters occur and there are those who will raise the price of emergency supplies outrageously for those in need. It is opportunism that makes many of us complain when "voting with your wallet" is difficult or impossible.

    So even though I'm very much in favor of the free market I reserve the right to express my displeasure with those who would hang out like zombies at every retail outlet selling ammo at reasonable prices and double the price on EBAY or wherever. They are just making many of our lives harder and making it needlessly expensive to pursue our hobby. Guess maybe only the wealthy should be allowed to shoot or something like that.

    There is nothing illegal in what they are doing but there are many things which may not be illegal but are really kind of WRONG. I do laugh a little at those who will pay the inflated prices but I will stop shooting before I give my money to the Ammo Zombies and Flippers of the world.

    That would just about figure, I assume the Ammo Flippers will try to pull the same BS while any of the rest of us that fell in the .22lr is plentiful pit get to watch our Kids suffer and not be able to shoot so they can make their buck.:ingo:

    Those damn capitalist. They should just give you some .22lr for free. I mean, think of the children.

    Gouge all you want. It just makes it easier for me to go my LGS and support their business while not wasting my time and money going to the gun show. I can hardly wait for the whining by the gougers as the attendance dwindles at these shows. They'll have only themselves to blame.
