Mar '12 1500: What did you buy?

[rdg]

Ok , I will start this thread out. I bought some ammo and picked up a Cold Steel tomahawk from The Knife Lady (thanks Sheila)!

Looked around a lot but didn't see anything else I had to get. Trying to get a buddy to split costs of a shooting tree and may end up picking one of those up in Shelbyville before next show!

 

[hoosierdoc]

Mosin, ammo, throwing knives, mags, iNGO shirt (4:40pm out of XL and XXL so I got wife a medium)

Also parked south of the fenced lot in the street for free. Nothing of value in my car

 

[MadBomber]

Hogue grips for a few AK's, AK mags, 500 rds of Federal 9mm at a better price than WALMART!! 500 rds of Tula AK ammo, again, better than WALMART!! WTH, a gun show beating Wally's prices?

An orange Izula II and an orange G10 slabbed ESEE 5 from Knifelady

But best of all was meeting Dave Canterbury from Dual Survival. He was incredibly nice but damn is he short! On TV he and Cody look like big guys but I'm at least 3" taller (and I'm 5'10")

Where did you find the 9mm ammo? I will be going tomorrow afternoon and this would go great with an M&P 9mm if I can find a deal.

I haven't been to the Indy 1500 on a Friday in many years. Is it like it used to be back then....about 1/3 of the exhibitors don't even bother setting up and wait until Saturday?

Black Glock 81

I had been mainly looking for see thru rim-fire scope rings, an 18" Rem. 870 Exp barrel, 2 shot extension, and a decent light mount... no luck.

I did stop by the INGO booth and got a sticker for the safe.

Wow..that's more than I paid. I got the 500 rds of Federal 9mm brass-cased for $110 and 500 rds of Tula AK ammo for $90. $200 total cash out the door. It was the guy in the far room behind the INGO booth with the big Ammo sign. He even offered the lower price on a pkg deal, I didn't have to do more than stand there and look interested.

It seems to be always the warmer months when they raise prices. I would recommend Plainfield Shooting Supplies if you are gonna buy a gun. They dont alter their prices. Ammo and gear are usually descent deals. I cant find ammo cheaper than the 1500 usually. It was a little more costly for ammo this time, but still cheaper than anywhere else.

I picked up a couple of 33rd Glock mags for $20ea, 1000rds of 9mm for $200, and 1000rds of steel cased 5.56 for $230.......oh and some roasted pecans..mmmmm

oh and the guy with the 9mm had 1000rds for $175 but it was aluminum cased, I bought brass

It was pretty full.


My purchases were reloading book and an IWB from the Amish made holsters guy.

Holster is very comfortable and well made, I am not adjusted to wearing one as I OC always, but company policy is no firearms, so now CC means CC. I will let everyone know how this one holds up.

By the way if anyone is looking for a CZ P06 in 40 there was one at a booth next to knife lady. Price was $519 IIRC, very nice for that pistol.

 

[blamecharles]

Also got to meet a few INGOers Que, lovemywoods, knife lady, and a few others. Sorry I am pretty bad with names.

 

[SaintsNSinners]

I picked up my XD there... 430 out the door

 

[williamsburg]

i got crop dusted (not by Que) and got an InGO shirt from Que he gave me a good deal $45.00 and he threw in a few stickers for free

i got an ingo shirt and met a few of the guys
i also had the pleasure at the check in table watching a guy sweep two of the officers(while checking to see if it was loaded or not) , the first officer while he was coonfingering the boom switch.

 

[bgray]

Well, I had the pleasure of standing behind this guy who never took his finger off the trigger while we waited in line.


I was able to find a rubber cover for my Aimpoint PRO as well as an ARD. Both were a couple bucks lower than internet lows. I too met a couple of the guys from INGO and bought an Indiana INGO patch.
