Yesterday's Weapons Forums

I don't get to attend very many gun shows and it's just as well. A good show as far as a variety, but prices seemed to be at least 50% higher than what stuff sells for on gunborker.

Saw an Armalite AR-180 with spray-on black finish for $1200. I didn't realize those had appreciated so much.

Saw a ground last ditch Type 99 for 175. Original wood butt plate & rouogh as a cob.

An assortment of 1903 springfields in the $600 range. A good assortment of Mosin Nagants. Saw a NEW for 475. It was a mutt. Saw an M38 for $350. Man those are going up!

Plenty o' lever actions at very high prices. Saw a Marlin 27-S pump in 25RF for $575. Nice but not that nice.

Plenty o' small handguns for CCW. About the only decent prices was some new Rugers autos & revolvers for close to retail.

Plenty o' ammo, powder & primers. I grabbed a pound o' powder and 200 rounds o' cheep 223 ammo.

Not a bad show overall but I think it was typical with high prices. SWr

good report.the prices here at the shows have really gone up.the last thing I bought at the gunshow in Belton was a Stag AR (M4) L1.the prices on the milsurps were just nuts.I could buy powder and primers cheaper from the local dealer .
