I figured prices would be up but not as bad as they were. EBRs were in the four figure range - a few put-togethers like 750. The only thing Evil & Black I gave a second look was a DPMS lower complete except for stock @ 125. But I passed. For that money, I suspect something was monkeyed up about it.
Anything resembling a Kalashnikov was pricey, too. WAY pricey. Saw a 7.62x39 Saiga for 1200. I have no idea why it was priced that way. WASRS in the 600 - 700 range.
Not much for milsurps. Saw a rack of 8 Enfields - your choice for 500 each. I'm not making this up. All WW2 vintage. Saw a 6.5 Italian Vetterli for 750.
Guy also had a Dutch Beaumont for the same money. Needless to say, he's had them for years.
Quite a variety of shotguns & coyote rifles which is the bread & butter of gun shows around here. Plenty o' jerkey, popcorn, other munchies. Big display of "survival food". Heck - anything I eat technically qualifies for that.
MREs too numerous to mention and full cases of freeze-dried meals. Pass, pass & pass.
But I did grab a NOS set of grips for my rusty Ruger & a big bag o' 38 Spl brass. $20 for all that. Saw some guys I've known forever & had a good time yukking it up.
I hope things don't get worse from here price wise. SW
