Anybody going to the Kenner Gun Show this weekend?

[EnderMX]

Just wondering what to expect at this gun show - is it worth going to? How are the selection and prices?

 

[Dave328]

Don't expect too much. Ammo will be waaay to much $$, there will be the same guy trying to get $349 for $99 Mosin 91's, most all NIB weapons will be at or above retail, most used weapons will also be at or above retail , tons of cheap Chinese made knockoffs of legit products, crap knives, beef jerky and some dreamcatchers! But, alas, I will be there tomorrow to get some mags for the wifes xmas present just 'cuz it's quick and easy minus shipping.

I go with no intentions of buying anything. It's like window shopping or a car show. I just go to look but if I find a deal then even better.

 

[jazzdunn]

I have a new project that requires 10 - 50 Cal cans. I will be there in the morning to try to work a package deal.

 

[Gunfighter]

Still trying to decide to go or not. It's a 60 mile one way drive for me. Haven't been to this show in a long time however.

I'm going to go after lunch. I need to run up to BR first and hock my Baer and then drop of my New Agent with LL (The Smiffy). If anyone sees a Seecamp 32 or 380, please let me know. My buddy handled one of mine and now he wants one. I will be on the lookout for a Rohrbaugh for myself.

 

[Southland Fi]

I'll have a few tables there stop by and say hello. I'm usually right behind the "black gun stuff" table.

 

[JR1572]

No.

I am looking for 308 Winchester (7.62x51mm) South African battle packs at a decent price. If anyone sees any at a decent price, please let me know. I may have to take the drive.

 

[Grim333]

I really wanted to go, but my son is graduating from ULL this afternoon. The school really should avoid conflicts like this.

 

[AK shooter]

I will be there sometime this morning.

 

[headcase]

I'll be there Saturday sometime, laughing at the ammo prices. I need a couple more AR mags...

 

[Cleburne]

I plan on being there tomorrow, looking for afforadable Mosins. No one here wants to part with theirs and I still have a wild hair to present one to each of my brothers and each brother-in-law for Christmas.

So I went yesterday just looking around at the high priced stuff. 5.7x28 is $40 a box LMAO.

I was helping a buddy I was with there look for a Seecamp 32 and found one over at the people with their guns in the glass case and Red Jacket signs for $350. There was a very nice older woman there who saw me looking at it and she handed it to me. The first thing I notice was the extractor was sticking out way to far and it was wobbly. Then I noticed how bad the finish was. Well the older lady got the attention of some big guy there whose name started with a "K" and finished with a "yle" to inform him about the extractor. "k" + "yle" rudely told the woman that it is normal and "Don't push on it!" "You are not suppose to put pressure on it." What a shame.

Best deals at the show were getting my Glock lanyard for $1 and getting a $2 bill as change for you $10 upon entering.

Looking for an AR-15 lower

Did anyone who went to the gunshow happen to notice if there were any lowers for sale? I want to get one but I will buy them if the dealers are price gouging.

I noticed a lower with parts kit installed only for about $200. That was the cheapest I seen. They had stripped lowers going for about $140. I don't remember the brands, but they weren't Rock River or any other popular brand.

 

[Kennyo1]

!140 plus tax is about $152 for a lower. That's about the same as ordering on line after a transfer and shipping. Were there many lowers or just a couple? I hate to go if there were only 1 or 2 available.

That was just at one booth. On average of the whole show, stripped lowers were going for ~$140ish. I remember about four years ago when the election hype died down I picked up Spike lowers for $80 a piece. I think now is the time to stock up on the $44 polymer ones.

I wanted to go but The Kenner Tax bill came. As well as the Jefferson! Plus the years worth of Flood insurance bill that must be paid in one pop.
I was going to ask if there is a person there that sells Powders and Primers there normally. I was going to get some stock of Tula or CCI Mil Spec. 8 pounds of pistol Unique or Red Dot. And and 8 pounds H-4895 or Varget
