I drove 2hrs to a large outdoor trade show hoping to find some good deals on stuff but all I found were crooks. H&R single shots with cracked stocks, rusted barrels, welded on sights for $300-400. One guy was selling a half box of CCI Blazer 40cal for $30. Guys yelling at you when you walk by that they have the best deal on 5.56 green tip armor piercing rounds that nothing can stop. beat up revolvers for $800. Tasco scopes for $150-200. One thing that intrigued me was tables selling nothing but used pistol magazines. I wondered where in the world they got all those used mags from. One guy was even selling a savage axis with package scope he bought at cabelas for $800. Last week they had them for $250 after rebate. I honestly couldnt believe that people were actually paying $2-3 round for 5.56 and buying old boxes of 9mm blazer for anywhere between $25-40 box. One guy asked a vendor if he would come down on an AR because several stores had it new for $800 and he wanted $1300. The vendor basically told him where he could go. Bricks of small pistol primers $250-brick and people were buying them. Pounds of powder for $75 and jugs for $250-400 and people were buying them. I watched one guy get talked into an 870 express with a slug barrel and iron sights because "its a good deer gun" for $450. No one uses slug guns around here anymore when you can get a straight wall rifle for $300-400.That guy bragged to several people of what a deal he got. I feel sorry for him.
Just in case anyone is wondering why stuff is so high is because we do it to ourselves. I haven't fired a gun other than for qualifying for work since December and dont plan to anytime soon either. If you feed the wolves they will keep coming back.
