I went to the gunshow in Manchester NH which is generally the best one around here. When I got there, an hour after the doors opened, I still had a 45 minute wait. It was crazy, but not totally unexpected. People were definitely panic buying. I saw one guy wheel out 8000 rounds of 7.62 and 223. For the most part things like high cap magazines were hard to come buy but still available. Some people had jacked their prices way up, I saw new HI-cap Glock mags going for $25(very good price), $35 and $45(pretty steep). There was one dealer selling new AR 15 mags for $18, probaly right where they ought to be considering demand, and there were others selling old beat ones for $20. AR 15s were abundant and, for the most part, reasonably priced. There were at least 3 dealers selling primarily Olympic arms and they hadn't jacked there prices at all as far as I could tell. There were some decent deals on DPMS and Rock river as well. The Saigas that I saw there almost doubled from this time last year. There was one guy trying to sell a Stag lefty, no frills, for $1600. The guy who really made my head spin around though was the guy asking $2900 for a used Socom 16 I did manage to pick up two used high cap Glock mags for $15 each and I traded off two Mag-pull 30 rounders (they didn't work well in my guns) for a 30 round Surefire for the Saiga 7.62 which worked wonderfully.
