Anyone go to the Nation's Gun Show at the Dulles Expo Center? They've expanded the show to two halls (though there seems to be proportionately more beef jerky in the second hall ). Friday seems much lighter in attendence than the past two shows there. This time, the ammo was not flying out the door like it was just two months ago or so.
I only had an hour and a half after work, so I tried to cram everything in a running tour of the show. Pardon me if my notes below focus just on pricing... Prices on EBRs are still kinda high - Bushmaster Patrolman (M4gery) ran from $880 up to $1190. Lots and lots of Colt black rifles (at least compared to prior shows) in the $1100-$1300 range. WASRs in the $550-579 range. Yugo M70s in the 699-899 range. Saw only two CZ-82s (priced at a premium). No Makarovs to be seen, though rumor is the Century had gotten a new batch through Garands in the $1000+ range and M1 carbines in the $750+ range.
Picked up a AR15 A3 upper from J&T Distributors for $345, plus a few pmags at $15 per. Plus, [icked up a few factory Sig p225/p6 mags .
