Lots of overpriced stuff. $100 Anderson lowers. Was looking for reasonable deals on .308 for my buddy but didn't see anything for much under .50/round.

I also don't get how guys expect to sell anything when they bring four tables worth of rubbermaid bins and just plop them down. I was digging in one on the table and another guy was in one on the floor, he finally exclaimed "this is ridiculous" and walked on. I followed shortly after...

I did find a quick release mount for my M203 and matech rear sight for my block II clone for a really good price. Had a good conversation with the guy who had the table and another guy that was there when I walked up.

I'm not really into knives but it seemed like there were a lot there. Lots of really nice looking handmade knives too.

What tables were the Anderson lowers for $100 were at? I was perusing through the show and the most expensive was $70. There was a .308 lower for 150 though.

Didn’t catch the name. When I see something like that I don’t bother looking at the rest of the table. There was at least one that had them for $95 and one for $100. They were the Anderson lowers in the bubble package.

Was there much C&R stuff? I used to go to the October shows looking for C&R, but it started getting thin on the ground and expensive. Add that to a 6-7 hour round trip and the shows were not so enticing. And motels in the area are stupid priced, unless you like bedbugs.

Ran back out there today, didn't think I'd make it but got there with 20 minutes left. Glad they didn't turn me away

Took my Garand to the guy with a table full of them and extra stocks. Great guy to talk to. He looked it over and made some suggestions to fix my problems (with the rifle anyway)

I also bought a stock from him for $40 that I think will work much better than the replacement stock that came with it from the CMP

Huge shout out to Rix, he got the guys number for me when I didn't think I was going to make it out there

Wow! Where did you see that? I went on Sunday around 11a and the only thing that caught my eye was the booth 80% build kits/parts near the back corner.
