      Need more details, was there a sense of panic in the air? Were people buying mags for $100 a pop, or just scooping up guns into grocery bags till they couldnt buy anymore?

      Seriously, were there still good deals on stuff, and how was the scene, and was there the california "two weeks" style marketing

          I saw a smokin deal on a DPMS M4 type less rear sight/carry handle for $1400! DPMS LPK's were a bargain at $100. I didn't see the deals that I saw at the last show. Not even close. There were piles of mystery uppers for $500 still.

            I was there Friday, I didn't think it was too 'crazy' though there were definitely a few people with handtrucks....loaded handtrucks.

              Anything AR was expensive. I got there on sat and most of the ammo was gone. I am more into the AR and AK stuff and none of it was cheap. I don’t really know a lot about the antique stuff so I can’t comment there. Saw a couple people saying you better buy it now because this will be cheap in a few months. But the majority of the people were *****ing about the prices.

              I’m not sure if this is normal, but the place was packed. You had to constantly shuffle your way threw all the people.

                30 round AR and AK mags were going in the $20 range. A little high but not the panic prices that I expected to see.

                  I can remember TriCity Sporting Goods (remember when) just before the HI-CAP (I say FULL CAP) ban selling of their stock of 30 round mini-14 mags for $120 each. And then there were none. If you wanted them and didn't have them, what were you to do? Not buy them and NOT have them? I remember peopl's reactions as "that's just crazy!"

                      If you went to The Big Reno Show and couldn't find anything, then you shouldn't bother going to any Gun shows.

                        Why is that funny? He has voiced his opinion that ALL semiauto firearms should be illegal and that there should be a 500% tax on ALL remaining guns and ammo. The writing is on the wall.
