Ventura Gun Show Question

[Electric Factory]

Does anyone know what vendor[s] will have Surefire lights for sale ? Am looking for a Surefire M600 Scout or M951, both weapons lights.

Doubtful. Very few people at shows sell surefire stuff. You might find a used one sitting on someones table, but new if doubtful.

I doubt it.. I saw a couple of used ones over on ar15.com pretty cheap check it out they were listed in the EE optics sight forum.

Good luck

Hmm. Why do you suppose this is ?

It's probably not too easy to compete with online vendors and classifieds from CPF and others. Having said that, gun show merchandise tends to be overpriced, yet people apparently still buy stuff.

If you want to examine the lights in person before buying, try and find a police supply store near you.

For example, a google search found a store called Battlefield Adventures in Ventura that apparently sells the M600 model:

Looks like kind of an outdoor/airsoft/tactical supply store from the website.

For customers:
Everyone is looking for a deal at a gun show. Surefires are pretty pricey (worth it) but pricey.
For Vedors:
The profit margin is not as high as some other light companies and it does not allow you to play with the price a bit and still turn a profit.

They also are an FFL but only sell to LE, they have most of the lights in stock, LE AR's, duty handguns, limited blackhawk, 5.11 gear and an assortment of duty boots and mil spec boots along with airsoft, paintball and cheap quality stuff.

Edit: Saturday, Ventura has a Farmers Market that takes up all the public parking near the store, you will have to park many blocks away and walk, its a pain.

Battlefield adventures has a lot of good stuff and that's usually where I get my gear. They will also give you 10% off if you are L.E. Another great place is copquest in camarillo. Their website is www.copquest.com. But if you end up going to the gunshow there is a gentleman that sells surefire products and his prices are very reasonable. He will usually give you a deal if you buy a few things.
