Lafayette (Fairgrounds) Gun and Knife Show June 8th & 9th

[cow35f]

Nice show! Gun prices very reasonable, and ammo not so much. Bought a delta ring removal tool.

I bought some 9mm reloads for a reasonable price. There was a good selection of guns but most where a bit pricey. One vendor had a couple of m&p shields for $460 which I guess is not horrible. The bricks of 22lr for $80-100 where a complete joke. There was a table of WWB 45ACP 100 round boxes for $45 which is not too bad given today's climate.

I left with a carbine length gas tube, which was all I was really looking for, but GEEZ!

I think the ammo prices are getting worse.
I saw a spam can of 7.62x54R (440 round can) for $135!

Others I saw were asking $1 p/round for Prvi-Partisan x54R

I did see some Hornady Custom(?) .303 British for $21.95, and Hornady Flex-tip .45-70 Govt for $45 p/20 rounds!

The all-but obsolete .303 British seemed like the best ammo deal.

All .22 was a joke.

Found an old box of .223 Norinco in brass. Worth it as a curiosity.

A couple of PMAGs at a decent price.

Some .303 stripper clips.

Would have liked to buy .223 brass and other supplies, but the prices were just too salty for me.

INGO vendors ought to post their handles at their booths.

I was there a couple hours, and did not buy anything. I did get a chance to talk with several friends. I heard a vendor cussing out a customer that thought the .22's were too much money. I was looking at something else on his table, but when I heard that, I decided I didn't want to do business with the man. Saw some metal 30 rd AR mags under $20. Most of the vendors were friendly and tried to help if you were looking for something.

Glad you at least found it!

I find GM to be the best deal on ammo these days. They price match anyone else, and they have some shotgun shells for $5.99/box which is less than Wallyworld.

- My fiancé and I went, we wheren't too impressed. Some nice rifles, ammo didn't wow me. Didn't see too much in accessories and extra mags I found where cheaper online.
