I went this morning, came home empty handed.

But, ran into some old friends, so money well spent!

I tried to help you spend money!

Did that table have police trade in 19's?

Anyone have ate a current (2 pm Saturday) update on the line

No 19's. 40's only. Had G22, G23, G27, and G35. Also some Sigs, a few j frames and HKs.

I went to the Fair Grounds around noon Saturday (today) and the line was all the way to the end of the building on the South side. The line of cars to get in was long as well. I just went home, may try Sunday. To cold and windy to stand outside for very long.

Same here. Paid the $5 to park inside (first time ever.)

The 4 year old and I walked all the way up to the building, saw the line of 500+ people and turned around. No way she would have made it waiting that long to get in.

I'm disappointed, but my wallet is happy.

Stories like that as well as what I have seen, I have started to wonder if a fellow wouldn't be better off making a day out of driving a loop around and hitting all the gun stores!.

Some will take this wrong but to me the 1500 has lost its neatness. Sadly I am afraid it will never get it back.

Bummer! I was hoping to find a police trade in 19.

I'm in line right now, it's moving quickly. 20 minutes so far and we are under the awning outside the door.

My pleasure Fenway. It's worth the price of admission to me to challenge Churchmouse and get a cheeseburger out of him . Finally got to meet Birds Away, Indyglockman, and Chaplin45. Fine people right there.

It was fun to see you and LMW again...and thanks again for the seat on the INGO Gulfstream IV for the flight to the SHOT show in Vegas! Not to mention being comp'ed for the suite on the INGO floor at the Luxor! You do know how to roll in first class mode!! Are we picking up Yeager on the way out?

WHAT! INGO has a G4? I want to fly that sucker and I just happen to have an ATP.

Went this morning at around 9. Got right in no wait. Prices were high but reloading supplies seemed to be fine. When we left near 11a the line was getting long.

When I left it wasnt bad you could walk fine. This morning my nephew fell but they still hadn't salted all the way yet.

I got to finally meet Vert and IndyJohn today. Also saw OneBadV8, but eh, I could have gone without seeing him.

Lots of people there, prices were high, but I had fun. And I didn't buy anything

 

[shadow6492]

Anyone see any Aimpoint t1 2/4moa? May head down in the morning

 

[raptrbreth]

Went, met OneBadV8. Line was around the corner, aisles are too small, prices are typical. One has to search to find any kind of deal.

 

[RobbyMaQ]

Had a great time!
Got my new INGO shirt!

The Boy got a sweatshirt and a sticker. He was as happy as a pig in mud. Nice meeting you guys. That place was crazy. -Jason

 

[Stang51d]

It was good meeting you guys today, my daughter doesn't say much, but she likes the shirt. Thanks.

 

[LastShot123]

Nice meeting you guys, glad I could take a size 'M' off your hands!

Line was halfway down the building, but only took 20 minutes. Prices were high, lots of people, but there were deals! I picked up too spikes lowers for $80 bucks each!

One question though: I did find a place with police trade in glock 19's for $399 each. Little high, but I think they would deal. However, I forgot to grab a card for the gun store! I can remember who it was either... They were main room, kind of in the back right corner of you are standing at the door when you walk in. Same place that had all the police trade in .40's. If someone remembers the name, or can look at it before they leave, that'd be awesome! Thanks!

Got in about 0900 no wait. Did find some colt GI mags that I was happy to pay ten bucks for. Got an INGO hat and license plate. Donated to USO and constitution carry. Had a good time hanging out with buddies. Didn't get crop dusted, so I would say today was a winner.
