I go to this show most often because its close, but bah..building was only about half full. Over priced (WAY above normal over price) I over heard one vendor saying he jumped his prices because people are scared about the election and buying... 9mm ammo FMJ was 219.00 up from 149. from the last show. no matter who wins, nothing will change until AFTER Jan. even then legislation and bills have to PASS . people annoy me... anyway, didnt see other WaGun ppl, but they may have been hiding from me Now the last Puyallup show ( my first) was big and fun, still pricey and people kept touching me..well... just around the WAguns table... And some guy kept offering to show his Massive Beans for a dollar...

It's not just the gun shows... I was at a local Renton gun/pawn shop today. I'll leave the name out of this. They had a spam can of 7.62 X 54R light ball for $153. At first I thought this price was for 2. I thought that's an alright price for a local shop. I just ordered a case last week for $137. With shipping came to about $160. Then I noticed $153 was for one can. WTF!!!! That's twice what I think it should be. Other things were marked up from what I am used to seeing there as well. It's a good time to have already been stocked up. For the people just now starting to build your supplies... I almost feel sorry for you... Almost...

Yeah, its stupid. I was going to pick up a case of FMJ for going to the range. Bet the range ammo prices went up too. I'll have to check out cabelas next, just to see.

Secondary choices would be 22lr, 22mag, and .40S&W Seriously though, I have just started building supplies. Sucks, being on a limited budget. Already well over, for this month. LOL Ah well. I really do NOT expect the sky to fall. No matter who gets into office. Ammo prices will eventually go back down a bit. And as long as I keep buying more than I shoot, eventually I'll have a respectable stash. What got me was buying 50 rounds of 22mag, and it cost a dollar more than 50 rounds of 9mm!!!

Selador, watch cabelas, some times they have HUGE deals on ammo and if you get the flyers you can get discounts on top of the sales. The catch is, you have to watch! they hide the big ammo sales it seems, but the do have them. I picked up a case of 2200 .22lr a few weeks ago for 74.99

At Monroe Sunday morning, SAA had spam cans of 7.62 x 54 for $89.00 each. 7.62 x 39, 9mm, around $220.00 a thousand. 45acp, lots of choices all around $350.00 a thousand. All of the good 5.56 green tip was $459.00 a thousand, though - gone way up since last year.
Other vendors had some deals, and some did have sky high prices, so taking your time and shopping around made sense - there was good stuff there, if you looked, compared prices, and took your time.
The last Monroe show I actually attended was in that horrible old claustrophobic shit shed with the low ceilings, so the new building was a pleasant surprise. Puyallup was huge in comparison though, with far more tables that actually had guns out for sale at real world prices, relatively speaking.
I walked out with a bunch of parachute flares to piss off the neighbors with and impress the grandson with on 4th of July. Picked up a cleaning rod kit, and six chamber brushes for the Garand, and a full box of chamber brushes for M-1A.
Real good prices from a lifetime WAC member who does only genuine American surplus military stuff, and always has a bunch of Garands, M1 carbines, and miscellaneous military firearms. Real good guy.
