Pretty cool

I was able to score a Spike's Crusader lower for an uninflated price as well as some 7.62x51mm @ .55 a round.

It's been ten plus years since I've seen matches like these for sale.

I saw that.
They have been MIA for years, though.

I liked this answer to a question...
Quote:
They are made in Chile. I've had good luck with them. I use them as targets in my indoor air rifle gallery. Even though the pellet is in contact for only 1/40,000 of a second ,they still light but you have to be a good shot.

Well, I will say there were at least some deals to be had which was a pleasant change from what ive experienced recently.

Certainly some ammo at good prices, still cant figure out why folks pay full retail for reloads but to each their own. Saw several good deals on NATO and non NATO and oddball stuff. .22 has come down but still ridiculously more than the local Walmart, you would think they would be choking on it by now humping it from show to show with no sales....Speaking of which I managed to score a couple boxes of .45 GAP for some less than pretty reasonable prices. A few tables still thought it was solid gold with one guy wanting $800 for a G37 and an ammo can of cut down .45 ACP reloads......

Deals on AR's were looking pretty good, liked some of the leggo vendors and their custom toys

Ammo cans of all shapes and sizes were priced to move

Prices at least on the commie stuff was mixed, reasonable prices on some with dreamers not wanting to actually move some pieces.

No money helps otherwise I may have been humping some odd ammo around or fighting Steve for it. A Hakim or an almost complete one tempted me but I really just want the Rashid which wasn't to be found (broke anyway so I was safe)

Always on the mosin hunt but did not see a single unique piece, couple of the common models were represented but no cool stuff. Food for them went from $125 to $200 a tin which seems ridiculous and I hope no one pulls the trigger on corrosive non reloadable stuff at .50 a round

Really enjoyed the displays with several themes, cool to see that which is just not seen that often

Anyway, picked up a few other misc. goodies and enjoyed the show. Felt somewhat productive for a change

I don't know what they're worth since I never see them for sale, but I'd certainly pay that in a heartbeat.
