    UNFORTUNATELY . . . I missed all the fun and excitement of this show.
    I needed a few things and need to sell some stuff but waiting on good ol' capitalism to really kick in.
    Uptick on ammo is gonna be better than gold or silver. Hicap magazines also. Especially for the Glocks and AR's. ---- SAWMAN

    Wondering how the admin at the show would react to you wearing a sign on your back that sez . . " FOR SALE. . POWDER,PRIMERS,BULLETS" ??
    Probably throw your ass out of the building and out of the parking lot. ---- SAWMAN

    What the heck happened to the Thrifty Nickel? Was a way better place to find good deals than the shows
    The family that owned Thrifty Nickle, nationwide, got into a big spat. They were involved in a civil court case in Federal Court here in Pensacola. That was several years ago. It may have been part of the problem.

    Box of 20 .223 was about $7-9 a few months ago. At the show on Saturday, I was shocked to see prices from $15 all the way up to $27 for the same thing. Prices were certainly high! And, most of the ammo was bought out in the first couple of hours! But, there is still some ammo available. Look for the table with the gospel tracts on it. They still have some ammo left. Get it while you can!

    I went Saturday. Wasn’t too crazy. I actually found some good deals on AR parts that I needed to finish a build. Being from Alabama, I didn’t pay much attention to the guns as I couldn’t have purchased one anyway. Saw some ridiculously priced ammo and a little bit that wasn’t that bad. Box of 20 .223 for $15, too expensive but not crazy during these times. $12 Pmags, not bad. I’m glad I went.

    Gospel tract table still had ammo as of about 1300 Sunday. Bad location maybe? Well, good for me, bad for business!
