    To be able to contend with the "sticker shock" of powders & primers IF there were any available I'd have to double double up on my blood pressure meds.
    Still not over seeing the online price an 8 # jug of RL 16 go up $25.00 from Friday to Monday, and that's before the S&H and HasMat.

    I hope to attend this show. It will be the first time I attend a show in Pensacola. What should I expect?

    A great unparalleled selection! The best selection under one roof in this area. Expect to spend a few hours and you still won't see everything! I usually make three or four laps thru the tables to see everything. Stop and talk to dealers and ask what's under the table that they haven't got room to display too. Go digging thru every box of possibles. It's a real treasure hunt! The best deals are walking thru the door with individuals. Spend time near the front door. Grab a seat at the bar by the door and just watch what comes in when you want to take a break

    I'll go, but just to look for that Unicorn of a part for my rifle that I may never find ... National Match sights for my M1 Garand rifle (legit ones, not cheap copy/reproductions). I'll keep looking

    Castings mostly. The originals were machined. Its not that the ones you find online are bad, they will certainly do the job with a little work to get them to fit properly and some adjustments.

    you put your M1 Rifle (Garand) into an EBR? This actually sounds interesting, should post pics. Curious if its a legal mod for the CMP matches (LOL, thats what I'm trying to get back into doing).

    If you found a NM check the threads on the wind adj. they should be clean and sharp and have a good fit also check the app. for fit and rotates and not to looses and for casting marks., If it gets past at this point hope it will fit. I had to buy a tap to use on the threads that were not right . you should not have to force it and be to trite and good luck.

    Go figure I gotta work Saturday and Sunday this weekend. The stuff tends to be pricy at this show, but I still enjoy walking around and seeing all the interesting stuff.

    I'm probably skipping this show. I filled up on gas in Milton before I left to go to Sam's Club the other day and then I filled up when I got back to see how much a trip cost me going to Sam's. $20 round trip. So I'd be looking at about $30 including admission just to go to the gun show. I hardly buy anything from there. Usually Beef Jerky.
