Not worth the $7 to get in the door, but I paid it anyway.

I went...found some good JHP 9mm for cheap. Also found another pistol I want...but didn't want the 50 buck markup. i will try to find it elsewhere. The trip was worth the 7 bucks for me. Can't wait for a bigger show to arrive.

I went. I got very bummed. I was hoping to trade my smith for something, but dealers that thought thier smiths were worth a mint tought mine was worthless. Hey I understand profit, but this isnt Vegas and they are not Rick. There was real dog beater DW ..the guy wanted $500, it was worth maybe $275...it was that bad.

I went too. I hoped to find a good deal on a 40cal or maybe even a 45. If there was one I missed it. Smallest show I've ever seen in jackson.Wall to wall people though. I did buy a few primers fo 33 dollars a thousand.

It wasnt a great show.....decent. I did find the glock I was going after though so we're good! And I didn't have to pay the $200 BPS markup to get it so that was nice!

Going tomorrow hoping to pick up a few primers at a decent price. That's all I'm really looking for but you can't ever tell what might follow me home.

Don't know what the prices were like but there was one table with a nice selection of reloading supplies

I've been on the lookout for some 20 round AR mags for use in CMP and NRA matches and every time I see them people want $20+, which I think is crazy when a 30 rounder is $8.95. Anyways I found a box of Colt 20 rounders for $10/each. I bought the five remaining and while paying, the vendor said they'd been selling well.

Alabama Ammo had a great selection. I bought some 9mm JHP for cheap and another member here got some powder and primers. Not bad if I say so myself. I may have to call them to see if they show up in the future.

Met JKtruck150 and we checked out the tables, did purchase some powder and primers from Alabama Ammo, decent price. As usual the prices were very high. Did get to handle a Ruger Gunsite Scout rifle, the only one I saw. The guy had $995 on it holy sheep .
Nice rifle, going to add it to my must buy list, but not for grand.

Yeah I had a good time, saw some buds, thought it was a good show. No great deals, but that is expected. Did see a Spas 12 for 1900 bucks. Someone had mentioned them on here a while back.

CDNN has C-Products 20rd mags for 6.99, I've got 10 of them, they all work fine.

I should have elaborated on what I found. Mine are Vietnam era with alloy followers with two marked .223 and three marked 5.56. Ten bucks was a steal because they feed the best and are collectible to boot.

[2-1-2-1] Colt .223
---------
Early US Air Force contract magazines. Early runs had shiny alloy followers; later runs were dull alloy. Made from 1965-1967. Floorplates stamped:

(Pony) COLT AR-15
CAL. .223
COLT'S PT.F.A.MFG. CO.INC.
HARTFORD, CONN. U.S.A.
Back

[2-1-2-2] Colt 5.56mm
---------
Army and late Air Force contract Colt mags with 5.56 stamping. These have dull alloy followers. Note that there are no dimensional differences between mags marked .223 vs. 5.56. Made from 1969-1971. Floorplates stamped:

(Pony) COLT AR-15
CAL. 5.56 MM
COLT'S PT.F.A. MFG. CO. INC.
HARTFORD, CONN. U.S.A.
