Oaks Gun Show - Eagle Arms

[Menandros]

I'll be there in a three piece pinstripe suit with big n' ugly round glasses. I'm easy enough to find.

Who has the best prices on ammo ?

[Shadowline]

I'm not planning on going, but now find myself in need of night sights and mags for my SR9C....someone please post if you see some good deals on Truglo (for sr9c) or on mags.

I think the promoter of this show is a savy guy and is probably working out the details of adding a Friday night as we speak. Stay tuned.....

Ah, yes, the Friday previews. I forgot about that when I put in a few recommendations in the thread for the last Oaks show.

Yeah, I liked the Fridays at VF. The goods weren't as picked over, and the crowds were smaller. Only caveat was that not all the vendors showed up for Friday nights.


My plan is to go around 2ish, and try to find a jug of Solo 1000, or failing that, a pound of Clays to try out. I have lots of TiteGroup, but when you put a cast bullet on top of it, you end with a cloud of acrid smoke.

In line now...wearing this t-shirt! Come introduce yourself if you see me!

How's the line. I plan on being there bright and early on Sunday morning.

[photoshooter]

I'm going tomorrow as well. Last couple times I went the line moved along at a nice pace.

Got there at 9:30. Line was to the end of the building. parking was tough, so by the time we walked back, the line was half the length. Line then moved very fast, split in to two, so they were prepared. Had to have my gun tagged, breazed right in. I was in line for maybe 10 minutes.

Isles are wide, lots of room to browse. Our forum member is back to the right, selling ammo cans, etc. Second time I've dealt with him and his prices were the best that I saw. $10/50 caliber, $6 for 30 caliber. Plus, he's right by an Exit door, so we just popped the door open and loaded the cans right into our car.

I saw more handguns than I expected and a table of Glock 23 police trades-ins, $395. I don't care for the Glock in 40, but heck a 9mm barrel makes it a 19, so it was tempting. Even saw a used Gen 2 Glock 19, which I prefer without the finger grooves, $450 (a bit high).

Just got home, it was a great show. Definately one of the best I have been to, with a huge assortment of guns.

Saw a few S&W M&P Shields, was very tempted but since I already have a PM9 and a Kimbber Solo I didn't get one as they are both a little smaller than the Shield. It was very nice though.

If you are on the fence about going, GO!

I just got back also....not a bad show...

I went with the intention of at least picking up an m91/30, and possibly an AK...than I saw a Smith & Wesson E series 1911 bobtail that looked pretty nice....ended up not being able to make up my mind so I left buy not before I picked up 50 cal ammo can..

As usual, prices on many things were a little higher than what you can find online...Saw some Garands with crazy prices ($1500 and up)....

Off topic....boy, driving out that way from Upper Bucks County sucks...
