Do they still sell parachute flares?

Some of those prices are all over the place. All I'm looking for these days is good prices on ammo and I'll buy anything I can use if the price is right and there are a couple of calibers that I need. I had one guy selling .338 Win Mag for $20 for a box that was short one round and another guy wanted $60 for a box. That latter got pissed when I told him it was too much and walked away, fuck him, he's a robber. I have to plot things better though...when I go through and figure out what/where to buy I can't find the FN stand again!

Carry a note pad. It helps.

Or use the note feature on your phone to make note of where they're at.

What would be a good price on 30 06 M2 Ball?
And I will carry a notebook and a map.

Wouldn't pay over 50cents a round. I think thats still high

Does anybody actually buy any guns at the oaks show? I find the pricing to be out of line with the rest of the world. It is like they are using gunbroker pricing.

Hard to find surplus firearms if anything.

At the shows the mark-up on new guns is usually 10-20% above what you see tagged in a many shops. Good thing about the shows, is that many sellers get more willing to come down on prices the later into the show.

I got my NIB Ruger LCP2 for $295.00 OTD from a shop. At the next show the lowest retail price I saw for the same pistol was $359.00 not including tax and fees

Both are good ideas that I shall utilize, thanks, obviously my memory is insufficient.

It depends if the .30.06 is US M-2 ball or other surplus. US M-2 ball is commanding .70+ cents a round. Foreign surplus somewhat less. Oddly enough one might find a deal on PPI or some such just now.

The guys at Backyard Bunker should be there with flares and other assorted goodies.

Always fun to look at the accesories.
