    Of course, there were a few tables selling cheap Hi-Points and garbage Loricin/Jennings/Bryco pistols to unknowing buyers.

    Saw an ARMSCOR (RIA) 1911 for $389, a few LCP's at $250-300

    Ammo prices were awful, as expected.

    Almost everything was over-priced. Too crowded. Too many random people drooling over, handling, and crowding around AR's,

    Lots Nagant Revolvers and Mosin Nagant Rifles. ($130 range)
    Saw a few Romanian Toks, a couple Bulgarian Maks, A couple P-1's a few P-38's. Taurus garbage was absolutely everywhere.

    Not satisfied really, but I expected to not be impressed.
    Overall, save your money.

    .....and that is why I go to the suburbs for better selection, pricing, and service.

    I wasn't very impressed with the show. The 223 ammo was ridiculously overpriced. I can't remember the exact price of the Lake City ammo, but I remember it came out to over $0.50 a round.

    There were a few deals to be had, though. I saw a Glock 19 Gen 4 that was used, but it looked like it was never fired, and it was selling for $445. I also saw a Colt 6920 selling for $1000, which I thought was a decent price compared to what I've seen lately. That said, I won't be in a hurry to go back next time around.

    As for the cost on the .223: get used to that for a while. It's creeping up in price again.

    Was that 6920 new or used? If new, that was a very good deal. If used, still pretty decent.

    I warned you that this is the worst show in PA!
