MMartini1969 · Feb 8, 2016

Is this another edition of the Nations Gun Show that was held at the Dulles Expo Center in Chantilly in early-January? I ask because I thought that these shows were held 4-5 times a year and it seems a bit soon to have another one so soon.

Looks like their web site is down but Facebook confirms a show this weekend?

MMartini1969 · Feb 9, 2016

Same show. It looks like last year they increased the frequency of the shows by one or two. Tough on the wallet.

I'm guessing a bunch of M1 Carbine mag's will change hands this weekend... :innocent0

I keep asking myself, is it worth the drive to go to this show? Possible I may go if my buddys are willing to tag along. what are the avg cost of mags compared to online sites. for example, I get my HK P30 mags for around $38 each and wilson combat mags for $28-29.

You can get just about anything cheaper online than a show. Captive audience vs nationwide. Mags at Chantilly are no different.

Except for the fact that the mag's I want, standard army issue mag's, can't legally be shipped to this state.

I feel sooooo protected by the gentlemen that implemented the Firearms Safety Act of 2013. :rolleyes:

Obviously with the state mag limit law, a trip to the show can be worth it.

I'm not waiting on a CMP carbine but a Carbine mag is on my list.

I'm going Saturday, Never know when something on my C&R want list will show itself there.

SigMatt · Feb 9, 2016

I need M1 Carbine parts to repair mine. Maybe a stock set or at least a new recoil plate and screw. This trip is for ammo, magazines and C&R. I will see what whispers to me and have a few copies of my license with me just in case. Plus a new railed handguard for my Dissipator. I may actually bring that with me to have it fitted there.

ironpony · Feb 9, 2016

I may go Sat am. For reloading this couple will be there Cover Six Tactical I've been buying from them since the drought, no affiliation, this is as far North I have seen them. They might have the pmag G17 mags at the show? I've never been to the Chantilly show.

Mike OTDP · Feb 9, 2016

I'll be there Saturday AM. The usual browsing...

jt2100r · Feb 9, 2016

My SIL and I are going sat. morning.Maybe get there by noon.

Yeah don't bother comparing online mag prices with gun show prices. You won't get anywhere near that. I have a vp9 so same mags and last time I went to this show, there was only one table that had those mags (Think they were called Mags R Us) and they were 50 bucks a pop.

bean93x · Feb 9, 2016

Should be there Saturday.

I was about to ask the same question. I wonder if they will have another Maryland FFL there just in case I see a sexy lower or something :innocent0
