York show?

smdub · Jun 23, 2013

This and the Fredericksburg show are next weekend? Either one 'better' than the other if you could only pick one?

Wanna try to find some Magpul 40 rounders

I've never been to Fredericksburg, but I've always enjoyed the York show

Sounds like I'm going up Sunday.

Can anyone realistically speculate how the ammo supply is going to be as well as pricing etc? Gouged/decent?

No, not realistically. Define 'decent'. Price gouging is a misused term that does not apply in this context. There will be ammo there and it will be priced according to it's availability and consumer demand, as always.....

well this helped......

let me rephrase, Is the drive from Baltimore to York and back worth it for ammo or am I better off just trying to buy ammo online/wait till walmart("decent" prices) gets ammo in stock and buy 3boxes at a time.

Look at it this way. If you go to York , you will most likely find what you want. But you may pay a price more than what's on line. The online places may not have what you want in stock and you may have to play the waiting game.

Well... considering WalMart's prices are nearly double what they were 2 years ago...??

I don't know that there is a "good deal" to be had anywhere right now, unless you trip over something online.

I will likely go, if only because I now need AR magazines, and want to get an idea of what's what.

I'm going with the wife as quid pro quo for attending my 2 year old niece's birthday party.

I'll be looking for certain handguns I can't seem to find and hopefully a dealer to transfer them if I actually do find anything.

Oh yeah and magazines.

But the line will dictate if I actually go in.

smdub · Jun 28, 2013

I think I've decided on York (vs Fredericksburg.) Was down in Fredericksburg last Saturday and dealt w/ the typ traffic. Someone just pointed out to me last night the beach traffic going down 95 will prob be even worse this weekend since this is the start of the 4th of July week. Ugh. No thanks! Have never hit heavy traffic going up through York. So that alone sealed the deal for me.

kalister1 · Jun 28, 2013

If you go to York early you will see hundreds if not more people in line waiting to be the first to certain tables. Most ammo will go early, especially the GOOD DEALS. The later in the afternoon you go, not many "good deals" to be found.
Big show, lot's of tables, you can still find Jerky and Jewelry too.

Tconfo · Jun 28, 2013

I'll be there looking for a 308 ar

Dave from Bluefins indicated that he will be there. :thumbsup:

For those that have never been, $1 off coupon at the promoter web site. That dollar will at least get my wife something special from the value menu.
