    You must have been the guy the vender said was giving him a hard time, right before i started giving him a hard time.

    Who knows. The lady who sells ammo with her husband, still is pissed off at me.
    Her fault, she had 1k of SS109 (Bosnian) marked at 260 per 1k. So i bought 1k from her, even asked her if it was the correct price. Yeah, shes still pissed. seeing as i got it for 100 bucks less than it should have been.

    Thats a hell of a deal on SS109, I have two battle packs that I bought off those guys who go to York, Chantilly, Malboro and Harrisburg for $75 pack. $260 I would have said give me 3k of it!

    Hmmmmm the VZ is probably sold by now so I doubt if I will go tomorrow.

    Not a lot it just is an "odd" weopon, takes AK mags, and is not regulated in the state of Maryland. At that price not a bad buy, I wish I had bought Hakims when they still could be had under three bills a year or two ago.

    whats so special about a vz-52?

    The price was right. But i didn't know a lot about them when i was at the show. Originally they were chambered in 7.62x45, which is hard to find, so when i saw it labeled as 7.62x39 i figured it was a mistake. Especially at that price. It looked like someone had "bed linered" the stock. Its not as common as an sks, and similar to a hakim or a svt.

    If its a Vz-52 that is chamberd for 7.62x39 it has a chamber insert Be careful!. If its labled vz-52/57 it was originaly chamberd in 7.62x39. Very few 52/57's were imported, ive only seen 2 myself. They usually go for 400$ and up. You can still find the century spray on bedliners rifles fairly cheap.

    I dont think the were original made to take ak mags. They usually look like a sks kinda. 10 round mag and they accept stripper clip on top. Still a decent deal.

    I went yesterday and it was relatively productive. I stayed much longer than I planned and ended up getting to the vintage Triumph show in Jefferson late.

    I finally got the custom fit earplugs made I’ve been looking for. Great vendor.

    Also, picked up the Tyler T-grips I’ve been wanting for my K and N frame Smith revolvers. Dusty at D&G is always good to deal with. A pleasure to see him at a “small” local show.

    Finally, although I wasn’t looking for one, I got a very nice numbers matching 1944 Russian M-38 carbine in 7.62 x 39 for $85. To good to pass up. I did wait a bit too long to buy the loose box 7.62 x 39mm light ball ammo and it was gone when I went back. Oh well, I guess I’ll be placing an order with AIM Surplus and running that puppy out to the range!

    I was very tempted to buy a couple .22 LR tube-feed bolt action rifles I saw (one show vendor, one private sale), but I don't really need another one.

    I stopped there briefly Saturday a.m., on the way back from some business in Westminster. It was better than average as SGS shows go. Lots of AR stuff. One seller had the new Ruger LCP for $295... but "no sales 'til Monday" :(
