    Oh, you'll find 20 round GI magazines there for sure, just like at Harrisburgh, The Oaks, and York. The problem is the vendors think those mags are worthy their weight in gold. I too have been looking for 20 rounders, but refuse to pay $25-40 each depending on the vendor. I managed to pick up a couple of steel ASC brand for $14 a piece a few weeks ago.

    Cant/wont pay that when you can get Brownells in free states for less than $10 a piece. Thanks for the info.

    Picked up FDE Magpul mags and misc. parts. My son got a good deal on a Syperco knife. Lots of good stuff, the only thing I am looking for is a 1911 and I can't get that in Va unless it's C&R.

    I too found several FDE mags, and a few parts.
    Scored a good deal on a Benchmade Barrage as well.
    Though I have not been there for a year or more, I don't remember that room on the left being open and full of tables before?
    I got there at 9am on Saturday, line was ridiculously long, so I spent about 10-15 minutes in Walmart picking up a few items for home and when I got back to my truck the line was gone. It didn't feel as crowded as it has been in the past, but I was gone by 12:30.
    Worth the trip.

    Trappe... not Lakeside !
    Having only gone to Md shows, it was nice to see the things that Md cant have... and yes some things were overpriced. I didn't really see any one walking out with any long guns but saw a lot of paper work being done at most every table. got a set of ar500 plates for my sons new carrier and pickles and jerky. found a mpx 30 rd mag for a give away price

    Wow seems like a very mixed review. Either you love it or you hate it. Maybe it's all about the timing on this one. I didn't see nearly anyone buying stuff, and I didn't see anyone doing paperwork either. I'm sure there were good deals after seeing some other posts. Maybe I need to look harder at the next show. I won't be going to that one though.
