Chantilly this weekend

[armed ferret]

Anyone up to go? Need to see if I should just keep an eye on powder valley for powder/primers, or if by the grace of Allah they'll have some there. Figure it's worth it to at least go see before I place an order that'll take 6 weeks to ship...

Anyone care to carpool? I have a TDi, so fuel is cheap.


ETA: Yes, the horsehead may be making an appearance.....I'm thinking hooter girls photo?

 

[Boss94]

I'm headed over Friday :-)

 

[jimbobborg]

I'm giving it another 6 months before I go again. Sheesh!

 

[rwbow1969]

It will be a madhouse.

not interested in smelly people, getting my feet stepped on, and burning all that gas.
Timonium Fairgrounds is coming up at the end of the month , its much closer to home...

rofl....oh no, smelly people. after 6 months in afghanistan the "smelly" people at Chantilly don't hold a candle to the rest of the world. (side note: they'll be smelly at timonium too--that's just part of being in a large crowd. sometimes you run into the smelly kid from school. that's life)

and i won't be burning a single drop of gas.

You drive a Prius, admission will be more than your cost of gas for the round trip.

Need some 9mm and some ammo cans, but not sure I want to drive that far just for that.

 

[djleepanda]

I haven't been to a gun show in awhile but how much does 5.56/.223 ammo go for these days? m855 specifically.

 

[Stratman60]

I going. I need 45,9mm some other stuff. Hope they won't be crazy prices.

 

[aquaman]

i live 5/10 min away so ill be there

 

[ShallNotInfringe]

Headed over there this weekend with no expectations - figure it'll be entertaining to watch the trampling at the ammo table.

In March I was at the Philly show (actually at The Oaks), another 1,000 table show, and looked really hard to find M855 for the bargain price of $0.80 per round. Most vendors were asking $1/each. Either way, no sale. I'll be at Chantilly, with low expectations.

 

[Pinecone]

I was there last time.

Some powder, but not much. I did get some primers for a reasonable price. The big dealer in powder and primers would not sell primers unless you bought other stuff. LONG line to buy there.

Good place to pick up hi cap mags.

.223 was going for $1 per round or more, but prices have fallen online a bit, but don't expect cheap .223.

 

[splatt]

I'll be there Saturday. Hopefully, for some more powder and primers...we'll see.

If nothing else, they always have cool t-shirts.

 

[djleepanda]

I need to somehow carry all this to Chantilly to sell.

30 round GI Mags, 30 round PMAGs, 5.56 nato, bcm uppers, bcgs, everything. Going there to make a profit .

 

[davsco]

i work nearby and plan to hit there friday afternoon. very low expectations though regarding pricing and availability of guns and ammo. i should pack up some brass to sell it.
