gettysburg still on for the 30th?

[Whitey]

Holy F! After 15-20 minutes of barely moving in the parking lot I finally was able to turn around and get out of there. Maybe try again tomorrow. I can only imagine inside the show.

It's discouraging! I was planning to go this afternoon. I've been to the show a couple times and it was never crowded at all. Is it because of the snow taking up the parking spots?

Anyone actually make it inside? Too late for today, but considering tomorrow...

One of the problems is due to the deep snow there isn't as much grass parking as normal. The back left and right unpaved lots were both open. This might be a good time to go as all the people that were showing up late morning (like myself) should have left or are probably leaving by now. Anyone have a report from inside?

For some reason when they hold the show at this particular time of year it's more crowded. It was last year. The one in late spring/early summer always seems less crowded. Last show there in the fall I had injured my foot and was able to park in handicapped parking right across from the entrance.

I already assumed it would have caused mass panic to some degree.

As others have said, parking was really challenging. The only way to get a spot was to become a parking lot vulture and pounce on someone's spot as they left. Lots of aggressive drivers in the lot. Inside the show was just as bad. Very crowded, and lots of folks just standing and wandering aimlessly in the aisles. For goodness sake, move your fat ass and your kids over to the side so other folks can slither past.

I didn't find MPX mags, and nothing else interested me enough to buy. Glad I went, but it's a madhouse. Maybe tomorrow will be better. Getting there first thing might help, too.

I found a spot with no problem,but was pissed I wasted my time driving there.

[Flametamer]

Crowd started clearing out about 2. Did see some mp5 mags that's one table selling an mp5. I did not check the caliber.

I guess I got lucky... parked first try, fairly close in, no problem.

Once in, (about 12:45) it was a little crowded, but the people randomly moving sideways was almost dangerous.

A lot of chatter about Maryland laws, and some "Maryland Legal" stuff... nothing I saw screamed anti-Maryland.

Some guys selling (or at least displaying) oil filter 'attachments'.

I picked up a few little things, but the only thing I was really interested in getting was a Hi-Point 4095... and the price was ridiculous.

.22LR aplenty... provided you're willing to pay +/- 10 cents per round...

IMO it was a 7/10

I got there about 10. Had to park really far away. Bought all the Korean mp5 mags I could find. Also bought some other mags I needed.

One guy there had good .22lr prices. $45 for a brick of Aguila, not too bad. One booth had really great prices on thier handguns. A lot of them were C&R. Including a beautiful High Standard. It was a Supermatic with a fluted barrel. Asking price $300!

 

[Half-cocked]

Any decent deals on pmags?

Once you got parked and inside it wasn't that bad. The snow banks made it a little harder to navigate but head straight back and plenty of parking. This was in the time frame of 12-3. Sorry if i was one to block. Like i explained it to my 5 year old who was with me, this was dads toy store.
