Howard County Gun Show July 16-17, 2016

What's the skinny with the Engage Armament 9mm lowers? Glock or Colt mags?

I was looking at them, they have both available at the show. Told me they are made by Circle Ten for them. $299 each.
Also another vendor had a complete Circle lower for $399 includes stock.

Sorry Lazarus, I grabbed a case at that price on primers. Got some last year for $17.17 per 1K Cover six tactical, they'll be at Chantilly but prices went up.

No problem. I don't really need it now anyway

Fox did have Aguilla superextra 22lr for $30 a brick special. Not sure if you could buy more than one. But I figured I spent $20 more than I wanted to on a lower and I've got about 3500rnds of 22lr (mixed) in my locker...

Maybe next time. Right now I am saving for "big" magazines going to DE in a few weeks. A few for the AR build and a few for my 10/22

Neighbor is going to help me on the AR build later. He has built several and has a few. It is still just rainy day in case I decide I want one...but hey, a lower part kit is pretty cheap, right? I feel like I am going to logic myself in to a full AR sooner rather than later

 

[MilsurpDan]

I thought it was a very nice show. Definitely better than the last one or two I went there for.

I didn't buy too much, but I took a gamble and I think I managed to snag a fairly rare piece for my WW2 Pacific Theater collection.

If I get pictures of it today I'll post them in the C&R section later

 

[aoxomoxoa]

Are there any Tikka T3 magazines at the show? I'm thinking about going tomorrow.

 

[sundaeman]

I can't imagine this "one lower a year" is even legal unless he's a manufacturer. Price wise a pretty good deal though, as long as you get at least two lowers before they lock him up in club Fed.

I should have been clearer. You get to use it for one lower per year. I assume like a timeshare type deal. I've read about ghost gunner sharing elsewhere and it seems a bit grey.

 

[2nd=Good+Substantial]

Not too packed. precision has 80%
CCI 500 for $25 1K
Tomkat and the couple have powder.

Do you recall manufacturer and price on the 80% lowers? Thanks.

 

[Mr H]

Decent crowd... good to see several members and chat a bit.

Coming away lighter in the wallet is becoming a bit too common

 

[ironpony]

$85 for the enhanced 80% exact same as my 80 % arms which shipped for $50
Not enhanced ? $75 they have a billet also. Forget the price.

 

[Alphabrew]

Does Engage have any of their E4 basic rifles there? I'm going tomorrow morning might pick one up if they have any.

Anybody see any pistol grip only Mossberg 500s there?

 

[dist1646]

Hope you guys got in on some of those $60 stripped lowers! Looked like there was only one left when I went by.

Managed to get everything I went there for, most of it from Precision Firearms. Thanks Mark!

Nice to meet you Rack and Roll!

I was there at 9:15 and I never saw any of them. Who had them? Precision?

 

[Alphabrew]

If there were $60 lowers there I am sure they were poly

 

[Copper]

SMA had Anderson stripped for $60

Also, what do people usually bring to carry their acquired gear? I can't imagine there's shopping carts...

If you're buying more than you can carry, just take it to your car or truck. You can re-enter the show because of the ink stamp on your hand.

 

[Melnic]

I got my ear plugs , Tom Kat 300blk subsonic and 8mm Nambu ammo
I did not get but saw
1916 Spanish mausers $169 still in dusty Cosmo
Varget
Good prices on primers $25 pistol
Trail Boss

Oh wait, I could not take the smell any longer and purchased the cinnamon almonds from the nice lady in the front corner

 

[whistlersmother]

Looked at the Ruger 10/22 TD-Lite. Optics only - I'll have to ponder that for a SHTF small bore.
Bought some SKS stripper clips, some Makarov ammo, and donated $10 to the HQL lawsuit.
Saw a Del-Ton rifle kit for the same price 2A ha it - I'll go with 2A at a later date.

I saw the ghost gunner, but didn't ask any questions. Frankly, the if that's what the guy
is doin', he might be wakin' up in bubba's arms... Besides, the whole point of the 80%
is no records at all, anywhere. Where's the mill kept? Do you have to go to his house
or is it shipped all over the place - that's gotta do wonders for its calibration.

 

[Alphabrew]

SMA had Anderson stripped for $60

Damn, nobody gonna beat that price

It wasn't a far walk to parking if you get there early. I got there a little after 9:00 and it as about a 50 yard walk. Most people were just carrieng stup out to there vehicles.
