[QUOTE="tRidiot, post: 3557055, member: 9374"] We just got home. Some craziness there, yeah. Lots of $1/round .223 and 9mm. Lots of $0.12-15/round .22. Some prices I took notes on because they just stuck out to me: Barely in the door and I see a Ruger GP100, spotless, I've kinda wanted one for a long time. Till I saw the price - $850. Guy said it was brand new, unfired, in the box. Whatever, I don't care. Later I saw another beat up one that looked a little rough for the same price - $850. Saw a Glock 27 with a pinky extension for $695. I looked at it for a minute in the glass case, I was trying to see if it had any kind of upgrade I couldn't tell... you know, trigger, night sights, something. I asked the dealer, "Is there something special about this Glock?" He said, "Nope." Ok, moving on... Saw a Ruger SP101 with an 1150 tag on it. It was in a box, the one under it was not, I asked him if this was the price for both, he said, no, I said, "$1150 for an SP101???" He said, "Yes, that's not a .357 and those aren't regular grips." I just nodded and went on. Ok. Let's see, what else? Lemme check my notes... Anderson LPKs at $75/ea. At one vendor - saw them several other places at $50. Bone stock base S&W M&P .223 - $900 WWB $100 for 100 rounds. On guy selling Anderson stripped lowers for $175 cash from his "private collection" - meaning no paperwork or background check. He had about a dozen on the table and I watched 2 of them go in the 10 seconds I was there. This is the kind of thing that is gonna get private sales banned. Lots of AR uppers for sale. Best deals seemed to be $350 or so without CH/BCG, most were in the $500-600 range w/BCH & CH. M&P Sport .22 for $595 shocked me, until I saw an M&P 15 later on another table. DPMS essentially stock with a cheap foregrip and a "Sniper" brand scope, bungee sling and nylon zipper case - $1400. Bushmaster XM-15 with a flip up rear, front post and Minimalist stock $895 PSA 9mm AR with a low-end red dot and an M-LOK handguard - $1200 M&P15 .22 $699 These from Durkin Tactical - .308 168gr Sierra 200rd/$379 Wolf .223 1000rd/$699 - don't know if this was steel or brass Wolf Polyformance 7.62x39 1000rd/$475 Wolf Military Classic Steel 7.62x39 hollow point 1000rd/$499 Elsewhere: Federal .22 40gr range pack 800rd/$149.95 Winchester M-22 1000rd/$239.95 IMI 5.56 M855 62gr 500rd/$425. IMI 7.62 NATO 147gr M80 500rd/$550 Wolf steel case 7.62x39 500rd/$225, 1k rd/$450 I saw very few places to buy much in the way of AR parts. Lots and LOTS of complete uppers, but not many places to pick up handguards or things like I've seen and done before. I saw ONE place (K&M Tactical or something?) with about a dozen BCGS - $145 for phosphated, I think $180 or so chromed? So anyways, my feet hurt.
