The Big One - MWCA Gun Show

Was element arms there? Want to look at their LMT selection

Yes, they were there.

I saw a lot of troy and dpms on their table, no Lewis though. If i were going to a show like that, I'd bring a hundred glocks and leave my h&k at home. Maybe i missed it though.

Iirc element was right by the entrance on the outer ring.

Pretty good show, I thought. The WWII re-enactors were pretty cool.

Picked up a Magpul MOE Handguard and Angled Fore Grip for my AR. I really like the folks at On Target Sports.

Also snagged another spam can of 5.45 for $125. I should be set for ammo for the foreseeable future.

I've only seen one in their store. And it was a plain jane Defender.

Funny part about that I went hoping to find used glock 17. I didn't see any. And my cousin was with looking for a H&K P30 and said he didn't see any.

I was there till around 2 and it was still more crowded than I like.

I did get my 80# mini crossbow at long last.

SOTA guys were there too. Looked at their $60ish complete upper and couldn't find anything visibly to ding them on (but I didn't check the bolt fit either).

Also looked at a chrome lined barrel they had for $98 and it looked nice as well.

I was looking at that table too

Seemed like a smaller crowd than normal, place started to thin out at 12:30, to bad it wasn't cool and rainy.

As of 4:30 there had been nearly 5000 paid attendance. Pretty much the norm for the Spring show.
It was crazier than normal for buying.

Do you guys typically find that dealers who take guns in on trade saturday, will have them for sale sunday? I'm wondering if everything is thinned out, or if it's worth a trip sunday to see what's in there

Snagged a nice 552 Speedmaster, bought a nice Marlin .410 bolt shotgun from DonT (because it was cute and I have no practical use for it- keep an eye out for it in the classifieds in about 2 weeks ) , and hooked Shippy up with a nice Remington 550-1. All good, including lunch with Mark and Jackson. Great day.

If anybody is in the market for a very nice deer gun, there is a Remington 700 mountain rifle in 7mm-08 with a leupy scope on it for $625. Just sayin'............

Was the 700 from the guy out of White Bear Lake?? I seen it at the convention center but didn't have the money.

Didn't get that far in the conversation. His booth was to the left of the entrance.

Too crowded for my desire, we got what we were looking for at the right price though. Success.

Just some follow up. Went to the range today with Mark. The 552 is a friggin' laser and the .410 is hoot and half to shoot (it won't be on the block anytime soon).

so far, three of us on the early bus

did you mean "early" or "short"?
