Westfair gun show
« on: October 12, 2013, 10:37:43 AM »
Wandered over the river to Westfair gun show yesterday.  The gate fee was still stiff at $7, they must think the panic is still on.
A lot of 22lr was available for nosebleed prices.  The best deal I saw was a 525 bulk box  of Remington Golden bullets for $50.  Not today, thank you very much.
9mm was still available and overpriced as well.  The best I noticed was $20 for 50 rounds.  When I can reload them for less than $13 per hundred, once again I'll pass.
But I did see a couple of sweet pump .357 Magnum rifles,  (the wife had to slap me to stop me from drooling over my shirt front) ;D

Iowa Gun Owners had several people circulating petitions as well a large booth set up.  Apparently there is something in the land across the river that has their undies in a bunch.  Since  I be a Nebraskan, they pretty much avoided me like the plague for petitions and membership.

Was over there also, did p/u a couple of 22rd mags for the Glock.  And yep they were brand new Glock mags for $25 each.  Thought it was a deal.  Ammo prices were HIGH, best price on tula or any other 7.68x39 ammo was .30 a round.  Yeah right.  I'll wait.
