April 2015, unless you went to another one after that. I went back and checked my post and that's when you got the free PMag.

Stalker? Heck I shadow his every movement and don't even remember the last show he went to.

Did you say "last show at metrolina"?

Not to sound like a silly question, but did you mean last show for you all there or are they no longer wanting gun shows?

 

[cubrock]

Last show for everyone. They are tearing it down.

Scuttlebutt is the new owners may build a new conference/expo center on the property, along with all the other stuff they have planned, but I haven't heard that confirmed yet. Even if they do, no telling if there will be gun shows there.

The area is too rough, is crime ridden, and already an industry area. I'd imagine it will all become a commercial warehouse/office section.

Anyone made it out to the show? How is the vendor turnout? Any room to breath in the aisles?

 

[ikarus1]

gonna roll out there with an AR to sell. Look for the CSC hat

Good crowd this afternoon but not slammed

I went over about 12:30, walked right in, no lines. I was surprised that it was not as crowded as I thought it would be. Bldg 1 and 2 were pretty full of vendors, but it is a C&E show. The other bldg toward the back, was being torn down while I was there.

Saw a lot of folks, mostly older guys, asking questions about AR rifles. I bought a few parts to finish an upper.

Tons of reloading supplies, powder, primers and bullets.

I got there around lunch. We walked around a bit and then got a couple of AR's at the Backwoods Bang Shop. I've wanted one for a while now and I don't see them ever selling for any less than they are right now. That's my excuse and I'm sticking to it,especislly if my wife finds it.

Hey guys,

The Charlotte gun show is this weekend (6/18 and 6/19). This is the last show at Metrolina. We will be there at the Backwoods Bang Shop booth. Drop by and see us! Who else is going?

Nice talking to you today man. Beer BBQ and guns are a few of my favorite things to talk about.

I saw an FNS9c that I should've bought, an IO AK that should've went home with me, and several lbs of powder that I should've grabbed. But being the stingy b that I am, nothing beats internet pricing and an ffl buddy. That's what's killing the modern day gun show. Even so I had a good time talking to people.

And my son and I spent some quality time checking out all the tables. It's still a buyers market for sure, unless you're wanting any type of rimfire ammo for anything close to retail.

I really might go back and get that IO AK. Everything screamed quality when i held it. Anybody know much about them?

Blue Collar Reloading had a small selection of ammo at some very good prices. I picked a little 9mm & .223.

They are good people. Have bought a lot of components from them.

They cleaned out my billfold yesterday, but my powder supply looks better now.

nobody took the troll bait about the IO? I'm sad

 

[ikarus1]

You should've heard this guy raving about them as he was wanting $100 over what i can buy one for locally. And talking crap about Century's US made guns
