Allentown PA gunshow 9/6/09

[Dblaze 0]

Hello Everyone,

I finally went to the gun show yesterday in Allentown and I thought I would fill everyone in on what was there...

There was a bunch of collectibles there, many shotguns and rifles...Best handgun prices (and they basically had every handgun there). Best deals I saw there were on the Handguns (i.e. sig 250 for $400 Brand new, Glocks starting at $375 Brand new). Unfortunately none of them had the exact Mossberg shotgun I wanted. I was trying to purchase a Mossberg pump 500 with the pistol grip and they would not sell it to me since I was from NJ. There surprisingly wasn't a lot of ammo there, but you could definitely find something if you was looking. Not one vendor there had .40 cal snap caps which was a disappointment. Other than that they had EVERYTHING else. Overall it was a good time and I know what to expect for the next one...

Long story short, I ended up going with one of the site vendors who offered me the best price on a Mossberg pump a few days ago (which was the same offer I was getting from the gun show in PA). This forum's vendors have the best prices in NJ. Thanks guys!

I definitely know where to find them (A-Zoom Snap-Caps best prices are on ebay by the way); I guess I was thinking the gun show would be this magical place where I could find absolutely everything at the best prices around, but I was mistaken.

YUP! They had a whole case of about 8 of them in bi-tone for only $400 brand new (I assume they add $5 for NICS and low tax on a cash deal)!!! They were willing to work with FFL's in NJ to get it to us over here as well.

They don't do the NICS they ship to your FFl and the you pay NJ NIC's $15 + transfer.

 

Gun shows are magical places for beef jerky, bumper stickers and useless nazi crap.

Beef Jerky was AWESOME! We had the HOT and Teriyaki!

 

Wolfy - you are absolutely right! Nothing there I needed at all. My friend found his AR-15 upper to complete his build, but other than that, it was a waste of time for me...

shows are great to oggle for stuff...but was this the eagle arms one?

 

PA laws now treat AR's as pistols I believe, so need to be sent to fll.

 

They are great for some stuff, ie Mosin's =)

Yeah, this was the 250 table show at the conference center. My friend only needed the upper to his AR which was the barrel assembly, so he didn't have to fill out any additional paperwork for it. Overall it was OK, but just was expecting a bit more especially for the 1.5 hour drive one way.
