deerpark 83 Posted March 28, 2014 I went to it last year or the year before. I think you may be disappointed. Ever since Sandy Hook, gun show prices have gone up considerably. Please report back. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TOMMY R 24 Posted March 28, 2014 They have the show about every 3 months I go every time. Prices are all over, last show a SAIGA 762 was anywhere from $425 to $675. Know what you want & know your prices. I've said in the past be prepared to be disappointed, being from Jersey some dealers just won't budge on selling you something. Last show I found powder, primers I needed. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ogfarmer 138 Posted March 28, 2014 Haters gonna hate, As Tommy said know your sheet and know how to shop then you will find deals. I go to a lot if shows and have walked away with deals almost every time. Don't panic and buy the first thing you see. Don't go if your thinking you'll find 22's . If you browse you'll find ammo at normalish prices but also find gougers. Its a good place to find cool stuff , a lot you can't find easily online like certain parts, mags, surplus parts.. Etc It is fun to walk and look at all the different stuff and put your hands on a lot of things that you cant find locally or find online but would like to see in person.

Night Prowler 0 Posted March 28, 2014 ^^^^^^ Why wasn't this posted in the hot deals section? Unbelievable. Sad part is they are charging that much because some jackass is buying it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ogfarmer 138 Posted March 28, 2014 Of course 22 would be gouged, I been saying this all along that don't go expecting to find 22 at a bargain I been reading reports on other forums and other ammo was normal if not better than online for instance 1k of 7.62x39 $200 vs online $230 plus shipping Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
magnawing 5 Posted March 28, 2014 These are the guys waiting @ Dick's, Walmart, etc. to buy it out before it goes on the shelf. This signature is AWESOME!!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
carl_g 568 Posted March 28, 2014 The cheapest I saw 7.62x39 was 219/1k most was around $0.23 to $0.25 per round. I was able to grab 4 lbs of H335, an ammo box and some small rifle primers. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
petros600 12 Posted March 29, 2014 Big Ray from Phoenixville Distr has some nice Sig P6 in excellent shape for $350, Sig P226 in 40S&W for $385(police trade-ins) and Colt Ar15's (used) for $750. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CageFighter 236 Posted March 29, 2014 went last night, not too much AK stuff. its all about the ARs & plenty of 'em. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AverageJoe 95 Posted March 29, 2014 went last night, not too much AK stuff. its all about the ARs & plenty of 'em. We're now seeing all the "Pannic Purchases" back on the market. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Njbanshee 9 Posted March 29, 2014 Yes there was a ton of ar's for sale. Prices were good. I think prices were good on everything really, except 22. It was huge! On a side note, I saw a dude get caught stealing. This big ass dude behind the table called this guy out for putting stuff in his bag. The guy was all " I was gonna pay for it" the owner came over and said you better pay for it before you get your ass kicked. It was kinda entertaining.

svt3183 14 Posted March 30, 2014 Some girl apparently stole something around 4:00. I didn't see it but a bunch of cops came over. Sad this shit happens. Yes there was a ton of ar's for sale.

svt3183 14 Posted March 30, 2014 Prices on ammo seemed consistent to last show in Dec. and you're better if ordering online in most cases. I wasn't paying attention to AR prices but saw WASR's for a bit over $500 at one table and other tables were closer to $600. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Njbanshee 9 Posted March 30, 2014 I saw a bunch of rpd's that were calling to me Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
svt3183 14 Posted March 30, 2014 I'm no expert, but I stopped at Surplus City on the way to the show yesterday and I am 99% sure I saw RPD's there for $450, which was better than any price I saw at the show. It looked to me like the only thing needed on these to make NJ compliant was welding the slant break. is that correct? Do these take standard AK mags? *Edit* i am doing some reading now and realize i may have seen RPK's and not RPD's. They were Century. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RecessedFilter 222 Posted March 30, 2014 Be careful with RPK's. At $450, you most likely saw the 'fake' Century RPK. These do not have the bulged trunnion, thicker RPK receiver or thicker barrel. The only thing that they have similar to a true RPK is a bipod, long barrel, and carry handle. Just something to look out for. And yes, the slant break will have to be welded and the bayonet lug ground off if it has one. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Njbanshee 9 Posted March 30, 2014 I wish I knew surplus city was close to oaks. I've been really wanting to check it out. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stonecoldchavez 92 Posted March 31, 2014 Went today. Got there early this morning. Same old, same old. Lots of new AR's; prices still high. LOTS of junk being sold there like jewelry and handbags. Saw some decent prices on shotguns (1100's, A5, etc.). Ammo still way too high; close to $400 for .223 stuff I saw. No .22 at all. I was looking for Glock 23 and Sig P239 mags and could not find any. I also don't think there was 2000 tables either. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Screwball 483 Posted March 31, 2014 It was nice, but A LOT of overpriced stuff. Sorry, but $400 for a Mosin Nagant M44 is crazy. Even standard ones were priced up to $200. Nice selection, but nothing really caught my eye. Did grab some 15 rounders for my AR. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Clintoon Eastwood 2 Posted March 31, 2014 I saw a bunch of rpd's that were calling to mehow much were they?any rpk's? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Njbanshee 9 Posted March 31, 2014 Rpd's were $2200-2300 out the door after talking to them a bit. Rpk's ..... I forget the prices on them. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dimitrge 10 Posted March 31, 2014 Things were hit or miss there. I picked up a rem 700 30-06 in mint for a steal. I Needed a new hunting rifle! Mosins I saw low end $149 plus tax and pics and up. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
petros600 12 Posted March 31, 2014 Surplus City is selling the Romanian AES-10B RPK without the bipod for $450. Its a great imported RPK made 100% in Romanian. They wont sell to NJ resident cause its not NJ legal (according to them). Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
