Gun Show May 29/30, Bristol PA
Heck, I work in PA, so I'll go there. I'm hooked to this sport, now, so I'd want to get the largest quantity (better value). Walmart in NJ does not sell ammo? Nope. As far as quantity, fyi.... they typically limit you to 6 boxes of ammo. Other really good values, and what i mostly buy now is 22lr. Last time I went to Walmart, in April, they were selling 9mm 50 packs of Federal for $9.47. :handgestures-thumbup: No kidding! I'm planning on going on Saturday. Might be going with Pizza Bob. Also thinking about checking out the local Walmarts too. Hopefully there will be enough ammo if we end up all going together.

Thanks. I've had my 10/22 for years and have seen plenty of customized ones, but somehow have not seen that stock before. :confusion-shrug:

I like Cabela's, but...
Nice work! I regret not ordering more, now that the $5 shipping is over. I did redeem some credit card reward points and have $400 worth of Cabelas Gift cards coming soon. :handgestures-thumbup:

Humorous Comparison of an AK47, an AR15 and a Mosin
Humorous Comparison of an AK47, an AR15 and a Mosin Found this pretty funny! http://www.mouseguns.com/compare.htm My favorites: Stuff you know if you have an AK. - You can intimidate your foe with the bayonet mounted. Stuff you know if you have an AR - Your foes laugh when you mount your bayonet. Stuff you know if you have a Mosin Nagant - You can bayonet your foe on the other side of the river without leaving the comfort of your hole. Stuff you know if you have an AK. - Your rifle can be used by any two bit nation's most illiterate conscripts to fight elite forces worldwide. Stuff you know if you have an AR - Your rifle is used by elite forces worldwide to fight two bit nations most illiterate conscripts. Stuff you know if you have a Mosin Nagant - Your rifle has fought against itself and won every time.

I like Cabela's, but...
On used guns, they do have pretty good deals that you can find. As far as ammo, the sale prices online, in particular for tula, and pmc, cannot be beat. $6.49 a box of 223 with $5 shipping. New stuff, yes, a bit over priced.... but not effingers overpriced. +1 for the online sales and definitely not overpriced like Effingers! :shock: Cabelas is the cheapest around for .223 PMC when on sale. :handgestures-thumbup: They are essentially a "Big box store", but that doesn't mean they always have the best deals on everything.

Severe Thunderstorm
Had a lot of thunder and lightning. Wife commented on the lack of rain, then 3 minutes later you couldn't see 20ft it was raining so hard. Had some hail too. At least it didn't last very long.

Washington Gas Tank Explosion
They could have been cutting it up for scrap metal. To maybe make it easier to move. There had to have been a decent amount of gasoline still in it if it burned down the truck too. One hell of a fireball. :shock:

Washington Gas Tank Explosion
To make a nice big BBQ Smoker/Grill! :handgestures-thumbup: A lot of guys will "wash" tanks out with soap and water multiple times and then cut them while they still have a lot of water in them. Even add dry ice to the water to have the CO2 fill the rest of the tank and push out the oxygen rich air.

Picked up my first Mosin 91/30
Good looking Mosin. Where did u get it from? From the tags and the black bag it's laying on it looks like you got it from Sarco...? That's where I got mine. Good luck cleaning it off. Cleaning and refinishing milsurp guns is as fun as shooting them. Good job. :handgestures-thumbup:

Forks of the Del. Hist. Arms Society -The Allentown Gun Show
Ed's was there. They were selling a lot of magazines and some other accessories. That's where I got mine. They did have some new guns as well as a few older ones. They had one of the Remingtons I was looking at.

Forks of the Del. Hist. Arms Society -The Allentown Gun Show
So I called up a couple buddies to see if they wanted to meet me at the show. The only one that could come actually doesn't own any guns or really has that great of an interest in them (he has shot with me before though). So for him it was an experience, but not something he would do again (according to him). Everything ended up looking the same to him after a while, even with me trying to explain stuff to him. There was a lot of stuff at this show. I agree that there really were not any good deals on firearms. Now there were many, many milsurp guns there, but I felt like most of them were overpriced. Very few black rifles and not too many other newer firearms. There was tons of other "stuff". Melgamatic nailed it with his earlier post. There was ammunition spread out throughout the show, but really only a couple tables (from 2 different vendors) selling just ammunition. They had decent selections, but no "deals". Eagle Arms was there and had 2 or 3 crates of good looking Mosins for $99.95 with accessories. They also had a crate of nice 8mm Mausers. I was hoping to see more SKS rifles. I think I saw maybe 4 or 5, beat up and expensive. I've been recently looking to get a British Enfield P14 rifle. I did see 2 Remington M1917s, but one was too expensive and I never made it back to the second one. In the end I bought 2 15rd AR mags and a Magpul Enhanced Trigger Guard, no firearms. :cry: I had a feeling it would happen, but next time I will go alone or make sure I go with people that are as interested in firearms as I am and even better if they are looking to purchase, so that I can spend more time sifting through all the "stuff" and maybe find some deals. All in all a good show if you like checking out older firearms and have the time to check everything out with ought haveing to worry about someone being bored. :snooty:

This page has directions. http://www.allentownfairpa.org/index.php/general-info/directions With 840 tables there is bound to be a lot of different types of stuff there. I've never been there and think it is probably worth checking out at least once. Even if it is just to "see" all the older stuff.
