    Default Went to the gun show yesterday

    Picked me up a lighter trigger for my 32c.

    Got me a couple of new rigs.

    Got my son a couple of airsoft guns.

    Stocked up on some ammo.

    Bought a duffle bag big enough to stuff a corpse in for dirt cheap.

    Saw a bunch of Coach, Prada, Channel, Burberry knock off purses.

    Almost picked me up an AR15 from a private deal.

    Talked to my buddy about some silencers, learned some new things.

    Saw some damn good deals on guns.

    Remembered I need to buy more safes before I buy more guns.

    Spent the whole day with my son.

    So it was a good day.

    Just thought I'd share something positive today.

    Carry on.

    Sorry, but I will not contribute to the deliquency of minors, nor endanger National Security by arming another terrorist.......


    Just playing.

    We can. There's a couple of IA folks that have asked me about that. This weekend was pretty good because they had a big handgun selection.

    Funny you would mention Glocks. I met an older couple that retired from Glock and now sell mod parts for them (that's who I bought my lightened trigger from). The guy took my gun apart in like 10 secs. He was amazing. He had a cut-away of the glock and explained every damn little piece of the internals like he designed them himself. Hell, maybe he did.

    He was cool though. Gave me a good deal on my trigger, installed it, and I picked up one of the rigs from him too. Cool people.

    There are some funny characters there sure enough.

    The funniest is when you see them with homeless people cardboard signs hanging from their neck WTB stuff.

    I guess it works though, cause every damn one I go to there's some of them.

    They had some really cheap stuff there yesterday.

    9mm FMJ for like $8/50
    45 ball ammo for like $9.50/50
    357/38 SWC target ammo for like $8/50

    They also had some hot +P handloaded stuff for like $13-15/50, which is good compared to some of the commercial stuff.

    That's where I like to stock up with ammo from.

    Ummm, not for that kind of price my friend.

    I did see a hellva deal on a Kimber there yesterday. These two guys got to it before I did. Very nice.

    40 glocks range more like in the $400-500 range usually, unless you can find them used.

    Right... Used would be okay, if not abused....

    Do you know anything about High Point? I saw 40 cals for like $135, but I didn't like the feel of them... Ever heard of this company?

    Yes, used is the only way they'll ever get crack head prices on Glocks.

    Yes, I know about High Point. I have one of their carbines. Julio has one of their 9mm's.

    They are very inexpensive guns. Very ammo sensitive. Very Saturday night specialesque, which is to say that if it jams on you....throw it at them and run.

    Actually my carbine shoots very straight. It's a 9mm and only holds 8 (If I remember correctly) but it shoots very very tight groups. So it's serves that purpose. It's still ammo sensitive and you have to be aware of that.

    Mark, I didn't end up getting it.

    We talked and then he changed his mind about giving me a deal on it, so I passed on it. He wanted $850, which I could negotiate inside for that or better anyway for a new one. I had him talked down to something more reasonable, but he then backed out and so did I.

    Oh well, maybe next time.....

    Ummmm, yeah that's hot.

    You would've been in heaven yesterday then. They had a ton of long guns and tactical stuff all over the place. They even had a couple of 50 cal monsters that were pretty impressive.

    I definetly will next time.

    Joan went down to her grandmothers to help her pack, so I told Daniel it was boy's day out. He was like a kid in a candy store. Asking all kinds of questions about every gun in the place. It was cool cause some of the vendors talked to him about history and stuff, which was very cool. Daniel was like, "Dad, is that really a WWII gun?....Dad, is that really a helmet the Nazi's wore?.....Dad, does that guy really only have 2 teeth in his mouth?...."

    Ooops, said too much.....

    Seriously, I had fun just walking around with my little guy and picking up just nick nacks here and there.

    Sorry, got busy.

    Shag: Yes, Eastman @ NorthAtlanta trade Center.

    Snail: Yes you did.

    Julio: Yes you did, eventhough I knew I'd run into you or Atif there.

    Trini: http://www.eastmangunshows.com/
    As someone already mentioned, the next one and the last one before the first of the year is this weekend in Gainesville at the Mountain Center.


    Sniper: You would've liked this one vendor there then. They had this holster that would go not only IWB, but in your pants dangling down.....

    It's a rig where you have the holster with a long tongue which is the part you would attach to your belt. It has a cell phone holder built in. So when you put it in, you can only see the cell phone. The trick is that the holster hangs to the INSIDE of your pants and in towards your thigh. It only works with loose pants, i.e. suit or slacks. To retreive, you pull up on your cell phone, which brings up the butt of the gun for you to pull out. It was kinda awkward for me, so I opted for a Fobus tactical instead. It rides high, so it's comfortable in the car, but it's real tight against me so no need for bulky clothes to hide it behind. Wore it all day today and not one person noticed, which is the purpose, right?

    Sniper: Thought of something after I posted.

    Have you ever considered a belly band holster? I have one and it works well, as long as you don't try and carry a damn canon.

    It has a built in mag holder too. Can be worn inside the clothes and only requires you to take off a button or two to bring the gun out. I've used it with my little Firestar .40 and my Bersa 380 w/o any discomfort. I usually wear it not on my bare skin, but on top of my undershirt but below my dress shirt. It works and it's relatively inexpensive. They had some newer models there this weekend that were less wider than mine. Mine I've had for years and it's as wide as a corset, although that kinda HELPS me a little....

    Just a thought. I like IWB too, as long as it's something very thin.
