Sweet! As it should be. Glad to see that they were able to hold the line.
Csxt602... Glad to hear that you scored. I was going for .308 mags. Will have to make that purchase at the next show.

Glad to be aboard! I bought 2 boxes of ammo from SGAmmo last night and it was about $100.00.
It's a new caliber for me so nothing stashed away or able to reload yet.
I ran out of time so I couldn't look around for a scope. I didn't realize they were going to flush everyone out for the next group of time slot attendees.
yeah
I got some smoke colored Lancers, as well. I use Lancers for my 300 and Magpul for my 223/556. Got a few glock 17 Gen 4 mags for my 80% Gen 3s.
Also got one of those D-60 mags.
a few booths were selling P80s. One was selling a whole kit for G26 for around $650 I IRC. He was selling pretty well. 80% Glocks lowers were pretty much $169 at all booths.

I enjoyed the show
In fact had a great time, Sunday. However, two hours was far too short of a time period. I requested an extension. No way, all sold out for the remainder of the day.
I went to the show with the intent to purchase an M1 Garand. Ended up with no Garand but an 80%, some silver, and Larry Babcocks signed book about the M1 Garand!

I was there, pretty much the entire time. Lots of ammo to be had. Lots. I had no problem finding 308, 300AAC, 556, 45, 6.5CM, etc. Lots of options and lots of prices. There was a guy in the back with TONS of steel cased ammo. There was even plenty of .380 there. I saw 1k .380 for 800, which seemed like a good price these days. Didnt see much in the way of reloading supplies though. AR308 uppers were pretty much gone halfway through day 1. I did find one to complete my build, and I am VERY happy with it. The P80 glock frames were actually only 149, at the durkin booth, although some may have been higher. It was 741 including tax for the full kit with RMR and Lightening cut slide.
They say tickets are online only, but they were selling them at the window. Not everyone knew this, so some people were directed to the window, and some were turned away.
They had some New Arsenal Bulgarian AKs there, and the milled ones (SAM) were going for LESS than the stamped ones (SLR). 1900 v 2000. One booth had about 5-6 AR pistols. Each had an SBA3 brace and a LAW folder installed. They were all short barrel 5.56 except for one in .300 AAC. They were all priced at 875. I almost bought one, just for the brace and folder. I could not see how they could have been built for that price, and it looked like the guy never sold a single one. If I was a VA resident, I very well may have bought one for the parts.
Because I was there the whole time, more or less, I had a couple people meet me during their time windows, so I could help them get/find everything they needed in the short time allotted. Worked out very well. I usually spend at least 2 days perusing the Chantilly shows, so if anyone has any questions, or if they want a guide for their time window on the next show, shoot me a PM.
ETA I also got a 6.5CM, but not at the show. I ordered it (tikka t3x tac A1) and it isn't here yet, but I have started stacking some rounds for it. I did pay over 3$ per round for one box, but most that I have gotten has been around 2$ per round, some even less.
