    I'm expecting full-on panic buying from Virginians. Prices will be jacked up.

    Won't touch it with a 10 foot pole.
    I went during the O'Bumble scare and that was a freakin' madhouse!! Shoulder to shoulder and you couldn't get to any tables. No freakin' way!
    First and only time I ever saw someone pay $10K+ for a crap load of ammo in one drop!

    Working in NoVA Friday so I’ll swing by after. Might be a shitshow, but maybe some deals.

    Looking for, with varying degrees of seriousness:
    • Sights for a Remington 870 rifle sighted barrel
    • Sand PMAGs
    • Colt SMG mags
    • Semiauto shotgun for 3 gun
    • Mk262 or other 77SMK loads

    I always check Dominion Arms for random used guns and police trade-ins.

    I'm sure Ammo Jon could arrange a $10K ammo deal , and I bet he would even deliver for $10K .

    I might be lost on this - why would there be a panic buy in VA?

    Im thinking of going this Saturday to pick up some items (10Rd for G19/G23 for California) but I could wait until December.

    With the recent election , Va has anti gunners in charge of both Houses, and Governor , and severe new gun controls are their well publicized #1 priority .

    Good for you stay at home! Sure is a lot of old lady negativity on here.

    I'll go just so I can make ridiculous offers and see if anyone will bite.

    Last time I went I got a couple of knives from a Pakistani guy to try out and they turned out to be great quality so I'll look out for him again.

    I also found a Troy Bravo handguard that needed some love for 20 bucks. Worth the trip for me.

    It never hurts to low ball them.

    I'm tempted to take one of the spare AK-74s and a case of ammo, sell it for $1200+. But I'll content myself with working the MSI booth and buying a pound of fudge.

    And a few P365XL mags. Maybe an Uzi mag.

    Shiiiiit. I was going to go but didn't even think about the busy-ness associated with the recent anti-gun stuff going on in VA...I would agree with the person who posited that prices will be...elevated.

    Decisions, decisions...

    Post pics of desperate VA residents suddenly realizing they shouldn't have been so smug after all.

    Our common mantra to the VA residents at the MSI booth was don't take what you have for granted. Unfortunately our predictions are proving to be true.

    Crowds weren’t too bad, but the door guys are expecting this weekend to be nuts. Prices were a LITTLE higher than a few months ago but not drastically so on what I was looking at
