Kalispell gun show today. Where to start, where to start…. no AR’s for less than $1200. I did see one fella selling stripped Stag lowers for $165 – cheapest I’ve seen in a while.  Magazines were well represented with several betamags floating around $269-$369. Almost no ammo to speak of. No large quantities of reloading components either…sure, a box of bullets here and there but not boxes of 1000 bullets, boxes of 500 cases and no primers whatsoever.

John Trochman wasnt there, oddly, so I have no idea how his ’survivalist’/’militia’ stuff was selling.

The show itself was pretty crowded…it was hot and humid from the massive crowd that was shuffling through. The tables with muzzleloaders and hunting rifles were almost like an oasis in the crowd…the major focus was on ‘black guns’ and thats where the crowds were. A sellers market.

Yeah, I picked up a few odds and ends for myself. I’ll report on that tomorrow.
