they can get, guns, ammo, reloading gear, everything. I had people from Illinois, California and Apache Junction AZ waiting for me when I got here this morning. And the Illinois people who actually live in California half the year got all pissed when I wouldn't sell them all the 12 gauge buckshot I have, which is only about half a case. They called their son in California and told him these horrible people in Arizona wouldn't sell them all the ammo we had. Finally they left. He was extremely pissed off. Maybe he will take it out on his fat wife.

We had another group of California people in yesterday that wanted to buy all the magazines we had in stock and got all pissed when Colleen told them no. They got all irate because they saw all the magazines on the wall and couldn't buy them (I am sure for selling at double the price when they got back to California). If they get this ticked off now, what are they going to do when we are days away from the election and we are down to almost nothing.


Another couple was in with a Henry in 22 Mag, supposedly new in the box, and it had no firing pin in it. They didn't buy it here but it must be our fault that Henry screwed up. We told them to box it up and send it back to Henry and they got all whacked out that we wouldn't do all that for them. Lord knows they shouldn't have to go to the bother to send a defective gun back to Henry, even though they bought it at a pawn shop. And all this in a 1 hour span before Colleen got here. And before I had any coffee. Gotta be Biden's fault.

Full moon.

In all the Liberal Cities and States. They pass laws to keep the guns out of the hands of criminals, only to learn too late they are the criminals...

My LGS is selling 9mm ammo for $39.99/box

we get alot of tourists from CA up here this time of year and the owner told me he could have sold it all a dozen times already this week if he didn't limit it to 2 boxes. It reminds me of going to Mexico to get RX. Go to MT to get bullets.

ours runs from $13.95 to $18.95 per box of 50

higher priced than 9mm. Our box of 50 PMC FMJ 38 special is almost $25. So they were a little high but not out of bounds.

Henry makes some special editions that they leave the firing

pin out of. A friend just discussed that with me this week. He was part of ordering some and others in the group wanted them ordered without the pins. He ordered them with. Said if he was going to pay the premium price it better shoot.

that makes no sense at all. Why would any firearms maker

leave the firing pin out. I would have to see that in writing from Henry. Henry is not on my list of favorite gun makers but even they are not stupid enough to do that.

OVER THE PAST 40+ YEARS I HAVE

of the Shot Show and they would make us special deals on display guns. Some had some light scratches from handling and they all lacked firing pins. At the time they were good deals as most firing pins were easy to find and cheap, so that helped a good price on the guns. I don't think they do that anymore instead running them thru various distributors.

Saw 5.56 @ $149 For 200rds.
