S;pw weelemd at the gunshow, but not a total loss.
Scored a couple of Glock mags and some ammo off a guy. He had 300 rounds of commercial reloads and a G22 mag. the other mag held 22 rounds and fit in my G27, but stuck out quiete a bit. Guy had been trying to get 50 bucks for all of it. Considering the cost of Glock mas, it was worth it. but no buyers so far. He said he would sell me one mag and half the ammo for 30 bucks. I only offered 20. He walked around the show for a while longer and finally came back and gave up the 2 mags and half the ammo, all JHPs.
Still slow at the show on Sunday. Lotta safe queens coming in that I could not afford. Finally had a few handguns and rifles that were more afforred able come in, but the owner were wanting to get full retail out of their stuff. There were not ebough ''Desperate Dans'' showing up yet. Kinda late, a guy came buy with a Savage Axis rifle in 7-08, Great caliber, but the gun is just kinda plain Jane. Scope was an old Weaver with a fine crosshair which I can't see well, and the scope caps were missing. Guy and his wife wanted 2 bills for it. Told him I only gave half the value for a like nw gun and the new gun price was 269. He said he knew that and he could live with 150. Told him more like 125 with the kinda old scope. He gave it up.
Came home with it and swapped out the scope for a take off scope wih a duplex reticlwe I xould see. Put the old scope on a ,22 and bofe sighted both. The Savage looked clean enough. Guy said he never fired it much cause he could not get it to focus. Guess he never found the quick focus adjustment on rhe scope, cause it worked for me.
Anyway, I bore sighted the Savage and took it out to a 30 yard check. The handload was a 1139 gr. Hornady ballistic tip at standared velocity. It was just about right on the Pancho El Cheapo pizza box target for a 100 yard zero. wih one shot. Will do some 100 yard checks next week.
Then there was the dad with 2 daughters and a grob bag of AR stuff. Some forends, buttstocks, a detachable carry handle with an A2 sight, anSKS metal gas tube cover, and a beater AR 30 round mag. He tried to swap it all to my son for 30 bucks worth of comic books. Son needed the cash not the parts. The girls wanted some comics, so Pancho El Cheapo offered 20 bucks for the AR stuff and the dad took it. The girls got some comics, son got some $, and I got some cheap parts.
Sorry, one too many pics.
