Melbourne Gun Show 11-21/22

Post by Wulfmann »

Busy until noon when the crowd thinned.
Afterwards smaller crowd but eager to continue spending

In 20 years of doing this show the last three (If I do not sell a single thing tomorrow) were the best 3 evva
Yes, better than the 3 after Sandyhook

I used to jokingly call it "The Great Melbourne Gun Show".
Right now it really is Great :D

Prices are insane but the big question is will they continue to climb

PJs (The big ammo dealer, nice guy) kept most prices to what Vero was 2 weeks ago except Pmags which jumped from $12.00 to $15.00

Ammo prices up 10% with sales unaffected.

People still buying ammo like the Zombie Apocalypse has been confirmed for any day

Local gunstore has Soviet Wolf .223 @ $799/ 1000, 9mm for $599 and it's moving, .22lr $120 brick of 500 (Thunderbolt). A bud works the counter (7 days a week currently), stuff is flying out the door. One "1st time buyer" came in for a gun, wound up putting 5 on his card along with a few boxes ammo. I don't know where this goes over the next 12 mos. Joe

Things have gone off the rails. I am in Alabama until after Thanksgiving (yeah I know about the silly-assed travel ban) and you can't find ammo at any price. There is no hunting ammo in 243, 30-30, 30-06 or 270. Walmart has empty shelves. I heard there is ammo in Birmingham starting at $40 a box.
