Went to a GS here in NE Ohio over the weekend.  Prices are very high on ammo $40/50 for 9mm AE.  Primers were no where to be seen!  I saw a guy walking around with (what I thought was) a sleeve of WW primers.  Asked him about them and he said they weren't primers so I don't know.  AR mags aplenty at normal prices.  A few AR's but prices up.  Some dealers have a good stock of handguns, others don't.  See very few popular Glock and MP's.  Lots of Sigs.  Few CZ's.

Didn't find a thing to buy...very disappointing.

I've been busy and doing a lot of quick hit and run on the forum lately.  I have only skimmed this, so forgive me if I repeat someone:

It is only gouging if you get sucked in!  Our free market system still works in places like gun shows.  One guy can mark his stuff way up, because he wants to or needs to, but there will always be someone charging less.  Be a wise shopper and don't have a stroke over it.
If I appear taller than other men it is because I am standing on the shoulders of others.
