not looking for anything in particular.
i just bought a revolver i haven't even registered yet.
and i have plenty of ammo.
maybe look for an affordable used 38sp.

Kinda psyched I have not either been on island or showed any interest in the shows over the last few years. The very last show in October I had the missus with me so I was rushed and did not get to look around as much as I'd have liked too. I will be there tomorrow afternoon I look forward to seeing folks I know and making new acquaintances.

That's nuts, maybe they should do a pre sale....
Range should be really empty....
-
Nearly pulled the trigger on an ar57 complete upper but decided on 2k rounds of 762 instead.
-
Bought some 7.62X39 and 5.56 ammo from the SEC table. Of course, like an idiot, I parked at the edge of the parking structure and had to carry that the whole way back.
The place was packed. I noticed HPD had a table there. Were they there last year?

Never mind gongho post some pics of xring girl.... :shaka:

how much were the cases of 7.62x39?
-

$299 for a case of 1,000. And I was kicking myself for not bringing a hand truck. Try carrying that and a case of 5.56 about 200 yards. Good times.

That must've really shown the difference in weight when carrying 5.56 compared to 7.62x39, even if it was more rounds than one would carry lol

LOL. There was no difference - I carried both calibers at the same time. 1500 rounds total.
-
Pick up a very nice Remington P-14 rifle.
-
Bought some new 9mm Starline brass, some 115 gr. bullets (didn't see any 124 gr.), some Ballistol, cheapo flashlight, 3 bx. of .22 LR stingers, couple plastic ammo cases and a 6" triangle file. Was going to check out the Tulammo 7.62X39 but didn't see the price and the table was busy. Hope Russian ammo will not skyrocket with these sanctions and dealers are already planning to bring in other east bloc 7.62X39.

Talked to Ed Masaki, really nice guy. Told me to pick up the sights I want and he'll install them onto my 1911, successful day in my eyes :) Thanks Bigkahuna808 for the suggestion.

Glad that worked out for you, Ed is a nice guy and a font of information on the 1911. Picked up a new card when I stopped by to show my daughter the Dragon gun, really enjoyed the "Obama Special Edition" as well!
It was good to meet more fellow 2a HI members, special thanks to Mac and Dirty, my daughter really likes the stickers, and I really appreciate the brass. Thanks guys!
So I ended up with a bunch of .300 blackout brass, and bullets, and learned a little more about the load, definitely a good day! :shaka:

Picked me up a tungsten carbide "Handy Sharp" blade sharpener - BEST knife shrarpener bar none! Got so carried away - sharpened my Mom-in-Law's Chinese Buther Knife! RAZOR Sharp!

Today i was almost tempted to buy that LWRC rifle from X-Ring but instead end up only buying 2 plastic ammo cans from S.E. booth & couple CCI Mini Mags from J. Hara, suprising they had some left. It was nice to also see some of you 2A members there :shaka:
-
On Sat I was the 5th one in the door and walk straight to the Sec area. Line was super long. Thanks to the Sec guys and other Vendors for some great deals and they work very hard. They must be tired tonight. Met Armsinc, with big arms, and the HDF crew.
-
got there late due to a dentist appointment but I was able to avoid that crazy line. Only thing I had in mind to definitely buy were speedloaders but didn't see any. Ended up buying 2 Ranger Up t-shirts from Mojo Tactical and a Ka-Bar TDI knife (forgot the vendor's name though). Almost bought an Arisaka but was scared off by ammo availability.

I know I saw one on the far left side when you walk in. I believe it was a stainless w/ wood grip S&W 357mag 4" barrel. It was pretty pricey too, looked like it was $800, then changed to $900. Hope you found another one for cheaper though.
-
Q you went?
Scored a Ruger 10/22 with extra parts......
Wasn't able again to take out all the parts I wanted to sell.....Swap Meet my house again I guess!
or as Macsak likes SWAP MEAT!
Great seeing all you 2a guys! Thanks for your help also.
Sorry about the X-Ring girls......I will meet the girls in person first before I hire them....Don't trusts friends opinions!
Thanks to NOSCADE for sharing his toilet bowl pictures with us AGAIN. ewwwwww
ALSO A BIG MAHALO to the guys who helped put up and take down the Shooting Gallery.

Thanks dog. :thumbsup:
Must have been gone by the time I got there.
At $900, I could get a S & W 66, 69 and even the 686 as around there.
Funny how I thought ALL used guns were overpriced and comparable or more than New.
C'mon boy's, the panic buying is over. :shake:

Hawaii's market is very slow to react. I think based on our location sellers have little reason to adjust their prices.

I bought one last year. It works very well. Just don't use much pressure like the guy did if you watched him demonstrate. I can sharpen anything. Try it on some old nail clippers! seriously, best sharpener I've used when you do it right. Crappy knives cut like a samurai sword.

How much are these things. Ive been looking for sharpener for my kitchen knifes
