    I’m the can guy. I wasn’t sweating it. See you In January!
    I love threads like this on INGO!
    It is like the missed connections section on Craigslist!
    I am sure there are members on here that I interact with every week in real life, just never make the connection to INGO since I don’t post much.
    I hope to make it to the fairgrounds tomorrow afternoon for a little bit of people watching and maybe find something I don’t really need.

    Thank you to Kelly. I go to hang out after stimulating the economy although I did get some screaming deals.

    Rested my Chester/Festus leg (my adductor is en fuego), sorted my stuff and caught up on gossip. I tried to cover for Kelly so he could walk the show but he was dedicated.

    Great show. Scored some screaming deals on hard to find mags (ZIG 365 15 rds), also a like NIB Colt M6951, and an Aimpoint Comp5 with mount (fantastic deal, deal of the show), couple of peanut butters (EPMs), Troy BUIS, frangible ammo, and knives, a Boker, a Kershaw (that slide knife) and a Partial Immunity (could not stop laughing at the name) Benchmade and a couple of Honey Badger knives.

    Great show, great deals, everyone who says "ain't no gud dealz" are missing out, at least get out and enjoy the Mercatus! Ok, "enjoy" is a little strong.

    There were some deals for sure, I heard a lot of vendors selling 3/4 of their inventory I like to give a shout to Tony’s Customs for having top notch surplus goodies, most of their goodies are Colt, Fn, Stag, DPMS, USGI surplus. I got a steal on some Colt side sling mounts, ext brake for my R4 SOCOM, kak panels all for 1/2 the cost of online retail.
    I stopped by Jwalk custom holsters and had a real nice leather/kydex holster made for an M9A2 with a light. Most quotes I had gotten for wanted was near the 100-200$ mark and a 2-6 week wait.
    He done it in 1 hour and at 75$!$!.

    Also made a deal on an OKC3S, tis darn near mint which is not too typical of the bring back non commercial USMC bayos these days, they are either left there or brought back trashed.

    Is it any better today?
    It was when I got here, but that was around 830. There are still multiple things going out here but not as many as yesterday. The parking Director people seem to have their stuff together pretty good, but they have some roads blocked.

    So is it worth going this late?
    Like many things in life, it depends. This afternoon there will be bulk, ammo, deal, people, and you can play spot the straw purchase.

    FYI, I’m using talk to text out here and it’s dropping commas and strange words everywhere. And strange words everywhere.

    I’m kind of bored right now, so stop by and say hello if you’re here.

    Now this is getting interesting… I think there’s a guy there, talking himself into handcuffs.

    Edit:
    Sadly, he was not cuffed in stuffed. I think you be if you would’ve raised his voice anymore he would’ve been.

    See a dude in a Travis Kelsey jersey. Looking at him his playlist looks more like mine than a Swiftie.
