Went to the big gunshow for Corpus today. Black Guns were competatively priced and people seemed to be buying them. Tactical shotguns were also popular. The price of new pistols, in particular plastic guns, seem to have gone up about 5-10% in price since the end of October gunshow. Some decent prices on used S&W revolvers. People seemed to be buying new plastic pistols, as well as used pistols.
Primers were available, but not in great quanities. They were running $37-$45 a thousand for American brands. I was lucky to find 2000 Wolf LP for $32/1000. Powder prices ranged from average to high. .223 ammo was available but pricy compared to last month. Any kind of jacketed ammo was expensive. I sure am glad I cast for all my pistols and about half of my rifles. It was good to see Americans walking out the door with guns and ammo they had purchased. Sometimes with more than one firearm.
