Like the title says: What did you buy at the Indy 1500? What deals did you see that you couldn't pass up?

Indy 1500 - So, what'd ya get? (pic heavy)

Had a great time at the 1500 today (as always)! Got to meet Que and Lovemywoods and picked up an INGO shirt. I went there intending to stock up on 7.62x39. Instead I got 60 rounds of ammo for my Argentine Mauser. So... you know what that means... Yep, spent money on something else. Got 2 more mags for my AR, but this was my "prize" purchase today. Ithaca Model 37 Featherlight 12 guage. This is identical to the very first shotgun I ever bought myself as a kid. Mine was stolen around 30 years ago when my house was broken into and I've wanted another one ever since. And yes, it's the kind you can slam-fire. From the serial number, it looks like it was made in 1962.

Thanks! Got a good deal and it brings back a lot of good memories. Still have to clean it up a little, but it's in pretty good shape for a 50 year old gun.

Ok, should have used purple.

I think anyone that has read more than a couple of your posts on the subject inferred the purple.

Box of 44mag to test my gun.
3 boxes for 44mag.
100 once fired 44 mag.
cleaning equip for 44 mag.

I had the cash to buy a gun, but for the most part I didn't see anything worth it. After awhile it seemed like I was looking at the same crap at a different table.

I hadn't planned on buying a gun, but I was pretty focused on what I was looking at (old milsurp mostly, but also the Ithacas). I think if you don't have some kind of plan, it can seem a little bit like what you describe.

sr22

Anybody have any of these available?

 

[Brando]

Sounds like ZX Gun and PSS have them

 

[rnmcguire]

I only bought a hammer spur extension for my Marlin 30-30 for $7. I did handle alot of 1911's today to help me decide which one I want. I looked at alot of ammo and didn't find any deals I can't get local.

Got an afg, holster, belt and an ammo can.

That's so cool - I recently picked up a 410 break action ~just for grins~ that is identical to the one I used to carry around as a kid.

150rds of Lawman .40S&W for $36. I enjoyed the price.

I had an old Mossberg bolt-action .410, but my dad bought it for me... loved that gun as well, but the Ithaca was all "mine".

S&W M&P9c I was also looking for a Sig P238 but didn't see any good deals on one. I'll be going back tomorrow to maybe pick up some ammo.

I finally found a decent deal on a Glock19.
