I do LOVE gunshows.

Acquistitions to date at the Indy 1500 gun show:

30 British 5-pocket 5.56mm bandoleers with snaps @ 90 cents each

100 M14 stripper clips, new, @ 35 cents each

38 M16 stripper clip guides ("spoons") @ 5 cents apiece. (And yes, I mean a nickel!)

15 M14 stripper clip guides @ $2.oo each

3 M-1 Carbine stripper clips @ 5 cents apiece.

10 M16 stripper clips for 8 cents each

5 Broomhandle Mauser stripper clips @ 8 cents apiece. (No I don't have a broomhandle Mauser but you never know . . .)

2 BAR 3 pouch magazine sections for M1956 belt (probably made for early ARVN) @ 10 bucks each

1 M14 recoil spring new USGI @ 5 bucks

And that exhausted my slender resources.

It was a pleasure to meet you at the show today. Looking forward to the book.

Keep up the good work.
