    I just got back from the Crossroads of the West show in Reno - not impressed. I only found 4 Enfields (a No.4 Mk.1, a No.5 Mk.1 and 2 bubba'd Mk.IIIs), and no commerical .303 (I could only find 500 rounds of surplus .3030 in the entire place, but it was dated 1949 from Kirkee, India). Someone was selling a worse-for-wear Sten Mk.V for $400, and mosin nagants were way over-priced.

    i've had the opposite experience. one time i went and left with my 1903 Springfield and the next time i found a nice RC 98k.
