9000 in 12 ga sold while I was there; 175$. "Cheap price" for "someone else's reloads" (actually Carmen, ultra-famous machinist and gunsmith of Stanton, DE's reloads) was 3.33 a box mostly 20 ga. skeet loads. The late lamented did use nice clean once-fired hulls. I wouldn't plug them into a pump or autoloader but guess from the external appearance one might have a chance of coming thru intact and healthy. Bought some 9mm Makarov stuff for my CZ. Talked to Mike del G. and some others; sparred with the jerks a bit; bit of fun with Wally and his guncleaner. Gave me the pitch; I laughed. He says "You're laughing." Says I, "No, I'm actually crying; your speel always leaves me in tears." Says he, "Now I know you're full of BS." Usual tables full of overpriced pig iron.
