I was at the Greensboro gun show yesterday. First gun show I've been to in quite a while. I was looking at all the reloading supplies, all overpriced, when I came across a table with gas checks in bags. I said to my friends, hey look, gas checks. The guy at the table said I was the first person all day that knew what they were. I laughed and said I was a caster, he told me he had the best prices on gas checks (My first thought was I doubt he could match Blammer). He had one bag of .270 caliber for $25, started to get them but he didn't take plastic and I didn't have the cash. He told me he had a website, I asked for a card, he handed me one but said I'd need to write it on the back as the front side was for his other side job, collecting wild honey bees, I mentioned we could be friends as I was a mead maker. The website sounded familiar, I stopped him, asked if he was on Castboolits, he said yes, I said "BLAMMER!!! I'm moonie.", yup I met Blammer yesterday, and yes, he could match the prices...

Blammer, as a side note, at the end of my visit to the show I purchased a TC Encore 15" pistol in 270, so now I will def need more gas checks lol.

Haha, great story. I've often wondered how many folks from here i've rubbed elbows with and never new it.

looks like Ron Jeremy's stunt double from the waist up, doesn't he?

Blammer just helped me out with a couple things. Good guy.

Met Blammer for lunch in Asheville couple years ago.
He is definitely a cool dude.
I've met several more members, but I had to seek them out.

Great story. I also wonder how many others are part of cast boolits site when I'm looking around at the shows. At the show I went to yesterday I did recognize tsignal from this site.

I'm the show director for the Willamette Valley Arms Collectors gun shows in Eugene OR. I too wonder
how many of you ladies and gents come through the door and we never meet. Like two ships passing in the night.

I probably walked by you a few times when I lived in Springfield and went to the shows.
