What did you buy at the Fall 2012 Creek??

[42rocker]

So what did you buy at the Creek this year (Fall, 2012)???? Hopefully you will not tell us how you ripped someone off or whatever. Those posts I'm not interested in. Good Fair Deals one thing, rip offs another. Of course don't post things you should not talk about like buying Full Auto stuff....

What did I buy at the creek, well filled to the top of the back seat we had.

1st ammo some 7.62r and 7.62x39

2nd Scoripon parts kit, always wanted one.

3rd 1903 Springfield stock and top grip. Got a nice deal on a super sweet stock. Have one that someone used 5 wood screws to attach a scope mount to the side. And they also cut it off at the front of the stock and more, sad story.

4th Rear sight and some small parts for above 1903.

5th Got to pick up my mg34 mountain lafette that I bought from gunbroker.

6th Several BA extractors with BA marked hook.

7th Got a 1919a4 wrench still in the box.

8th 2 t-shirts and a hat. Free stuff, Thanks.

9th Couple of mg34 cut up receivers.

10th A few more cut up parts for above receivers. Hopeing to mate everything for a nice weld up.

11th 1919a4 Springs from Allen.

12th On the way there picked up a few mg42 stocks from Dan, THANKS AGAIN.

13th One of the mg34 tansport boxes used to ship mg34's to the Portuguese with 3 mg34 barrel carriers.

14th A Deckungswinkelmesser from JBAUM, Thanks John.

End of part one

part two

15th Also received there some ordered front mg42 anti air craft sights (new repros) to go with some original German rear anti air craft flip up sights that I have.

16th Also received lots of 1919a4 top covers parts to complete some top covers.

17th Some well marked German mg34/42 starter tabs.

18th 4 mg42 lafette's of which I believe 2 are German and 2 are yugo. Thanks for the info JBaum.

19th And a few other small parts. And I'm sure that I forgot a few things. Bought some Canadian coins there also. Also some 1919a4 booster's and more 1919a4 parts.

20th Most important had a Great Time as I got to spent several days with my son and got to camp at the Creek with him and stayed next to some nice folks. And met a lot of super folks. Also got to talk and learn a few things. Thanks Everyone. Looking forward to going next time, 4th trip. Still have not stopped at the full auto machine gun part of the shoot and still missed the pro shop there.

So what did you bring home????

That's quite a shopping list!!!

Going to the Creek is on my bucket list, but being in the UK, finances and time have not so far lined up together!

That was not a shopping list, that was what I bought. I could not find several items on the shopping list. Also did not list many of the small parts that I picked up. Anyone need any small parts? I've made it over the pond and into England a couple of times. You just need to plan it and do it. Good Luck in getting things home. I guess that you could try the mail of course.

That stated DID anyone other than John of German books and Dan of Angola Armory and Folke Myrvang of the MG34/42 part 1/2 book and myself Tim 42rocker go to the creek????

I was there all four days, picked up some MG34 & MG42 parts but nothing out of the ordinary.

[42rocker]

MP44 was there also. That makes 5 of us from this site. That's a start.

I didn't see this post until today but I am a regular to the creek show.
Wed through Sun. Bought a Vickers tripod, a M07/12 partial kit, Vickers accessories, WWII British 303 ammo in the wooden boxes, books from Mr. Baum & Dolf, and a slew of small items.All in all it was a good show.
Hope to run into a few of you guys in the years to come, I'm still working on my "shopping list".

Nothing. Didn't go. Worked and made money for my next conquest.

Still have both my NFA guns and hosted the Red Wing MN MG shoot and had a GREAT time. We had FOUR vehicles to blow up this year. Got to try out my new M-92 Yugo SBR AK-47 (semi) and that lil' toy was fun.

ive never been to knob creek what is it like

[JBaum]

Enough cartridges are fired on the firing line that the empty brass would half bury the average house. Ammo for sale by the crate or pallet. Flame thrower, mini-gun, cannon, automatic pistols, blowing up a refrigerator, a machinegun gun show, machinegun rentals, jungle walk, shooting competitions, and a Huey helicopter available to ride in. There is no other place like it. It can't really be explained, it must be experienced.

[K98dkmauser]

sounds like my kinda place

[42rocker]

John, you did not tell him about the camping area did you?? Opp's I just did -- Well there is the camping part of this also. Best word that I could use is interesting. Very Interesting.
