The hot sauce folks are great. The rubber band shooters? Got it.

I'm thinking about something unique. Anyone?

If you have a cheap shotgun that you don’t mind if the barrel gets ruined, look for custom shotgun shells. People make ones with tacks in them, metal shards, ones that shoot nets, fire and the more conventional rubber balls and bean bags.

[Wizdum]

Hi-cap mags and a good AR.

[tacticalogic]

If they have any AA-12’s, get me one.

Depends on what you are looking for.

[umgud]

Pick up some grenades, grenade launchers, machine guns (real assault weapons), 10,000 rounds of ammo........... Oh, be sure to use the gunshow loophole while yer at it.

Those custom shells are illegal in some places.

[Tijeras_Slim]

Beef Jerky and “Kill ‘em all let God sort ‘em out” T-shirts.

Usually you can get a deal on handgun magazines. I suppose if you want a simple, no frills bolt action deer gun, there might be a few cherries there. I read of a guy who bought a 458 WinMag for $600 bucks because the seller had no idea what he had and it wasn’t selling.
If you’re a doityourselfer, might be a good place to pick up a Saiga if you wanted to moddify it to 922r AK specs.

"look for custom shotgun shells"

Doesn't the Border Patrol use shells that deliver welcoming flowers?

[sergeantdave]

Seriously? I need a Tai Chi sword. I can’t find one.

Thanks.

I would look for any 1911 thats not too expensive, just a simple regular 1911 like Colt, Rock island,etc.

My most addictive hobby is working on a 1911 custom project.

[Celtic Cross]

Well, I'd look for vintage lever-action rifles and trapdoor Springfields, but thats just me.

Perhaps an antique Colt 'Peacemaker' as well.

[Wizdum]

Or this......its 12 ga. It's 14 rounds.

[DTogo]

Stripper clips in bulk can be a bargain. Most everything else is cheaper online or at your local reasonably priced gun store.

Should I duck?
