Alas I am a bit too far away to go this year. I hope some people from Armorama can meet up and have a beer together.

I would love to get some good pictures from AMPS too. If anyone is taking any.

Cheers,
Jim

I still have my fingers crossed that I might get to go...All depends on the money!! Still waiting for an investment to come to term!! IF it does get to me before AMPS ...YOUPPI!! I'll be there and those vendors won't know what hit em! If not ...oh well maybe next year...I would hate to go to AMPS and not have a couple of thousand to spend! (hey I'll find a way!)

Jim, if I can come up with a better camera than I have .... like one with a macro len's I will gladly send you every photo I take. But until I come up with one I can't make a commitment at present. One of my brothers is a Detective with "homicide " and has some excellent equipment and lenses, and I'm trying to get him to part with his camera and a couple of the lenses, but he is being pretty stubborn about it. If I do get them I'll let you know.

Hi ,

I'll be there this year. My first national show. From what I've heard it should be great. I'll be bringing my Dragon Wagon with a Pershing load. You guys helped me with alot of information on this model. I hope you like it. Just so you know I'll be wearing a green t shirt that says HQ Hobbies on it. See you there!

Hey Warhog, you already missed 2003's AMPS. This thread is about 8+ months old. I guess you could be early for 2004's show!

I just woke up from an AMPS vendor room dream.. you know the one.. where the hall streches forever and all the vendors have loads of great looking stuff you've never heard of all at great prices... and here this thread is.

I'll be there this year with at least one thing..

Mike
