Very true!Better off making the rounds of pawn shops around. No entry and some have quite a few guns. You may even get a deal.

Legit and worth the entry + parking fee, IMO.honesty I just like to look around at a wide selection and actually get to see them in person, I typically scour the internet for the exact gun I want and wait until I find it for a decent price! But I hate buying a gun without actually being able to see a model of it and hold it in my hands first.
A TGT meet up is a better deal these days.
You get to shoot the guns also.
Hang around till April.

Yogi Bera (sp) Lives!Nobody goes to shows anymore, they're WAY too crowded.
Look fir the Premier Gun show site. They have a schedule. Drove by one in Allen yesterday.
I have yet to see a decent deal on a firearm in a pawn shop!
I still can't get over the one that told me the Romanian AES-10 they had was "new" (it clearly was a parts build) therefore the price was "non-negotiable!"
To be honest, half the time I am surprised the serial number isn't scratched off!
Worth the drive for a good German lunch and some cold brews.There will be one here in the big town of Fredericksburg December 19 and 20. Parking is free, but there is an entry fee, and you can visit THE Hill Country destination, only 90 minutes or so from Austin. Let the girlfriend wonder the shops downtown, you hit the gun show (takes about an hour to see it all) and then the brewery for a few cold ones. Have as good German Lunch at the Auslander.

Exactly...went to the SAXET show in San Antonio this past weekend and was surprised at the inflated prices found on some weapons and especially ammo. My enjoyment came from just walking around the venue and looking at the wares.I would not recommend you waste your time going to gun shows these days. Mostly a bunch of overpriced stuff with people trying to sell guns and ammo at highly overpriced levels to see if they catch some desperate people willing to pay ridiculous prices.
Hey Y’all!
pretty brand new to this forum, not sure the correct place to post this but would like some insight!
I’m from a SMALL town in northern Minnesota (think population sub 400) so never grew up around any gun shows even remotely close to me.Have always wanted to go to one and think it would be fun thing to do for my girl and I.
I was wondering if anyone could provide some recommendations as to the best gun shows in the area? Preferably being one that’s coming up in December/Jan/Feb and relatively close drive from Austin.
TIA!
EDIT: I don’t plan to buy there, just looking for a good show with a wide selection so I can browse my options and actually get to see something in person before I buy (I usually buy my guns online)
