This reminds me of the story about the Yankee who was getting divorced and wasn't sure if she would still be his sister,RogueUSMC wrote:he said they are enforcing it and that it is valid because it is a private entity leasing it. He said it is not city property when it is leased.
There was a vender selling adapters for ARs that u put on a oil filter to create a ghetto surpressor. Another was selling brass knuckles as belt buckles.Dirthawking wrote:Wasn't just one officer. I counted four FW officers at front door, another four at side door, two in lobby, and several walking around each room. As well as several vendors asked if my firearm was unloaded with no magazine. But then again there was one vendor there selling switchblade knives and I overheard him tell one person they were legal to carry in Texas. A ton of people must have heard him tell that to plenty of people because not five minutes later they came over the loud speaker warning people that at this time switch blade knives are not legal and to please remove them from vending hall if you have one.....
Long story short, legal seems to be in the eye of the beholder.......

There were some decent deals, the pmags and the 100rds of reloads I thought was a fair price. I just can't see how some of these vendors sleep at night pricing this stuff so high. One asked me if I wanted to buy the 50rd box of Federal FMJ for $35, I said "nope, I got 3 boxes at Walmart last week for 13 bucks a box, good luck selling it."Dirthawking wrote:
Ammo was very high! But so was everything else. Sad to say, but right now it is cheaper to go to cheaper than dirt and shop.
No ammo or mags? What is this, MidwayUSA?....Dirthawking wrote:We were told no ammo and no magazines.

I don't see how they would have a legal leg to stand on if your gun was secured & tied, but you have a loaded mag/strip/speedloader in your pocket....
Both the Longview and Tyler gun shows are posted.nightmare wrote:Of course they're hypocrites. It's a gun show posting an anti-gunner sign.
It's cool to look but not worth 7 bucks to do so. I doubt I will go to any more for awhile till prices drop. I still cannot believe how much ammo still is.RogueUSMC wrote:I can't remember the last time I bought anything at a gun show...I just like to go and look...
