I've skipped the last two years due to inflated prices and by the time I pay for gas, parking and entry there's no reason to go. Now that we appear headed for a buyers market it might be worth the trip again.

I go every year, got a hotel set up, I drive from Havasu, always fun....
|
|
What are the dates again? I know that I'll be there and maybe Rich _V Junior possibly.

Hopefully no accidental discharges this year.
Did anything ever happen with the one last year? Anybody charged with anything? I figure the guy must have lived, otherwise the news would have been all over it. |

I'll check it out thursday eve, and then walk it from 7a till they open the door to the masses....

I figure the guy must have lived, otherwise the news would have been all over it. View Quote Grandson bought a Tokarev. Grandson hands it to Grandpa. Grandpa drops the mag, does no chamber check, and zip ties the trigger and gun goes bang. Grandson gets shot in the back, bullet nicks the spine and punctures a lung and exits into the floor and somehow yet miraculously strikes no one else. Every guy selling first aid kits run over with outdated bandages and luckily there was some EMT's right there and a trauma surgeon just 20 yards away to treat the kid. Cops showed up and closed that area off. Dan Shea talks as if he was right there. Dan Shea was no where near the incident and reported the story wrong. I know who Dan Shea is, I've been to his shop multiple times in Henderson, NV. |

Nevermind. I found them on the actual crossroads site. |

I'm torn.
$18 bucks to get in, and how much to park? Also, since the libtards in Kalifornistan passed their massive gun control prop I expect hordes of Californians to be there buying up every last round of ammo. On the other hand, I really want a CZ P-01 Omega, and that's probably the best shot I have to actually paw over one. |

I'll have a table in the SAR building in my (well, at least anticipated) normal spot --- about mid point along the back [long] wall. I'll be incognito --- dressed like a Bear. |

Hmmm, decisions decisions. I have some extra scratch laying around. Wondering if it's worth the drive up from Tucson...
Just went to a local show earlier this month. The most reasonable prices were large dealers sadly. Still walked out with a FNX-T though it was ~ going street price. |

Wont be there this year either. Got me another elk hunt that week!

You can't look at that entry fee and make a judgement.....
What if someone said..... hey, go check out this really cool play for 3 or 4 hours and leave your wife at home. You can even purchase cool stuff....... priceless. Just get your value/time out of that entry fee and explore! |

Its not as good as it used to be, but if you like NFA stuff and random oddball gun stuff, definitely worth going.

I'm really tempted to buy a golf ball cannon from I believe it's NATO ammo supply
|

Well, now it turns out I will be working the show. So, that will be fun.
