By the time I pay for parking and tickets to get in, it gets expensive. IMO, City of Fort Worth greed killed the show.
+1
Used to hit the “big four” as we used to call them for years, Ft Worth, Bob Norman Ft Worth (or whatever it’s called now) Market Hall and Big Town. Really got some good deals over the years but that slowly trickled to a stop and I can’t remember the last firearm I bought at a show.
If I was looking to buy a new pistol I could see going to a show, to be able to see all the different models and be allowed to handle them.
I will say you can get some pretty good smoked cheese an’ jerky at the show though
