Location for the gun show this weekend
Is the Crossroads show inside the Coliseum (as usual in the summer) or in the livestock buildings?
Re: Location for the gun show this weekend
In the Livestock. They are featuring firearms that can be digested and still function.

The wave of body odor is bad enough at those shows with air conditioning. I can't imagine one in the agriculture buildings!
Re: Location for the gun show this weekend
Actually I've found that the B.O. is way down the last year or two. I guess the guys who complained about the cost of admission and parking and how they weren't going to go to the shows again were the ones with poor hygiene.
Even Mrs. Flash remarked about it a couple of shows ago.

Re: Location for the gun show this weekend
My girl friend stopped going with me to the shows due to the atmosphere! I told her it was from the gun cleaning products being used, she said maybe some of these people would smell a little better if they did use some Hoppe's No 9.

Re: Location for the gun show this weekend
Didn't notice any BO this time around...heat, $8 parking and $16 ticket must be keeping the riffraff out. This is the first gun show in years where I actually purchased a firearm, not just beef jerky. Picked up a Ruger Precision Rimfire from a Tucson dealer (Climags.com?) for $350 +tax...$50 less than even Bud's lists it for! AND, I was able to quickly sell the pistol upper and lowerI brought for a fair price, so it turned out to be the most productive guns how I've been to in years!

As I've been saying for years, there are a lot of deals to be had at the Phoenix Crossroads shows.
Mrs. Flash and I went last weekend as usual and found most everything we were looking for. Even had a friend give us two laser engraved Pmags.

Pro tip: Those foam ear plugs can do double duty as nostril plugs.
