At least there's enough room in the aisles now to go around the funky ones.

Tanner is in Pueblo this weekend.
I enjoy going, I like the hunt for small items and once in a while I find some little scores.
Bag on Tanner all you want, and I'll be right there with you, but I've enjoyed the Pueblo version just about every time I've gone.
Crowd is different than Denver, and size is just about right, IMHO.
I like the layout there. We travel to the P Tanner a couple times most years. It's a decent day trip from the metro area, and nowhere near as congested. At the very least, it gets us out of the metro area, and I've probably spent more there than at Denver Tanner in the last 3 years.
Besides, visiting Pueblo is an adventure unto itself.
ETA: My "bag on Tanner" comment was directed at the general posters, not teamrico.

Crays, why I outta.........wait, didn't finish reading it all!!
I usually spend more money there due to the offset in gas and travel.
I have bought two guns there and usually pretty happy with the prices in Pueblo.
Looking forward to going Sat morning.
If we go, I'll PM you, and perhaps we can meet up there.
Always fun to put faces to names.

I was at the Tanner Sat around noon. Bought two old holsters, a Bucheimer Semi Shoulder for my 2" M&P K frame and a European belt flap for my Walther PP. I was looking for Apex Gun parts and couldn't find them anywhere. I went to the front desk and asked about Apex he said nothing like that in the computer, so I left. Richard you need better signage and let the people that run the place know where you are.
I keep hearing about all the people from here that go to the show but I never find anyone. I think the next show I'll make one of those signs that people hang on there guns to sell as they walk through. It will read "From COAR15 and Lost, Please Help"
Well those that complain about high prices at the Denver Tanner haven't been there lately. I was selling some guns at dealer's cost +$20.00 (2 tone XDS .45 and Sig Nightmare .45)
I used to go to the Tanner show frequently before they raised the price of admission. Mostly just to look around. Hardly ever spent money there. Couldn't tell you how many times I walked around with a thousand dollars in my pocket and didn't buy a thing. I did find a nice Ruger RedHawk in 41 mag once that was tempting. Couldn't quite get to the price I wanted that day. I told the guy if he still had it at the next show I might go ahead and buy it anyways. Went to the next show and that guy wasn't there and haven't seen him since.
