    Default Hey Springs and Springs area guys -

    I have been seeing some ads about a gun show being held on June 24 & 25 at Freedom Financial Services Expo Ctr. located at 3650 N. Nevada in the Springs.
    Has anyone in the Springs and Springs area ever attended one of these shows at this location and if so, what was it like - some actual firearms and shooting related stuff or mainly jerkey, toys and junk?? This should perhaps be posted down in the gun show section but it will get a lot more feed back up here. Thanks.

    I've been to it. It's a good mix of stuff. I did buy 1k of 9mm and an FNS from it. There's a few accessories vendors and a few firearms dealers, but not as many as the Tanner or Prospectors shows.

    Hey Bob,

    I have attended that show a couple times, its pretty decent. Most of the usual suspects are there. I would say just as good as Sertoma.

    I think it's the worst show in town. Expensive to get in, mil is not free. Lots of crap that no gun related. I only once a year to this show, if even that.
    Errrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

    Well damn, one guy says it is decent and another guy says it's the worst in town. Now, I just don't know if it's worth the 300 mile round trip to check it out myself. Oh, how "expensive" is the admission and maybe they will have a senior rate for the admission.......

    RK show is crap. Sertoma's not great but better than the arts and crafts show.
