The Badshot gun shows are the only ones I’ve been to in years. The others charge too much for admission and once you get through the door, you’ve seen everything in thirty minutes or less. I like the big Tulsa show, but I wish they would do for four times a year instead of two.
The Tulsa show is great, but way too crowded and hard for old farts like me to get around in. I got tired of getting stepped on and pushed around. I went last year to get some rifle specific parts. I hadn’t been there in ten years. It looked like there were fewer dealers and more space in the aisles. My biggest problem on that trip was getting dealers attention. They had their noses buried in their phones and were oblivious to anything else going on. I walked away from several tables and they lost a sale because of it.
