Any of you guys know where I can find a north Texas gun show. I have never gone to a gun show, but I think I would really enjoy going.

Here's a good link for Tx gunshows. I prefer going to the Ft Worth shows in the Will Rogers Center.

Head east on 30 from W/ford to Montgomery st. Exit right and head north about a mile to Harley st. Take right .1 mile to Will Rogers Convention Ctr. There is a gunshow going on right now. I went yesterday, bought lotsa stuff, they are still running it today and today is the day to get some smokin deals as vendors will be more desperate to rid their stock so they dont have to pack it all back up and haul it home.

Depending on where in W/ford you are, you are probably only about 45 minutes tops from the gunshow.

Shoot me a PM when you're going; most likely I'll be there also.

Leave your gun at home, or lock it up in the car.

Here's another gun show site. These shows are one of the ones down in S. Central TX, but there are some shows listed in NOTX.

My first chance to attend a gun show will be in early November. I see they have one listed for Nov. . I'm going to see if I can find my wife a .380 pocket pistol at a decent price.

I would recommend a revolver for the wife. Picked up a Jiminez .380, got a very good price on it, but it was sticky on the trigger pull. Spent $40 having my local gunsmith rework it and it is smmmoootttthhhhh. But wife wants a point and shoot. No safety, etc, so a S&W is her weapon of choice. And, yes, she hits what she shoots at.
