That was a good, accurate, & fair review. Yes, the gun show was small but it looked like all of the available space was filled. It is Allen after all and the big show is coming to Dallas next weekend.

I did buy a few things.

2 packs of A-Zoom 9mm snap caps. (9mm snap caps are hard to find lately, except for those cheap plastic ones everyone wants a fortune for.)
1 book, "The Complete 1911 Owner's Guide".
1 laser sight for my rifle.

On my way home, I had to pass through McKinney. As I went through I remembered the new CTD that just opened up, so I made a little side trip to check it out.

Outside the store, I signed up for a shotgun giveaway. While inside the (surprisingly small) store, they were calling people's names and giving away free gifts. It wasn't hard to figure out where they got the names. I head them call my name, so I went up to see what they had for me. It turned out to be the exact same laser sight I had just bought at the gun show.

I guess that's what you call good luck, with a twist!

As I and a bunch of other "attendees" left, the guy asked if we had any weapons. I said, "Only my own." and went out.

One of the others jokingly said, "Well, that's it then, you can't leave!" I said, "Wrong answer. I have a piece of plastic that says I can leave!" He had a puzzled look for a few seconds, then I could see dawn breaking over Marblehead. He got a good laugh out of that.

I had a bag with some stuff I bought, but no weapons, other than my EDC.

When I went to the Big Town show a few weeks ago, they just checked to make sure I had a receipt for the pistol I had bought. I bought another pistol at the Greenville show last weekend, and they just looked for the yellow "dot" sticker on the gun case.

I think they're just trying to keep people from stealing the vendors' guns. I don't have a problem with it.
