I agree with the above, and for $2 off admission to Bigtown/frisco you can sign up to the email deal at http://www.classicshows.com/

I've been to the Fort Worth one like 5 times and the Dallas one once and the Denton one once. They're all the same.

I have to say, the one time I caught on at waxahachie it was small but it had so many good deals I almost went broke. I mean screamin deals. At least on things I would buy.

I can't wait until it comes back to Denton. I didn't even get to go last time.

Thats OK means I do not have to walk as far with all those evil guns I probably will buy.
I finally decided to buy a PS90 and a FS2000. Since I couldn't make up my mind guess I will have to suffer with both.

Poor me.

I honestly doubt you will find those at the Denton show. But Ive seen stranger things.

They had the PS90 last one I went to at Denton but I bought another stupid AR 15 and another B model uzi instead. I was still not sold on the 5.7 round at the time. What was I thinking?! Its a great "hunting" round.

Cool, I haven't seen and PS90s anywhere locally (but then again I haven't been looking for one). And my dad had to order his FS2000 out of Michigan from some other dealer.

No doubt, a Steyr-aug is the next rifle on my list now that I finally have my Dragunov. Too bad the damn things cost over 3k. Oh well just like buying one gun instead of 2 or 3.

As far as the AR goes Check around at gun shows and look for a nice Rock River Arms entry tactical. Damn near as well built as the Colt at half the price, and about 100x better than a bushmaster IMO.

Speaking of bullpups, even though I'm not really sure it is considered one (if not I don't know what the hell it is). Does anyone here own a FNH PS-90? Or atleast shot one? If so are they worth a shit, the only one I ever held was at a gun show and it felt a little wierd. I do like the ammo it uses though considering I'll be buying a 5_7 on the 10th of Feb.
