Use this link and then browse for the correct show:

http://www.aubreyturner.org/gunshows/index.php

However, I found this link:
http://www.dallasarms.com/rules.htm

And it states that even CHLs have to have their guns cleared and tied before emptying. :roll:

At the last Market Hall show there was a proper 30.06 sign posted. :???:

Yep - all the DACA shows have a 30.06. :sad:.

I'm still going to be there - much better than the tiny Ft. Worth shows.

Is dallas Market Hall owned by the city or state?
If so, I think I read here that a 30.06 sign is improper, as a lesee of city property cannot impose restrictions that the property owner cannot impose.

Or am I wrong again :roll: :lol:

It is private. It was founded by Trammell Crow, and is operated by Market Center Management Co.

It is properly marked.
You CAN carry, however you have to have your action ziptied open.
They may keep your ammo or magazine, I am not sure.

Interestingly enough, they have a 5gal water bottle at the door, with a sign on it that reads "Ammo from unloaded weapons" implying that the ammo was removed from guns stated to be "unloaded"

It's not Market Hall or the management company that owns it

The show currently in residence sets the rules.

When the gun shows are there, they post no carry signs, when the jewelry shows are in the exact same building, carry is allowed.
Do you know about the TEXAS State Rifle Association?

True, only so long as they make a rule that the Market Hall and/or its management company could also make. If the Market Hall were government property, they could not enforce a 30.06 sign by law, so neither could their lessees. Since the Market Hall is private, apparently, this restriction doesn't matter: the lessee is imposing a rule the owner normally doesn't, but could, impose.
Remember, in a life-or-death situation, when seconds count, the police are only minutes away.
