Well, its Gun Show Time at the Market Hall in Dallas and was wondering does anyone know if its off limits to carry? I remember about 5 or 6 years ago when my cousing was carrying there was something about it but I really couldn't remember. I appreciate the info. thanks

Scooter03,

When is the Market Hall gun show? I would like to go to it.

I apologize about the link, it works for me, and dont understand. All i did to find it was google search Dallas Gun Show. the first link that came up worked.

Use this link and then browse for the correct show:

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.

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

Yep - all the DACA shows have a 30.06. .

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

I will be there also.

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

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.

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.

I'll be there next weekend, naked (unloaded). Denton County Sports Association has 8' table in soutwest quadrant. IIRC, 2'nd isle in from the west wall, maybe 40' east of a large overhead door. Y'all drop by and introduce yaself.
