Oh, wow. I haven't been there in FOREVER.

It seems they are, or at least were posted. No word if it was legal or not.

Like Drew, I haven't been there in ages. But the last time I went they did have a couple of "gun stores", but that's no longer allowed.

The only thing I've found on their website: "Don't sell or possess firearms on Traders Village grounds at any time." That's in the

I was just there a couple of weeks ago, and it appears to be prominently posted at the entry I went in. Big sign right on the booth that you pay your parking money at. I didn't scrutinize or measure the sign, but the appearance seemed OK to me. Why they would post that place is beyond me......Why I went there is beyond me.......

With the amount of people - upstanding and not so upstanding - I am surprised that they posted.

It's funny they are posted. About 15 years ago maybe a little longer there used to be 2-3 gun stores that operated out of there selling AR's, hand guns you name it.

When I moved here, a coworker described Traders Village as the kind of place you could go with a single worn-out sock with a hole in it, and you'll find someone selling the perfect match for it. That description alone has kept me hesitant to visit, but the 30.06 seals it.
