Albuquerque Gun Show — Local services in Albuquerque

Amanda,

I sat in your van for an hour before the show while you shared with me how Carlos mistreats you (this is not the first time) —how he used his belt, how he doesn't contribute, and how the show is yours and your daughter’s. I listened and supported you. Then you told me it was time to set up, got to get inside showed me the tabels, and I said, “Okay, I’ll go stage everything.”

With about an hour before opening, I set everything up. I stepped outside to change, and you suddenly tell me another vendor—someone who booked a few weeks ago—is here and I have to move. I told you I’d pay double to avoid relocating. We were about to open, and there was no way I’d make any money setting up again outside.

We argued, and despite everything, I moved. I reminded you I told both you and Carlos months ago that I’d be at every show except El Paso. Then you said this new guy booked weeks ago—that upset me because it felt like my commitment meant nothing. Why does someone else get priority to make money when I’ve been loyal from the start?

As I’m setting up outside for the second time—after we’ve already opened—Carlos walks up and tells me I have to leave and maybe try again next time. Honestly, I’m tired of your family drama bleeding into mine and not Icant pay my bills because of it. If there’s abuse happening in your home, don’t bring it into the show. I shouldn’t have to carry that weight for the last year or more.

I drove 12 hours and spent my last dollar to get there. But clearly, you didn’t care—not about my situation, my kids, or even the effort I made and now I have to make this...

This place is horrible I would give it zero stars. If I could they literally accused my husband and I of STEALING when we were walking around the gun show buying stuff supporting these vendors and bought two guns the previous day for or $1200 we totally got profiled, and I feel totally outraged by this incident, and whoever the owner is, should be very disappointed in their crew there was a big Afro American guy that was forcing us out with a baton and pepper spray my husband got hit in the face with that baton we have a picture proof and video this place is trash and so are the people that run it! I’m sorry, but this is straight up harassment of customers that are actually spending money on these people are so sad, worthless...

Honestly, a very lackluster experience. Very few options in quality firearms. Typical "custom" Anderson and PSA "all made in America" builds being charged for BCM prices. Most of the people behind the tables have very little knowledge of their pistols or are purposely disingenuous and are just pushing product. No Aimpoint, Eotech or Trijicon optics in sight. Overpriced ammo. I gave this 2 stars because there was like 2 older guys selling some pretty cool historical firearms. Sad to see how much MLG killed the gun...
