    Two stories I heard today:

    Listening to a guy at the local gun store today (not the most reliable venue), he says that the ATF was harassed into leaving the Costa Mesa gun show this weekend and that several AR's were confiscated at Burro canyon. Can anyone verify either event happening?

    I have personally taken AR's to Burro Canyon! I can tell you, they are OLL friendly! Second, I dont think I have ever seen LEO's "scouting" the area! Where did you hear this?? Turners West Covina?

      I have seen local PD cruising through Burro, but I always thought they were looking for known prior felon gangbangers shooting there, who are now "prohibited" persons.

      Maybe the AR's were illegally configured? Seems most of the LEO in that area know legal from non-legal.

        Shoot my AR at Burro all the time without any problem. And if the ATF were run out of the gun show who ran them out?

                  Probably so did the ATF. Lots of both kinds of junk at gun shows.

                  Seriously, how do you drive out the ATF from a gun show? Sounds like a load of crap.

                      Well I guess both stories were just that stories of fiction! I kind of figured that was the case, but wanted to know if anyone had firsthand knowledge either way.

                          Why would you even post garbage like this, what a waste of bandwidth. If most used common sense before posting we would all be better off, then again, common sense is not so common.

                            Hey thread crapper. I heard something that had a possibility of being true and if so, would be of interest and concern to myself and I would think others on this forum. I hope it turns out to be false, but if not, I want to know. As I'm sure many of the forum members attend both venues, someone may just have firsthand knowledge to confirm or deny the stories. So go back on your medication if you can't play nice.

                            Thanks for exemplifying your own statement: "then again, common sense is not so common"

                              I bought the shamwow and it sucks at drying cars. I think the only good use you will get from it is drying your dog which I don't have. Now I've got to get a dog to put the shamwow to use. Didn't the shamwow guy just get arrested recently?
