Full description and what we offer

Crossroads of the West has been running gun shows since 1975, attracting more than 500,000 visitors annually—more than any other gun show operator in the country. They operate a rotating schedule across four western states with events designed to serve everyone from occasional hunters to serious collectors.

State	Venues
Arizona	Phoenix, Mesa, Prescott Valley, Tucson
Utah	Logan, Hurricane, Sandy (Salt Lake City), Spanish Fork, Ogden
California	Bakersfield, San Bernardino, Costa Mesa, Ontario, Vallejo
Nevada	Las Vegas, Reno

Each show features hundreds of vendor tables covering firearms, ammunition, accessories, and related gear. Weekend events run Saturday 9am-5pm and Sunday 9am-3pm. The company publishes a full calendar with advance notice and offers discount coupons for attendees.

The Scale: With 500k+ annual guests, these are genuine regional events—not small local shows. Vendors and customers report this is where serious buying, selling, and networking happens.

Crossroads has fought legal battles to keep shows operating. In 2023, they won a federal court ruling against California's restrictions on firearm sales at state properties. Judge John W. Holcomb ruled that state agencies cannot enforce bans on firearms or ammunition sales on state property, clearing the way for Crossroads to return to the Orange County Fair & Expo Center in 2024.

They're also monitoring federal regulations affecting private firearms sales and work with attorney coalitions defending Second Amendment rights.

The company provides detailed regulatory guidance for different states, including California precursor parts rules, Nevada sales tax permits, and federal ATF policies for interstate shows. They maintain vendor information, ticket policies, and customer FAQs on their website.
