Here is how we will use funds that are raised

Early August we headed west to San Diego to meet up with some Gun Channels members, go shooting & explore San Diego Gun Shops. Then north to L.A. where I'll track down the addresses of all the "Ring of Fire" manufacturers. Then headed back to Arizona to see how the van did on the mini-trip.  

The 3rd Leg of the Tour 
September 30th - December 5th
The third leg of the Gun Show Loophole Tour will take us North to Denver to a gun show where Biker Bob will join us on his return to the USA. then we will head south east to Tulsa, OK to set up at the worlds largest Gun Show in Nov. We will also explore the J.M.Davis firearms museum, one of the best. Gun Channels members will meet up in Tulsa for a machine gun shoot after the big gun show. bob will join us headed south to Texas for a few weeks and two gun shows as we explore the gun shops of Texas. We will then head back west to Arizona for the Small Arms Review gun show in Phoenix. Then we break and get ready for the 4th leg of the tour 
  • All further funds, go to upgrading the Tires, Engine & Drivetrain
