Ahead of another "Crossroads of the West Gun Show" at the Cow Palace in Daly City, two California lawmakers are moving to ban gun shows at the state-owned facility.

The Cow Palace is owned and operated by a branch of the California Department of Food and Agriculture that puts on fairs and expositions.

A Cow Palace Board of Directors meeting agenda item lists a three-year contract for Crossroads of the West Gun Show that shows a rental fee of around $5,000 per gun show with "$110,000.00 per year based on $10.00 per patron vehicle."

The website promoting the gun show scheduled for June 9 and 10 states that "kids 12 and under are free."
