As lame as some people think the Austin SAXET show and venue is...truth is, i'd be a shame if the SAXET stopped visiting Austin. What's a big town without a proper gun show? Sure, the San Antonio shows rock but it's a heck of a drive for us, especially considering us northern Austin-ites. It's a 30 min drive south for me to cross the Austin city limits to the south from my location.
I haven't been to a gun show in Austin or San Antonio, but have in Houston. Do they have good attendance? I am more often interested in parts and accessories (most of the time) than individual weapons.

Just take Texas 130 tollway down to Buda - nice country drive with no traffic agggrevation.
