I will be there for a the morning and early afternoon on Saturday. I will probably be the only table with a PINK AR setting on it. Always happy to put names with faces!

Wish I could go, Crete is a nice little show.  I have RSO in my classroom tomorrow, (I lend it out to other instructors that need a classroom) and I teach a CHP class on Sunday.

Anyone got any feedback on today's show? I was thinking about going tomorrow but wasn't sure if was exactly like the recent one at the Lancaster Co Event Center, which seemed to be more bric-à-brac than actual guns.

Well... I guess Lincoln wasn't all bad. Just seemed to have a high ratio of "stuff" to guns. I just wondered if Crete was more of the same.

It might be a regional thing I'm not used to; the show I used to go to in VA had 1000 tables and you'd have to look hard to see anything on a table that wasn't a firearm.

I spent most of the day there. Alot of the same venors ypu see at every other show. I only went to Fremont this year since i was in the hospital for Lincoln... i will say it is much smaller the Fremont but not nearly as much traffic.

Morning and into early afternoon was steady, if somewhat light crowds, and it absolutely died about 3:ish!!!

I am set up towards the North-West section, the three tables across from the knife dealer.

Sales were decent for me.
