What's wrong with this picture?
depserv:
Somehow it just seems wrong. Absurdly wrong. Guns and ammo all over the place but those with a license to exercise our right to bear arms are barred from doing so. If it's caused by the insurance company maybe a different insurance company could be found. It's not my show so it's not my call; I'm just making suggestions. I'm wondering if Second Call Defense might offer insurance, or know of a gun friendly insurance company. Interesting that insurance that the NRA is involved with would not allow concealed carry. And if the insurance is so expensive, is that based in things that have happened at gun shows? I thought they were pretty safe.

You would be incorrect regarding the Event Center (outside of a Gun Show going on) .... certainly NOT posted "conspicuously".
FarmerRick:
Most of the larger gun shows I've been to in NE are posted as not allowing concealed carry including Fremont, Lincoln, Hastings, and I believe Grand Island(been a while).
Lorimor:
Columbus Ag Park, where the Columbus Fun Show is held, does not allow CC. It is posted. I have OC'ed there many times, which seems to make the club officers uncomfortable, so I don't anymore.
However, vendors can OC with no issues.

* ALL firearms MUST be unloaded and tied to prevent loading and firing – will be checked at the door.
* ALL ammunition MUST be in sealed containers.
* No open carry – No concealed carry – no loaded firearms -- except by Law Enforcement persons.
* No alcohol
* No black powder displayed or sold

If the NRA is acting as an agent for an insurance company that demands that events it insures forbid the bearing of arms, let's hope our adversaries don't find out about it, because it as much as says that the NRA agrees that so-called gun free zones are safer. I'd be interested in knowing why the NRA chose that insurance, and if there are any other viable options.
