I am not able to volunteer, but I am curious if promoter of this show is going to allow CHP holders to enter while carrying.  Last time it was the typical "insurance" issue.

I imagine it will be the same' ol BS this time, the sad part is last time we were all told it was hunky dory and then we got there and signs everywhere.  So I'd say just play it by ear.

I was very disappointed in the last show.  Probably the smallest and worst gun show I've ever attended.

I didn't think it was too bad at all for their first show at that facility. They just seemed to have all of the tables scrunched together.

You should go to the Westfair show sometime... that one is a real joke, and the Missouri Valley show could fit in the average sized 2 car garage.

Since the event is in Lincoln it will probably be posted. DMV's, bus stops, parking garages, and most other city property are all posted by Lincoln ordinance.

I may be able to help on Saturday, I'll check what I have going on that weekend.

Yes, the Event Center does not prohibit legal concealed carry.  Used to, but took the signs down about 6 mos. ago.

What are we expecting here with the Big Buck Classic going on simultaneously?  Will there be many people there at tables or what?

I confirmed our table today.  Dan, since I am supposed to be in Omaha Sunday, can you be responsible for taking down our sign/holding on to materials Sunday at this show?  I can pick stuff up from you later in the week or Sunday eve if need be. 

The lady said she had to rent additional tables this time so I am hoping that means more vendors will be there...

Please come see us!  And have a seat at the table so I'm not there talking to myself all day Saturday! :)

Right at this moment I am hoping to feel better for work tomorrow. Hopefully I will not be sick this weekend.

I have been searching for the answer to this question, but I can't seem to find it anywhere.  Is there a charge for admission to the gun show?
