Come out and visit us! The show is much better than the fall one, tables are spread out more and attendance seems a little better so far!  We'd love to see you!

Any good stuff at the gun show?  Besides the NFOA of course.

Did they put up any "No CC" signs at the event?

Thanks,
Fly

We had a good time at the Lincoln Show today. Great to work with Jesse and Terry. Got to meet some other members as well. Thanks for stopping by and introducing yourselves.
Like Jesse said, it was a better show this time. They had it spread out and organized.
Well off to bed, tomorrow it's on to the Classic in Omaha.

Preliminary count of registrations is 93 new members from this show! Thanks to those who came out to support us! Saw a lot of friendly NFOA faces, talked to the Treasurer for the UNL Rifle club, had a lot of fun talking with Gunscribe Sunday afternoon! See you all at the next one! 

Also I talked to the lady who runs the show.  Her insurance through the NRA requires her to post the no CCW signs.  She was open to the idea of trying a different insurance that wont require it, however it was her understanding that there were no other companies who provide gun-show insurance.  I have a hard time believing this is true, I am sure I have been to gun shows that WEREN'T posted.  Does anyone know who I could talk to or any other gun show runners who are CCW friendly so I could call them and ask who they use for insurance? Need to do some research and maybe we can help her get those silly signs down.

I call BS.  There's no way the NRA would support a company that's anti-CCW.

Thanks to the guys that were there manning the table, both were friendly and very good PR for us.  Finally got two of my friends to sign up.

yep, it was a good show.  there was a lot of guns and knives or whatever else you needed/wanted.  as for deals..... i didn't see much.  AR's and AK's were still pretty high (to me that is).

i did buy a tactical vest.  so i didn't leave empty handed.
