This is a new show, don't think they've ever had one there before.  I believe they are associated with RK shows, but not sure.

Those who would give up essential Liberty, to purchase a little temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety.

What are NE residents able to purchase firearm-wise over there?  Only long guns?
Thanks for the reply to whomever know.

You should be able to purchase anything.  You can only take possession of long guns.  Handguns could be purchased but they would need to be sent to your favorite Nebraska FFL for transfer.

Oh, and be sure to give them my correct address.  :)

That's a great idea!  I will need to think through how I could do that for Sunday.  I could probably go to pick up stuff on Sunday whether I have a table or not.  (Just thinking out loud)

Just got back from the Council Bluffs gun show...if you were thinking about going, DON'T.  It was small with more dollar store items instead of guns and gun related items.  $6 admission...save your money.

I just got back from there too.  I got some 9mm hollow-point ammo from a private seller for a steal of a price.  About the only other good deal was one dealer had some Glocks(17,19,22,etc.) for $475. 
The rest of the show consisted of way overpriced guns, with half of the show being the usual chinese tools/scopes/swords/camo/AK conversion CD's and other assorted crap that you would find at an "RK" show.  It was better than Westfair, but not by much.
