Gun Show posted no ccw

(1/2) > >>

Lindy:
Guess I was just naive to think that I was going to be able to saunter up to the Lancaster event center and attend the gun show with my shiney new ccw permit and Ruger sr40c on hip.  Asked the woman selling tickets about it ( after taking aforementioned gun back to locked vehicle) and she said it was for insurance purposes. I understand clearing the gun and zip tying the actions for open carry, but thought it would be different for ccw.  Does anybody know if it has always been posted?

bullit:
With one exception when they moved the show to the event center, has always been posted.  The "insurance purposes" is the typical cop out answer given at these shows. 

gsd:
There was people open carrying, but as far back as i can remember the event center has always been posted. Why they would hold a gun show in a posted location is beyond me, but it can probably be laid at the feet of spacial necessity.

RobertH:
almost every Fun Show i've been to has been posted.  i've thought about open carrying, but im just not man enough.

Lorimor:
The Ag Park in Columbus is posted but we carry open while in the building during the show and no one seems to get too excited about it.  By far and away the most dangerous place is the security table where guns are checked in and out.  The four rules are routinely violated.  It's scary.
