Does anyone know if there will be "no legal carry" signs at the show this weekend? I remember reading that this was an issue at other shows.

The doors are posted with no concealed carry signs. Had to do the awkward look-at-the-signs-and-turn-around dance.

Just got back from the show.  Same old crap as the last several.  No reloading supplies, $25 Pmags, and tons of Chinese cutlery. 

One guy's selling foreign surplus ammo at decent prices, but no 7.62x39 unless you want to buy 1K.  Standard modern ammo was all very overpriced and in small quantities.

The two companies selling surplus gear were doing well.

I might have to take a drive to find a decent show.  Any suggestions?

You should have attended the Fremont show, I guess.   ;)

I was selling Pmags for $15 each, and had 7.62x39 and .223 by the 20 round box or case. sold all 2000 rounds of .223 and all(about 30) of my pmags.

I saw plenty good deals at the Lincoln show, a couple of them followed me home.   ;D
