    While there you can check out the progress on the construction of the new swine barn. I look for the day in future when I’ll be posting, “this 1500 will be in the (sponsor’s name here) swine barn.

    The 1500 is of course, the full gun show experience. Who will be there? Spam can Mom? Flock of Seagulls? 1911 lanyard carry dude? The Man from Glad? Harley Quinn (DEFINITELY NOT Margot Robbie)?? Kill a commie for Mommie t-shirt guy with Kalashnikov t-shirt guy? Goths? The cast of The Hills Have Eyes? Extras from The Walking Dead? The guy who blamed me for the primer shortage?

    I just realized I left out this part: I'll be working at the NRA/NRA-ILA/ISRPA booth Friday, possibly Saturday or Sunday. Stop by and holler, I'll bump the thread. It's always good meeting INGOers in the wild.

    I hope I'm off. Anybody know if streets will be blocked off like last time?
    I don't get down 38th Street very often (1500s, Deer Turkey, and Waterfowl Expo, State Fair, that's about it) but being torn up for construction is the norm.

    T minus 2 days and counting! Haven't seen in a while: commie uniformed individuals (there were two) wearing commie gas masks.

    I will be there Saturday 7-1
    Not sure on if I’ll be there (Friday and) Saturday or Sunday.

    So are you going to be there ejecting live rounds out of unloaded firearms?? I’d use the laughing emoji but it’s really not funny.

    At gun shows I’m not at a booth: S&W Model 19, butt first, cylinder swung out, and yes unloaded :oldwise:

    There are always a few every day of the show. If it were up to me, I'd have a big red sign at the table stating all loaded firearms handed to officers are assumed being turned in for the officer's personal collections. Or just let me trespass them from the shows. Not like we have 8 signs inside and out stating no loaded guns in the building.

    My weekend schedule is in: I'll be at the 1500 (NRA/NRA-ILA/ISRPA booth) today and Sunday. Life is getting in the way for Saturday (I'm taking a nephew to a baseball tournament since there are more kids and activities than parents. Uncle Kelly for the WIN!)

    More to follow...

    KellyinAvon LIVE from the Indy 1500 Gun and Blade Show.

    THE BIG STORY: OK I really don’t have a big story I just like using that as an intro.

    The NRA/NRA-ILA/ISRPA booth is located just to the left of the main entrance. The main entrance to the exposition hall is on the west side of the building. The exposition hall is along 38th St. on the west side of the fairgrounds.

    Speaking of 38th St., yes, it is tore up all to hell with construction.

    The big bomb sign of Revolver Tactical is one aisle to the left of center. I ran into @paintball_addiction setting up. Speaking of Revolver Tactical @Bradsknives is in the house as well.

    The booth across the aisle has Glock 17 generation five Popo trade-ins night sites and one mag for $449. Glock 22 Opo trade-ins with one mag for $369.
