1500: If there is a long line you can wait INSIDE

[bgcatty]

I had the chance to speak with Dan from the 1500 today and he wanted to make sure I let INGOers knows that if there is a line it will run into the -Blue Ribbon Pavillion- so that those who want to get into the show don't need to stand outside in the cold.

The 1500 realizes it's not nice waiting in line in bad weather for an hour plus like last show. I don't think the crowds will be as insane this time but the 1500 has done something about it so if you have to wait it will be more comfortable.

Pass the word along!

So why don't you tell Dan to get his act together and open up more ticket sellers and get the line moving faster. But nooooooo, he only has what 3 or 4 ticket sellers inside to handle sales?

You do realize that was in March?

Holy cow! That was in March and 2 months later the line is STILL wrapped around the building!

No way I'm going this year.

The thread started at the last show, but the show is today, May 31, 2013 so it is possible there is a long line.

How much were the XDS going for? May have make a trip down.

Just got back from the show. The crowd really was not too bad. Got lucky and parked i by a couple of rows in front of the building. Wow ammo prices have jumped. I had recently joined Atlanta conservation club and wanted some ammo and a stand. I was also thinking that I might want one of the newer smaller concealed carry 9mm. Well after paying for the ammo I decided to wait. Hope everyone that goes has a good time!

Why does no one ever follow this and curve the line into the building

 

[bobertathan]

Thats cool. When is the next Show going to be?

 

[bobertathan]

Yea the whole ammo scare of 2012/2013 is gone but ammo prices from what I am being told from local gun shops will not be going down and any shortages in store are the result of the flee market booths that buy them all up and double the price when it hits their booths.

Hopefully smaller lines @ 2 pm today! It's my only day off!

Line is long, but it moving

 

[Kirkd]

Took 25 minutes to get in

I got there at 9 a.m. this morning and walked right in no wait.

 

[Fishersjohn48]

If I remember right from 3 months ago..... It was pretty light for a Friday.

 

[dontcha]

Man, I won't stand in line for 10 minutes to do much of anything. It better be the second coming of Jeff Cooper. then I MIGHT stand there for 20 minutes, on a really slow day.

 

[h20addict3231]

I plan on going later this afternoon, to get a deal on some ammo/cans?

 

[zippy23]

I used to love going to the 1500, but anymore, I try to stay as far away from there as possible. The sheer amount of people that show up, and the headaches involved just aren't worth it anymore to me. Most of the time you cant even turn around. I'd much rather go to a C.I.G. show. Besides, I spend too much at the 1500's anyways. lol

Holy thread revival batman! And yes, I tend to agree.
