Glad you could put the pass to good use. The weather is just awful today, I figured it would be busier than Friday.Went earlier this morning, walked around with the old man. Ended up leaving empty handed besides a few patches he picked up. A couple things caught my eye but nothing unlike what I've already got, so I talked myself out of it real quick. Definitely busier as we were leaving than when we got there, but not as crowded as the last one I went to.
Thanks again for the pass!

Oh dear gawd that rifle it tickles my stomach!
OK, as promised...Serious note on something from yesterday:
John (NRA recruiter) and I had a lengthy discussion with a young couple (30-ish) originally from Bangladesh. They currently reside in Michigan, not sure how they landed at the 1500.
More to follow...
OK, as promised...
A quick search of private firearms ownership and I found there are slightly more privately owned firearms in Bangladesh (0.40 per 100) than in north Korea AKA norkland (0.30 per 100)
So John and I are talking to people from a culture where no one owns a gun. Their English was very good, obviously well-educated people.
A couple things for sure: there is no doubt who we are in that booth. NRA-ILA and ISRPA on the tablecloths, NRA on the huge thing behind us. The other thing for sure: these people never met too many pro 2A folks.
I'd like to think we won over a couple new 2A supporters yesterday. They left with a much greater understanding of why our Constitutional Rights are so cherished, and how 2A backs up the other rights. How cases such as Bruen, Heller, and McDonald were so significant; and how being able to own different firearms for different purposes was a good thing.
I've worked a lot of 1500s, I think this was the best interaction with people I've had at a gun show.
This was a sold out show. All tables/spots were filled by vendors.I haven't been to the show for a couple years. The last one I went to had empty tables. Has it gotten any better? Thanks
