    Alright hunters, the season has started and now it's time to top off your gear with this new cap. We will have them at the 1500, but I can ship them to anyone desiring one. The back is velcro and the price will be $15.00.

    I am planning on going to this event for the first time. Anything I should know to make the experience better? How quickly do you have to get there or is it better to come a little later? Thanks

    I would suggest getting there early. You can at least get to the front of the line, but it moves pretty quickly. To make the experience better, I would suggest the following:

    1. Do not believe that vendors want to give away their products for the least amount of money you offer.
    2. Know that people will bump into you, but most will be apologetic.
    3. INGO is there, so don't miss us!
    4. Some people smell.
    5. Deals are there, but they are not written on big signs.
    6. Stop by every INGO advertiser.
    7. Do not take kids in strollers.
    8. If you are physically challenged, definitely come early or wait until Sunday morning when there are less people.
    9. Take cash!
    10. Don't try to trade your Glock and think you are going to get a $425 credit.
    11. Go with an idea of what you are looking for and ask if you don't see it.
    12. Buy the new INGO hunters cap.
    13. Don't tell your wife where you are going.
    14. Don't tell your wife where you had been.
    15. Don't tell your wife what you purchased.

    Will Que be wearing one at the 1500?

    Most definitely! :yesway:

    I disagree with 13-15. My wife encourages me to spend money.

    I'll be going sunday. So much stuff but so little cash. Most vendors dont like plastic either. They usually post a percentage increase in price if you pay with plastic

    bring cash, the atm there is expensive and some vendors dont accept cc, and others charge a fee to do so. most individuals also do not take cc

    Don't forget to coonfinger every gun you see and some twice.
    Don' wait till you get to police check to unload your gun. Saw that happen at the last show. No amount of doughnuts would have calmed that officer down.
    Please shower before coming to the show. It's for the greater good.

    You should come by our booth then!

    No upcharging for CC here.
    Expect to see more and more of that moving forward though now that legislation has been passed to make this act legal.
