    Thanks! I'll probably go out on Saturday. Last one was pretty decent.
    This is the first one that CIG has had at the Danville Armory. It should be decent, only a few vendor tables are still available and we usually book a few in the last couple days before the show.

    Who ran the previous one and I take it you are with CIG?

    The previous Danville show was run by a promoter I had never heard of before. As far as I know, that was the first show they ever did.
    I am a vendor at most CIG shows and the promoter rents the tables from me, that's why I have knowledge of the number of tables. CIG promotes more Gun and Knife shows in Indiana than any other promoter, they have one practically every weekend.

    Gotcha. I always presumed that the facility owned the tables and chairs. I didn't know an outside vendor supplied them. Thanks for the info.

    Interested in any reports members may have on this show.
    In case it's worth it for us (INGO) setting up a table next year.
    I won't be able to attend and see for myself unfortunately

    Talked to Danny Tuesday and got tables I don't know if there's any left now. The Danville crowd was great at the last show I did there.

    I forgot how small the Danville armory was. Decent little show though. I should have had more cash! I wanted to buy 4lbs of pistol powder and some more projectiles but vendor didn't accept plastic. I usually carry plenty of cash to gun shows but spent all of my ready cash on a new fence in the back yard Tuesday. At least the pup is happy with his new yard and the freedom it gives him.

    Just got back and wasn't impressed. Seemed pretty dead and the tables had "the same old stuff". It seemed a lot of the vendors from the Stout Field shows were there. Saves me a trip next weekend to Stout Field!
