There is a show at the Stout Field armory in Indy the same weekend. I'm guessing it will have some effect on the number of vendors at the Lafayette show.

Why do promoters schedule shows on the same weekend, knowing that it might lower the number of tables they could sell?

Do any of you guys have any info on an AirGun show coming up in southern Indiana?

 

[Kirk Freeman]

Air gun show???

I'm all ears!

I might head up from Indy to check it out (not too early though, I don't get up before 9am on a weekend unless someone is paying me).

But if you are going to grab a bite to eat while in Lafayette, there is really only one choice: South Street Smokehouse.

Anything else is just crazy.

Went to the show Friday afternoon. Nice facility, clean, good lighting,
organized well and heavy walk around security. Wish more gun vendors
had shown up but I was told more were coming in for Saturday and
Sunday. Not much in surplus, looking for ammo cans and did'nt see any.

My son and I went tonight and were dissapointed. Hopefully tomorrow will be better. They told us Friday was an "optional day" for vendors.

Same here. I may go back on Sunday to browse.

Show went well Friday. It's the best lit show around and the promoters really seem to give a **** about the dealers and visitors. There were a few empty tables today but they should be filled Sat and Sun. Seems to be a little more non gun stuff than I like to see. But I think that will change. I hope people will give this show a chance to grow we need a three day show besides Indy in the area. Hope to see you there. I'll be wearing my sometimes &*** #** in english isnt enough shirt.

Does ZX gun have a table at this show?

 

[cobber]

Everyone should stay away today. There won't be anything to buy there until Sunday.

Thank you.

Went this morning, was in the door about 9:15. About 2/3 of the total floorspace was used, plenty of space to walk around. Saw some decent deals here and there, typical gun show mix, Passed by a great deal on a remington shotgun, went back around after walking tables and it was gone.

There were some non gun vendors there, but only 1 or 2 tables that I owuld consider of the beanie baby variety. 2 vendors with survival-related food, always like to see that at the shows.

There was a good flow of people, I really hope they see the numbers they need to this weekend to draw more vendors for next time. This show is orders of magnitude better than the ones over at the fair grounds. Much better lighting.Took me and the wife about an hour and a half to walk all the tables, It was worth the price of admission.

Of course, after attending the show, I had to hit a few other shops in town and grab a bite to eat. Always like wasting half a day in Lafayette.

i will wait for the indy 1500

 

[Slapstick]

Going to head over there this afternoon. Anyone know if there are venders with reloading supplies?

 

[singlestacksig]

just went.. not impressed..

 

[mdale]

Went and not impressed also, It was more like a flee market with some guns. Better deals could be had at the local shops.

I will echo this....

You could buy some t-shirts and some hot nuts. Not a real big show.
