Make them lose money and give that business to real patriot's businesses instead, all at the same time!
After going to twice-a-year to these Farm Complex shows every year since the 90's, it is going to cause some withdrawal issues for me. Always one of the best shows in the Eastern U.S.
However, there are plenty of other PA shows all year long that should benefit from this fiasco.
That is correct. Reed Exhibitions manages SHOT for the NSSF. I already wrote to the National Shooting Sports Foundation to ask them to consider their ongoing relationship.
Yes, I want the NSSF to lean on Reed. IIRC, the contract with Reed is through 2014. I am usually an attendee at SHOT, rather than a distributor or manufacturer, but I wish everyone would contact the National Shooting Sports Foundation about Reed Exhibitions.
I didn’t really finish this story about the gun at Walmart. As I was leaving I ran into a guy I know who is now the sports dept. manager. I asked him to call me if he got another AR 15 in. He called me today and told me that had received one Colt M4 carbine. I left work immediately (thank God I’ve got that kind of freedom) and, to make a long story short, I bought the Colt (model number LE6920) for $1097. I’ve been bragging all day. They’re going for around $2500 if you can find one.
