Default USA Carry Shot Show Coverage - Updated Pics 1/29/09

We will be attending the Shot Show this year and wanted to start a thread where I'll be posting any pictures and updates to while I'm there. If there's something in particular you'd like us to check out, post it here. This will be our first Shot Show. If you are attending, look for us wearing black USA Carry shirts and say hi.

I'll be there the whole weeked. Can't wait. It's always a great time. Watch the photo taking though. Unless you have a press pass, taking photos on the convention floor can get you kicked out.

I wish I were able to attend what may very be the last Shot Show weekend, now that Obama is about to take office. Hope you enjoy and please don't take it for granted.

I seriously doubt that the Shot Show is going anywhere. Here is a brief history of the 30 years it's been around...

http://www.shotdirectory.com/images/...T_Timeline.pdf

Quote:
The first SHOT Show was held in St. Louis in 1979 – with attendance at 5,600 and square
footage just over 52,000. In the 27 years since, SHOT Show acceptance and attendance have
skyrocketed – attendance in 2005 was 24,655, while the square footage topped 569,000.
We’ve all come a long way. And thanks to you, we’re still growing!

Yea, I don't think it'll be going anywhere.

I'm already here. It should be a good show. I've been going for almost 30 years. During the Clinton times the show did fine.

I won't be in town until late tomorrow night, but I will hit the Conv. center early on FRI. Just packed all my stuff where I can grab it and go tomorrow.
