Just wondering if there has gone and what they are thinking. We are going tomorrow. Sense COVID the show seems to have lost some of the larger companies that use to come.
 
I have not attended since 2017 or 2018. Although still officially undiagnosed, it seems I've developed a reduced tolerance level for patrons blocking the flow of traffic while talking with friends and eating funnel cakes. My therapist has recommended I avoid such gatherings out of concerns for their safety

Exactly why I won't go on a weekend, I'll probably go Tuesday or Wednesday.
 
Went to the show was a little disappointed. No Remington, Winchester, Sitka, Dsg, or any reloading equipment or supply (except Barnes)
 
I went Saturday the first day 🤦‍♂️, big mistake. I still can't understand why guys walk around carrying backpacks bigger then I use to hunt elk with.
 
I just got back home from the show this afternoon. When I go, it's on Monday and Tuesday to avoid the weekend crowd. I thought yesterday was more crowded than Monday. Remington, Winchester, and companies like that haven't been there since the first year the NRA took it over. Sierra, Barnes, and Redding was there this year.

I will keep going back every year.

I spent all day Tuesday there with a hunting buddy. The show was lightly attended, isles were relatively open. It was great for attendees but didn't look too good for the vendors & outfitters. Some regular venders were obviously missing. My gunsmith normally has a booth, but he wasn't there. I was hoping to see a number of other rifle builders there but that didn't happen either.

I was disappointed to see that the beer stands that are usually located here & there were absent. I could only find one location that sold beer. The cups got smaller, and the price increased to $10 for a Yuengling or Bud light. Not a big deal but we dropped $60 for beer which is ridiculous.
