I don’t attend gun-shows, but fully support and understand those that do.
I couldn’t understand why a gun show wouldn’t allow “assault” rifles to be shown, until I saw that it was a British Exhibition Management company that was involved, and then it all made sense.
They need to be dumped ASAP.
Soon I expect to see the demonization of this industry to the point where it relocates overseas....more loss of American jobs, more stress on the economy, one more step to de-industrialize America, one step closer to Obama's goal of tyrannical communism for the disarmed American people.
I gather that it’s a British company of some kind that was sponsoring the show. It seems to be a case of ideology trumping common sense, given the type of people who would usually attend.
Is there some other audience to the extreme left whom they are worried about offending? Because this sure seems dumb to me. Stupid and dumb. You aren’t going to get a lot of effete metrosexuals attending such a show, I wouldn’t have thought.

I know I won’t be going.
The show organizer already has their money for the booth fees.
Good short term for Reed. Long term future business doesn’t look so good.
As Ben Franklin noted years ago, American gun owners better hang together or they will be hanged separately.
“Clearly, we strongly support the 2nd Amendment. “
Clearly they would make Goebbels proud with their lies, damned lies, and baldfaced lies.
IF they supported the 2nd Amendment, they would not have changed a darn thing!
So CLEARLY they are baldfaced lying in an effort to promote the current propaganda against the AR-15 platform.
The promoters should bill this as:
“THE LAST EASTERN SPORTS AND OUTDOOR SHOW”
In most companies 20% of the merchandise generates 80% of the Sales.
Same is true with suppliers. The top 20% of the vendors account for 80% percent of sales.
Yes, Scotty, it is dead.
The NRA/GOA and others should picket outside too
The bottom has fallen out on the Brittish company Reed.
Theses bloody Brits are finished.
Suicide with the jawbone of an ass!
Wanting to avoid drawing negative attention?
I think they really messed up in their approach to that.
Haha!
So sad, too bad.
Any news about these companies:

Liars.
The show had about 1200 vendors, according to media reports, and nearly 20% of them have cancelled plans to attend, including big names like Cabelas and the NRA.
The guy that runs their US operations lives in Connecticut. He graduated from Baylor and started his career in journalism. I would be extremely surprised if he isn’t a lib.
Also, they are part of Reed Elsevier Group, a huge media conglomerate, and they show strong growth in their exhibition business. Hopefully this will damage that growth a bit, but I strongly doubt it will see them change their euroweenie attitude.
Now suffering withdrawal symptoms...gladly...
Lots of smaller shows in south-central PA...Hopefully this allows them to expand their attendance base..
Even if those marxist scumbag brits recant, I'm not sure I'll go back to their Farm Complex show again. Too bad. Was definitely one of the best shows in the Nation.
