This is the power of the people. Deny the left access to your money and things will change. If you do business with a company, make sure it is not a leftist company. If it is, replace them and be sure they know why. I’ll pay a little more or deal with less convenience if it means I can avoid funding my enemies on the left.
NSSF Statement on the Eastern Sports and Outdoor Show

January 24, 2013 By nssfnews
We have just learned that Reed Exhibitions has decided to postpone the 2013 Eastern Sports and Outdoor Show.
In the days following Reed Exhibitions’ announcement that modern sporting rifles would be prohibited from the Eastern Sports and Outdoor Show, the leadership of the National Shooting Sports Foundation (NSSF) has been in intense, frank discussions with Reed Exhibitions management in an effort to reverse this unacceptable decision. These discussions reached an impasse.
NSSF is in no way affiliated with, nor does it participate in or exhibit at this show in any way. Reed Exhibitions does, however, manage the NSSF-owned SHOT Show (though Reed manages the SHOT Show, all SHOT Show decisions, policies and actions are made at NSSF’s direction).
Because of Reed’s recent actions, NSSF is considering all options regarding the management of future SHOT Shows.
Hahaha!! Excellent!
You f*** with one of us, you’ll deal with ALL of us... and our wallets.
Let your Congressional representatives know about this and that it is an indicator of how strongly we value our 2ND Amendment rights.
Here is what I sent to my reps:
The Eastern Sports and Outdoor Show, originally scheduled to start February 2 in Harrisburg, has been ‘postponed’.The reason: over 400 exhibitors pulled out—including Cabelas and a host of big name firearms manufacturers.
These exhibitors pulled out in protest of the show’s decision to prohibit the display of “assault weapons”. This wrong-headed decision of the show’s management, and the ensuing backlash from exhibitors and attendees alike who respect the 2ND Amendment should serve as an indicator to you of how strongly Pennsylvanians feel about ANY attempt by Obama or Congress to erode our 2ND Amendment Rights—which incidently—don’t come from government, they come from our Creator. Remember this when Senator Feinstein trots out her proposals to disarm Americans.
You should also know that here in Pennsylvnia, our state-level legislators are taking steps to enact legislation that would protect Pennsylvanians against ANY further regulation of firearms that comes out of D.C.
Here are some other people and products to put pressure on...Big list of Gun haters and grabbers.

They are creating a wedge between gun owners.
Gee, imagine this, boycotts do work.

My post of yesterday on another thread.

Reed had a ton of revenue lined up for this show, something north of $13 million. By postponing, they can hold onto the Vendors table money for awhile, but eventually they will have to refund since the show will never be held.
A new show will emerge next year, put on by some other company. Reed’s President will soon be leaving to “pursue other interests”
“We want to pander to the left and the crony capitalist politicians. What could possibly go wrong?”
good news ping
I hope the show organizers are happy and somewhat more educated on the real costs of Wussification.
“Suppose we gave a show and no one came?” POSTPONE!!!
Is Target Shooting no longer considered an Outdoor Sport?
Would somebody tell these morons that the AR is a 50-year-old design!
The AK-47 design is nearly 70 years old!!
They are hardly "modern" by any stretch!
We are winning. Do not give up the fight.
It is unfortunate that YOU decided to shove your political agenda down the throat of your clients and spit in the face of your customers. Welcome to the free market -- idiots.
LOL!
Nice to see the PC liberals lose one.
May it be the beginning of the end for them all.
