Default CC at gunshow?

I am going to the york show on Sunday. Does everyone cooperate with requests to unload you weapons at these shows?. At HBG they did this. Just wondering if anyone ignores and walks right by being it's our right and all.

I generally just walk right past them, unless I have brought a sidearm I want to get work done to. I.E. night sights things of that nature.

I walk right on by! I think the check gun sign is for openly carried guns in the show area.

Besides, concealed means concealed! If they don't ask...I ain't gonna tell!

What RF said... walk on by... the unload thing is for firearms for sale. If they dont know you are carrying, you dont need to tell them.

I saw several people whip out their pistols at HBG when asked to disarm, like they were trying to see who could draw fastest. Must have known each other. Can't let your buddy outdo ya.

I don't know who they were trying to impress, thought it was kind of funny myself.

I never understood this. It's a fuckin' GUN SHOW! Why can't we carry a loaded GUN at a GUN SHOW? I don't see why I can't OC there, like I do everywhere else. Anyone care to explain?
