Firearm owners Against Crime (FOAC) will be setting a info booth there with volunteer FOACvistS helping to educate gun owners about their firearm rights, along with free information on firearm laws.

Kim Stolfer will be there Sat morning to answer your questions on pending firearm legislation or your firearm rights.

Sunday morning is the FOAC meeting so Kim has to be there.

As someone who helps plan major events (a 5000 person convention, among other things), I can tell you these shows hurt each other, and the timing wasnt all that great. Holiday shopping is almost over, lots of people are broke, and running 2-3 shows the same weekend... your going to have 1/3 the crowd.

Don't forget they vendors can't be in two places at once so they have to choose where they go. means Less selection at any given show.

Sunday morning with the black ice on the roads, so it was really slow in the morning with most people not coming to the show till noon - 1:00 including the vendors getting there late, everyone lost out, with bad weather, deer season and directly competing shows.

I went to the Monroeville show and it was nice but they had a lot of expensive collector grade shotguns,wild west stuff and the atmosphere turned me off.Something about video/audio taping gives me the creeps.

I prefer the Washington show.Friendly vendors/attendees,the people that run it are great to deal with at the show or at their shop.Prices are more in line at this show than most others I've attended.Only $5.00 to get in.Good food.This show has everything going for it.YMMV.tom.

I agree with deputy tom, I will be at the Wash. Show. I really didn't care much for the Monroeville Show. There really wasn't that much there to look at for me. I'm hoping the one in Wash. is really good this time. I remember last year before Christmas that show was great!! I walked out of there with an empty wallet :-( but two more guns for my collection :-).

[inspector710]

I prefer the Washington show, also. They had a lot of powder and stuff in Monroeville, but the Wash. show seems friendlier with a lot more guns.

[RJT]

Split the difference and do both! I agree the atmosphere is more casual at the Wash Co show, but like I posted in the other thread, the Monroeville show is more firearms orientated

My personal choice is do both..12 bucks total for admission and that's about the price of a movie ticket on the weekends anymore...way more enjoyment to be had...I just wish they weren't on the same weekend...it's gonna be a bitch gettin off work early enough
