Any of you guys going? I don't know anyone personally who is going this year.

I never go but I sure do like seeing what's new.
A day or two ago I found out Ruger has their own five-seven pistol, but they don't spell out 57 in Ruger-57. The MSRP is $799, so the actual price should be about half the price of the FN Five-seveN. 8) I'm thinking about trading in one of my .45s and a few extra mags for it. I need to talk to someone I know who has a 5.7mm to get his opinion on the caliber first. Then maybe wait awhile and see if the price comes down. Or if the guns are junk (I doubt it). 20+1 rounds in a defensive pistol sounds really good to me. They make 10-round mags too, for "those places". ::) Now they need to make a PCC that uses the same mags, and 30-round extended mags for both of them.

I would like to go, did sema a coulpe of times. I just dont know any one firearms industry( which is pretty damn shocking as i know some one in just about every industry)

I have had a number of friends attend. What they said you need is essentially a gun oriented business card to get in. The www.shotshow.org site looks like something easy to register for other than I don't have a gun business.

its more than that.
I have looked into it several times. They have different catagorys and most have 7-10 things needed. Not cheap stuff to get either. Like a comm'l lease, POs, business lic, advertisements ( in print no less) ffl number if required. It would take between 5- 10 k to get eberything needed.

Or you could just talk to your friendly FFL or gunsmith and have them get you registered.

Yeah, there is that....

Tried that, only prob is they get 2 tickets and you have to be an employee.
New state so not found my local guy yet.

5-10k? Maybe for an exhibitor, but not for just an attendee. You just need to be in the industry.... Last time I looked... like maybe $50?
