Hi Mikey.
I've been to the show a couple of times over the years and been pretty disappointed both times. As you know, shows change over the years and it's been 5 years since I've been to that one.
I'd hold out for the Indy 1500 or Louisville show, if having to travel very far.

If you're traveling very far, I'd wait for the Indy 1500 show in January '011.

I'm pretty sure this is a different promoter than did the shows a few years back. Tom and Karen Allman, Tristate gunshows, are hosting these shows now and they run a good gun show. Since it's going to be at a National Guard Armory it will probably be just a bit larger than a basketball court. Tom treats his vendors well, his normal entrance fee is $5 and parking is usually free. So is the coffee. I've never been to his Indy show but he tells me the Thanksgiving show is a good one. I seldom miss his Seymour, Salem or Madison shows and, were it not for him, Kenny Woods and RK would have never been able to get in the Louisville market. I just don't like Indianoplace and if I go to a show over TG it will be rburg's show at Rupp in Lexington.

This is correct. If they can fill up Stout Armory, it will be a good size show. Besides the "gym", there is also another room adjoining and a hallway for overflow. Back in the day this was a great show. Not nearly as big as the 1500, but like it was said, Tom does a good show in Seymour. I always drive down to that one and it's almost 2 hours for me.

Thyanks for the info on the Stout Armory show. Those promoters do a show in Evansville. Sometimes it is really bad and sometimes it is outstanding. If lots of dealers show up, it is a good show, 5 bucks at the door, and free parking. Thanks for everyones input. Mikey
