Point is, you can get in on Friday?

Do the vendors really set up on Thursday or what? I kinda got the impression that half of them don't even show till Friday afternoon?

Who's actually ever been to one on Friday?

Place was absolutely packed this afternoon around 3 pm. That's about all I can report. Went for one specific thing, found it and left. Will probably go back tomorrow and browse although there's not much I can find for $14. :P

Look about halfway down this page for a $2 off coupon. CJL Enterprize

I was there between 1:20 and 3:00. I had to wait in line 20 minutes in order to get in. It was packed. I didn't really care about going, but my brother was down from Long Island, so I figured I would take him to a big gun show.

I didn't really find anything I needed or wanted. I was up there mainly for knives. However, I did run across one item that I thought was a deal. A vendor had a SS Wilson Combat Protector at a really good price, but I certainly don't need another 1911. I think my mother and sister had a good time. They were probably the only two people at the show who were specifically looking and buying non-firearm related merchandise.

It is too bad that nobody has a TGO name tag on so I would be able to recognize someone from the forum. I have been up there several times, and I am sure I have probably seen people from this forum, but I have no idea what they look like.

I stepped into Volunteer Ordinance Works this afternoon with a friend to have a look around as I've become fond of doing there lately :) and noticed the counters were wiped out. I was thinking hmm... Heavy duty cleaning or one heck of a sale... Lol The guy at the counter mentioned they take their wares to a gun show in Knoxville so I guess this was the one he was referring to.

Sadly that kind of ruined my browsing experience but I'm sure I'd have had a blast if I could have gotten to Knoxville!

Yep, they do that for most gun shows in TN. If you ever go to VOW on a weekend (I know today was an exception) it is always best to check and see if a gun show is scheduled.
