There's going to be a gun show at the Roanoke Civic Center on the 27th & 28th of October.

Roanoke Firearms is doing concealed carry classes each day, 11am-2:30pm, the class is $45 each ( I'll be taking the class)

How big of a show is this? I'll be driving up from Nashville the 27th and plan on meeting friends in Knoxville for a show. If that falls through then I could stop in Roanoke.

What is the address while you're at it please?

Thanks man,

I'm not sure how big it is relative to other shows, but I'd say it's a good sized show.

MikeS.:
Nashville to Knoxville, but you might "stop" in Roanoke? Isn't that a bit out of the way?
Edit: Nevermind, I just looked at your location!

But to your question: It's a good sized show(based on my limited experience), and in a brand new fancy show hall. I usually see lots of things that I want

It's not a bad show, usually. There are usually two floors full of vendors. Like most shows, many of the vendors sell books, collectables, coins, and beef jerky. But there are some good vendors there. I've purchased two guns out of the three I own at the Roanoke fun show. Both for good prices.

I'll be going Sunday morning probably.

I'll most likely be going to the Potts Slope range on 311 in the evening, as long as the weather is good. If some of you guys want to get together and do some shooting, we can arrange something.

Yeah my drive that Saturday was a long one. Nashville to Knoxville, with a 5 hr layover there. Spent about 3.5 hours at the gun show then met a friend for an early dinner. Then home all the way up thru Va to WV.

The gunshow in Knoxville was pretty darn good. Too bad I couldn't do both.
