Hello all.
I was just informed that the Plano, IL American Legion will be hosting another 1 day Gun Show on November 13th from 8am till 230pm. ^:)^ ^:)^ ..:.. ..:.. ^:)^
The table is reserved and the opportunity to get out the word is at hand.  I will be there at 7am to start the set up and I could use some energetic able bodied Rifleman to help spread the word.  This is a great venue and at the July 31st show we had a very good turn out......they even have breakfast available. O0 ;)  Come on out for a few hours, do some shopping and help talk some Citizens into becoming Great Americans. O0 ^-^
I hope to see you there.  Rev.

I need some updated trail flyers ASAP or this thing isn't going to happen.  Garand could you give me a call?  Does anyone have a updated file they could post or PM me so if need be I could try to print some off?

Sounds good Rev, I'll give you a call a bit later. I should be able to meet you in the middle or so.  O0

Anyone else out there able to help staff this event??? Gun shows are gravy when you have a little help.

This show has been rescheduled for Nov 13th.  They did not have enough commitments by vendors for this weekend.  :wall: :wb: I may be in Alton that weekend but I am sure that we can get it covered one way or another.  Good news is I got lot's of flyer's and tri-folds now! O0

Went to the Plano Gun Show today.  Very low turnout of both vendors and customers (deer season) but a very high percentage of the folks I talked to were very interested.  Several took notes on the Tech Sights and slings and 'how do you do this or that'. I've never seen so many people that had to look through them the sights.  Several took the time to read almost all of the Six Steps.  I definitely expect t see some of them on the line.
All in all, worth the trip.

Forgot to mention I 'corralled' the Police chief of Somonauk and got a 'commitment' to send each of his officers to an event at Waterman with their newly acquired M16A2 (I think they share it but that is another story).
