NSSF Statement on the Eastern Sports and Outdoor Show

by Rob Leahy ⌂ @, Prescott, Arizona, Thursday, January 24, 2013, 09:53 (4324 days ago)

We have just learned that Reed Exhibitions has decided to postpone the 2013 Eastern Sports and Outdoor Show.

In the days following Reed Exhibitions' announcement that modern sporting rifles would be prohibited from the Eastern Sports and Outdoor Show, the leadership of the National Shooting Sports Foundation (NSSF) has been in intense, frank discussions with Reed Exhibitions management in an effort to reverse this unacceptable decision. These discussions reached an impasse.

NSSF is in no way affiliated with, nor does it participate in or exhibit at this show in any way. Reed Exhibitions does, however, manage the NSSF-owned SHOT Show (though Reed manages the SHOT Show, all SHOT Show decisions, policies and actions are made at NSSF's direction).

Because of Reed's recent actions, NSSF is considering all options regarding the management of future SHOT Shows.
Reed Exhibitions Blinks: Try and violate our Civil Rights, try and cozy up to the Communists (I'm tired of calling them Leftists) in Washington, try and ignore the buying power of the gun Culture? ;-) :-D

They "postponed" it because no one was coming. LMAO

If they don't want to support us fully, forget it.

Hopefully the NSSF can yank the SHOT show away from them.
