I drove up from Wilmington today to check out this show, and got a really big surprise. Perhaps this is something that I should have known, but vendors are not allowed to sell gunpowder at the Fayetteville Gun Show. I drove up specifically to purchase some Trail Boss powder. I spoke with the organizer representative from C&E Gun Shows, and he stated that the Fire Marshall would not allow gunpowder inside the building, and the same condition was enforced at the Hickory Gun Show that they promote. He did elaborate that there could be a total of 2 pounds of powder, and 10,000 primers inside the building. There was one vendor (Cover Six) that had some powders available, but you had to pay inside and pick up the powder outside of the building, and as luck would have it he did not have any Trail Boss. His powder sample jugs were empty and velcroed to a board.
I wonder what the Fire Marshall is up to? Does anyone know any other shows that do not allow gunpowder sales?
Not a total loss, as I got to spend time with my brothers that live in the area.
