That makes sense. I've obviously never bought a holster at a gun show.TexasTornado wrote:No but those selling holsters will usually cut the tie at their stand then re-zip tie before you move on (I've purchased 4 holsters at 4 different shows, this has been the consistent method on each occasion.Soccerdad1995 wrote:Is it possible to check holster fit on a weapon that is zip tied?
It may be easier and safer, but on public property it is not up to the gun show promoter. You could not be charged with a crime for ignoring the posting and carrying anyway, which is what I did lat time I went to the Fort Worth show, though they didn't have compliant signs.bblhd672 wrote:I can see that it is just a lot easier and safer for the gun shows to not allow LTC's to roam the floor with weapons loaded. Probably cost less for their liability insurance as well.
However, by not wanding everyone to ensure that the rules are applied equally to both licensed and unlicensed attendees it is unfair to the LTC's.
At minimum, Premier Gun Shows and every other organization holding guns shows should have to clearly articulate on their website the policy on carrying firearms inside the show. In Premier's case saying on their website that guns are welcome and then posting .06 and .07 signs at the door sounds mutually exclusive.
They can do this if they want to pay for a private facility instead of a public facility.bblhd672 wrote:I can see that it is just a lot easier and safer for the gun shows to not allow LTC's to roam the floor with weapons loaded. Probably cost less for their liability insurance as well.
