ktyhawk I like bacon Registered: 11/20/08 Posts: 1390 Loc: Between Richmond & Williamsbur... City or County: New Kent	Yeah, I know there is a show that weekend. The raceway show doesn't really have much compared to the Showplace one. This past weekend was a good example. The first three rows were guns/ammo/accessories. The rest of mostly crap. Come on out to the swap meet. You can always go to the show on Sunday.

VaGunTrader The Administrator Registered: 11/19/08 Posts: 1164 Loc: Dinwiddie County Va City or County: Sutherland - 23885	If this swap meet gets too big and the word gets out beyond this website to the general public then it may be considered a gun show??? Read this http://leg1.state.va.us/cgi-bin/legp504.exe?000+cod+54.1-4201.1 § 54.1-4201.1. Notification by sponsor of firearms show to State Police and local law-enforcement authorities required; records; penalty. A. No promoter of a firearms show shall hold such show without giving notice at least 30 days prior to the show to the State Police and the sheriff or chief of police of the locality in which the firearms show will be held. The notice shall be given on a form provided by the State Police. A separate notice shall be required for each firearms show. "Promoter" means every person, firm, corporation, club, association, or organization holding a firearms show in the Commonwealth. The promoter shall maintain for the duration of the show a list of all vendors or exhibitors in the show for immediate inspection by any law-enforcement authorities, and within five days after the conclusion of the show, by mail, by hand, by email, or by fax, transmit a copy of the complete vendor or exhibitor list to the law-enforcement authorities to which the 30-day prior notice was required. The vendor or exhibitor list shall contain the full name and residence address and the business name and address, if any, of the vendors or exhibitors. B. A willful violation of this section shall be a Class 3 misdemeanor. C. The provisions of this section shall not apply to firearms shows held in any town with a population of not less than 1,995 and not more than 2,010, according to the 1990 United States census.

VaGunTrader The Administrator Registered: 11/19/08 Posts: 1164 Loc: Dinwiddie County Va City or County: Sutherland - 23885	Originally Posted By: bkrawler I think the showplace is for rent. This is causing quite the buzz. I've got an ezup tent. 8x8. Well all squeeze under there. One table. Legion hall is a great idea though. I'd do it in the garage but we've just exceeded the occupancy permit with all this interest. I wonder how much it rents for a Sat/Sun

ktyhawk I like bacon Registered: 11/20/08 Posts: 1390 Loc: Between Richmond & Williamsbur... City or County: New Kent	A question to our friendly BAFTE personnel who may be (ok... are) monitoring this site: Does the proposed swap meet meet the criteria for a "gun show"? Please chime in and provide us the proper information on what constitutes an actual gun show. I don't believe we are having a gun show. We are actually having a gathering among members of a club to foster the opportunity to trade un-needed items. I welcome our esteemed members of the BATFE who monitor this site to attend our local swap meet. Come on out that day... the first hot dog is on me.

roverich Double barrel Registered: 12/20/11 Posts: 59 Loc: No,Va. City or County: Woodbridge	I would consider it a Barbicue get together ..Not a gun show ... Now if guys standing around shooting the bull decide they want to trade stuff they have laying around in the trunks of there cars , well that should be allowed ..After all , there just trading stuff ..who cares if there may be a trade or two for a firearm for a few worthless dollar bills ...

Orange Pea shooter Registered: 10/06/11 Posts: 15 Loc: Virginia City or County: Glen Allen	Will there be a gunsmith available during this time? I need a few simple things done that I don't feel comfortable doing myself, (stake a gas key, stake a pin on a trigger group, etc). If so, I'll be sure to show up and meet everyone.

There is also the same gun show the next day. And, surprise, two weeks or so later there will be another gun show at the Showplace and then another three weeks or so there will be another gunshow at RIR... So you miss half of Saturday for one gun show. BFD.
