The long-awaited return of the Gun Show to Columbus!

Update: PRO/C&E show this weekend at Vets Aug 9-10

Well, here we finally are. Last March I was preparing to announce here BFA's inclusion in the First Gun show in Columbus in 20 years. This show was only made possible by our passage of HB 347 which preempted local ordinances and gun bans.

If you've been paying attention you also know that the show was unavoidable put on hold due to circumstances beyond the control of the dedicated people at PRO.

Thankfully PRO has partnered with a wonderful company "C&E" to produce a new line up of central Ohio area gun shows. The first will be this weekend Aug 9 & 10 at Vets memorial. This will be the largest central Ohio show in years! Shows are also scheduled for Wilmington and Westland mall later in the year.

C & E is dedicated to producing a fun, safe and very professional show. At last notice had upwards of 800 vendors lined up for this weekends event. So it will be big! We hope everyone will help make this first show in Columbus a hugh success. See you there!
