Here we go again! YOU CAN”T CARRY IN THE NRA CONVENTION ZOMG!
Last year in Indiana, they tried the same thing, only to face the embarrassment of failure for not checking with a tad of care…or basically do a Google search.
From the NRAAM site, front page at the bottom:
During the 2015 NRA Annual Meeting & Exhibits, lawfully carried firearms will be permitted in the Music City Center with the proper license in accordance with Tennessee law. Bridgestone Arena prohibits the possession of firearms. When carrying your firearm, remember to follow all federal, state and local laws.
Now, what Shannon und Company are quoting, I think are the regulations for Gun Shows, probably by the State of Tennessee. I won’t even bother looking because I know they are done the same way in Florida and other places too and have been for decades now. And I find particularly hypocrite of them that they are coming down of gun safety…..wait, they are not being hypocrite as they have never been for gun safety in the first place.
Never mind…. carry on.
At the shows here, we have to use a wire-tie to disable all firearms on display. They also disable all carried firearms by the customers. They tell us the only loaded weapons allowed are the ones carried by the deputies that are on duty. I’ve never heard of having to remove the firing pins.
I don’t see the problem with buying a gun and having it shipped to your home FFL. Maybe they should check, that’s what the law requires. Maybe they should check out ATF.GOV. Lots of good information and if it’s not on their FAQ page, you can e-mail them your questions and they will get you a answer.
OMG!!! Lab abiding gun owners are being asked to obey the law!!!
See, I guess when you are a total left-winger their shock and alarm at obeying the law makes total sense. I mean their guys can totally poses evil high-cap assault mags in DC, but you and I can’t.
[…] Sometimes you have to wonder how Shannon Watts sleeps at night given the web of lies she’s bui…. This one comes up every year, that somehow you aren’t able to carry guns at NRA Annual Meeting. This year she finds some quote that speaks about firearms being displayed on the show floor, and surmises that means it applies to people’s carry pieces. […]
[…] Moms Demand says you can’t carry a gun at the NRA meeting. They’re wrong. […]
Looks like they’re mistaking the exhibitor guns (firing pins removed) for the legally carried ones, and golly gee willikers, we have to receive transfer purchases via an FFL within our own state? *Gasp* I never heard of such a thing! Morons.
They’re taking the word of the linked article w/ their own flair of ‘NRA leadership’ added in for extra spice. So they took inaccurate information and played telephone w/ it.
Sigh… Really??? AGAIN??? idjits…
What? There’s no gun show loophole where I can just walk out with a 30 round per second clip and a shoulder thing that goes up? Screw that, I’m staying home!
[…] at Guns, Cars and Tech reminds you to watch your ps and qs in Nashville. Moms Demand lies that you can't carry at […]
Hey Jeff0…..now that I know you’re not going …..I think I’ll go……
