Hey everyone,

So I've tried to stay up-to-date on their website, but I was wondering if anyone out there had any insight or have followed up directly to verify if it is still going to be held? I know the Winston Salem, NC, gun show isn't much to get excited about considering other shows that have a lot more to offer, but when we went to the last Raleigh, NC, gun show, it was terrible. There was more accessory and beef jerky vendors than firearm vendors I feel like.

Anyways, if anyone has had any clarification on this I would appreciate any update you can provide on it. Thanks in advance and hope everyone's doing well out there!

Hi Steve, have you reached out to them at CE?
They're usually decent about responding to emails/phone calls
 
@HMP I haven't and didn't know that you could actually do that. I will here in a bit and place and update on here. It shows as verified on their page but being that I can contact them myself I'll simply verify with them. My brother asked me today and I hadn't thought much about it so thank you for that information!
 
Ive not heard anything myself, but Ive not looked into it.
Anything on the fairgrounds' site?
 
It has been cancelled due to the governor extending Phase 2 restrictions. The fairgrounds won’t allow the show to happen under the circumstances.

I emailed the Greensboro show promoter asking for the status. No reply yet. @cubrock, any news about that one?

Probably the same as every other show right now. If you aren’t wearing a mask, they assume you have a medical exemption.
 
Oh, and Sixshooters will have a show in Greensboro the weekend that Winston was supposed to happen. I’ll post more details closer to time.
 
Thanks everyone and @cubrock That would be very much appreciated in regards to the Greensboro show.


Will be held at the National Guard Armory at 10 Franklin Blvd in Greensboro.
 
Nothing seems to line up or make sense in NC anymore it seems. It's sad but we'll push through! A friend of mine that lives up in Creedmoor figured he would go to the most recent show in Raleigh and sent me photos of the line actually wrapping around the building and decided to pass but did end up finding what he was looking for from a local dealer. Can't want until things start to open back up and shifting back to how many events were held before.

My cousin is absolutely convinced that if we ALL had worn masks everywhere, early on and now, it would all be fixed by October.

Respectfully, this virus has been around for nearly 2 decades that we know of and now either it has been modified to be able to be contracted by a human, or we have evolved to a point where we're susceptible to it. Either way, it will never go away, just like the flu. It will always exist and it will continue to evolve as we do as well. We need to be exposed to the elements and things in the world so that our immune systems can respond, adjust, and evolve as it should in our DNA. This is another conversation/argument that would be meant for another post, but simply put, it's not going anywhere anytime soon and with the government(s) taking away our freedoms by putting a halt on businesses and what we're allowed to do and not do, IS however taking away our "freedoms" that we are supposed to have as a free country.

Essentially stating that if you don't want to go out and wear a mask, don't go out. Or if you want to go out and choose to either wear a mask, not wear one, social distance or not, that's on you. But the government does not make it that simple because they're still controlling people. I live my life exactly as I have been living but I still go out and wear a mask because I have no time to deal with someone confronting me causing a scene for not wearing one (it's happened and it's an ordeal I simply have no time for). I've educated myself on this whole thing and I'm not going to live in fear as the media and government wants me to do. If everyone out there would do a little research as well, they may see the light and see this situation a little differently.

Again, this response is not an attack on anyone, but I did not feel like that statement was exactly plausible here so I'm just posting my response to that statement. I respect everyone's views on the situation, I may just not agree with them. But again thank you all that have helped me with following this show as well as others and I hope everyone is doing well and is safe out there!
