A year or two before he passed Steve Barnett told me he was about done with lugging all those guns around to various shows and events because sales were so low it really wasn't worth all that effort. It's all because of Internet gun sales he said.

I think most dealers have that same mindset. If the event is near home they may set up but the long distance hauls are becoming a thing of the past. The Spring Southern still draws some long distance vendors and I hope that continues.
