This week at the Nation's Gun Show, we got the news that might mean the end of FBKnife as I set it up. The property owner for the Dulles Expo Center has had the property bought out my Ikea! Without the Expo Center, there is no place to hold a 1300 table show. With the environment politically speaking, we are in hostel territory as most of the north side of the state is fully democrat.
The promoter is talking about an old Sears store and something in Leesburg. Springfield is much harder to get to from this area. I have done shows in Fredericksburg, Richmond, Harrisonburg with little to no luck. The Fredericksburg show was moved out of their Expo center and taken to "the airport". I can only believe that is Shannon Field on the far side of town from I95.
Without the 6000 entrants, there is not enough business at shows like Fischersville to continue to operate. The November show at Chantilly might be our last!
