I will also be working at the show part day Saturday. I'll be selling knives for "Double Eagle" towards the back and will be wearing a Chris Reeve Knives hat.

To anyone heading out there tomorrow, Kevin S, the guy I am working with on the CPL to 18 project, will be there with his laptop on the spot to get letters of support from people! I am asking for any support as I cannot do this alone, and all the hard work has been done already (draft written up and such), we just need citizens to stand behind it!

With great thanks, Poosharker!

Nice gun show this weekend. Kinda slow but good conversations with good people. Lot's of support, I can see it growing and growing.

We were able to speak with Pat Moon on Sunday. Pat is all for OC and Pat owns a business in Steilacoom. So if you are nearby Steilacoom and need a barber stop in, OC and get your haircut. Hell I might even drive out there myself once a month.

I asked for and received permission to get a picture of the Open Carry table at the Puyallup show.

In addition to OC pamphlets, I created a condensed version of our Washington FAQ's to hand out. We also have having information on hand of court cases, police training bulletins, business letterheads & email that allow lawful carry, pics of Open Carry events & concealed license information. I also put out business cards of business that host the OC pamphlets.

The "Guns & Coffee" T-shirt has been a great way to draw folks in and start conversations.
