first off im 14 and can shoot very well and am very comfertable about firearms. so my dad has an ar-15 he was trying to sell at a bill goodmans in ohio, he was also carying a pistol to sell he let me carry the ar around when he was tited of carying all the guns and cases. so i carry it around people ask me the price and brand of the gun i tell them they dont care about my age and i was 12 then, i even strike up covesations with the dealers about the gun thet dont care,talked to a trooper recruiting for the army there about it no prob rite. then about a year later as we left i was stopped by a worker who got veryy irate about me holding the gun and said it was against the law or something. so next time my dad took ar and i carried the tazer in its case then someone stops me who didnt work there but pointed out to my dad i couldnt cary it around he argued it was just a tazer but in the end he took it and carryed it the whole time
with his other 2 guns he had i felt so bad he had to carry it all.
so is it realy illigal for me just to carry stuff for my dad at a show even a freaking tazer in a case.
i am just so comfortable with guns me or my dad didnt give it thought,i guess i just dont see how im more dangerous than an adult with a gun.
(please forgive spelling im typing on a cell phone style keyboard)
 
As long as you are with your dad (who is the legal owner of said rifle I presume), there should be no problems with you carrying a gun at a gun show, so long as it is zip-tied according to their rules.

I've even seen people put guns in their strollers when they bring the kids (tell me if that's good or bad).

I'm not a lawyer by any means, but it SHOULD be legal for a minor to handle/carry a firearm with parental/adult supervision. Someone correct me if I'm wrong.
 
It is legal, of course, but maybe that particular gun show has rules about who can carry firearms around the show. It is their prerogative.

I think an email to whoever sponsors this particular show could clear up any misunderstanding about who is allowed to carry firearms for display purposes.
