jag22: Yes, a dealer was caught on security video stealing a gun or two from his neighbor's table. There must have been previous suspicions in that immed. area, He was prosecuted iirc.
Englishmn: The aisles seemed wider than almost any other gun show I've attended (over 12 attended).
The lateral space, high ceilings and bright lighting plus windows translated (for me) into none of my usual 'social claustrophobia'.
horsemen61: Try to walk down every aisle, in a Huge series of zig zags, all over the building, and don't forget the downstairs section.
On this first patrol, go literally Nonstop (except to eat or 'nature stops') in order to cover any aisles with rifles (or handguns etc) which seem to be your general favorites, and will take quite a while. This is easy if you are alone, at least for the first quick tour.
Only slow down if you recognize a possible objective on a table. note where it is, as prev. suggested. If you want to look for a second example, immed. restart your patrol with no interruptions. All of this is generally only for people with specific objectives, and have a Plan B and C at the start, in case Plan (gun) A isn't avail, or is above your "highest acceptable price".
After you finally have finished a very steady, focused stroll by all such aisles and tables, take your time when returning to certain areas.
