Interested in purchasing a gun? Want to test out a new pistol? You can do all that and more at the Concealed Carry Expo, this May 8-10, 2015, at the Washington County Fair Park in West Bend, Wisconsin. How? The USCCA is not only organizing an industry-leading consumer show, it’s bringing a mobile, live-fire shooting range to expo attendees.
The inaugural, family-friendly event is designed to celebrate the concealed-carry lifestyle and will include three days packed full of training seminars, products, retailers, and a special concealed-carry fashion show, along with the live-fire shooting experience. For a small fee, adult guests will receive shooting instruction and will have the chance to test out firearms provided by various sponsors, including FNH USA, Kahr, Robert’s Defense, Springfield Armory, and Walther.
The range itself, provided by Blue Line Corp, is a seemingly innocuous, non-descript, 48-foot trailer. It looks like any other truck that might be making deliveries to the local grocery store. Step through its doors, however, and you’ll quickly see that the trailer’s cargo isn’t foodstuffs; it’s firearms. The specially designed, 10-meter range incorporates three shooting bays, moveable targets, ventilation system, computerized scenario trainer, and more bells and whistles (or sirens, actually) than can be listed. The interior design is 100% ballistically lined for safety and fully insulated for sound reduction, offering a controlled environment and advanced technology for firearms testing and training.
So don’t miss your chance to experience the mobile range, meet the USCCA team, attend training sessions, and check out the greatest new CCW gear and accessories at this first-of-its-kind event. The Concealed Carry Expo is free for USCCA members with membership card and photo ID. General, daily admission is $8, and combo tickets are also available for a weekend pass ($20) and for all three days plus the fashion show ($30). For more information, visit concealedcarryexpo.com.
