from cabelas facebook page Cabela's

Due to recent changes made by Reed Exhibitions regarding the Eastern Sports and Outdoor Show, Cabela’s will no longer sponsor this year’s event. After careful consideration regarding Cabela’s business practices, and the feelings of our customers, Cabela’s will, unfortunately, not have a presence at the Eastern Sports and Outdoor Show.


Link to the issue its the banning of the guns at the show

Good for Cabela and I wouldn't go to it either.

We all have a choice, they made theirs.

Maybe other sporting goods retailers like um o I dunno ACADEMY will take note! Cabelas seems to realize who pays the bills, good for them

Good for Cabelas.
I'm curious if this years attendance suffers because they banned tactical weapons.
It irks me that gun owners commenting in the article are calling them assault weapons though.

Interesting to have a show/exposition like this and then limit/discourage a significant portion of the population from being able to fully enjoy it.

I have heard quite a few companies are stepping up and not doing business or taking orders from New York state/governmental agencies...
