One of the other things I looked at was taking the rifle to one of the larger shows. The issue there is cost. The nearest one to me is Tulsa which is held twice a year in April & October. I actually bought the varmint rifle this project started with at that show in 1999. A table is $140, plus $75 in gas, a couple of motel nights and three days worth of meals. That looks like $500 to me, and the rifle might not sell. Unless you are a dealer who can amortize the fixed cost over more units, the show route does not look very good either.
