Carry was allowed at the Houston convention.TexAg08 wrote:Any idea if carry will be allowed? I went the gen one in Houston, but don't recall if it was posted or not.
You will be able to carry at any NRA convention. That's a contractual requirement that only a last minute change in the law could obviate. That's not happening in Texas.TexAg08 wrote:Any idea if carry will be allowed? I went the gen one in Houston, but don't recall if it was posted or not.

Chas.
How does one apply to be a volunteer at the convention? I'm in Fort Worth, but I could put in 2-3 days for them.george wrote:I do not know if they still do this, but I volunteered to work when they were in Houston, and they appointed me as one of the firearms inspectors. Consequently, I had access to the show outside of regular hours. That is, no one was there except the people setting up their booths. It was a fantastic opportunity to speak with people from all the vendors, and handle some amazing firearms. There are other volunteer positions (working in the store, signing in members, etc.), but I don't know anything about them.
For this year there was an option on the web site menu. I imagine next year will be the same.AJSully421 wrote:How does one apply to be a volunteer at the convention?

I don't know, but it would be extremely foolish politically to ban concealed or open carry. Gun controllers would have a heck of a field day with that.TexAg08 wrote:Any idea if carry will be allowed? I went the gen one in Houston, but don't recall if it was posted or not.
Sorry, I have no idea how we recruit and/or organize volunteers.Jusme wrote:AJSully421 wrote:How does one apply to be a volunteer at the convention?

We have a Forum Administrator, who may be able to provide you with information. I would just PM Charles, and see if he can point you in the right direction.
