I was hoping someone from SC could help out on our gun show thread in the NC hometown forum section with descriptions of the facilities and with details of the general gun show's quality, size , type of vendors, venue issues(small aisles, handicap issues), parking fees or special vendor discounts,etc...
We could use a good detailed bit for the Columbia and Greenville? PSA locations and what the deal on the warehouse location for picking up to save shipping? I know it is only open on Saturday but not much else, like if you have to pay sales tax if it was being shipped out of state. I did ask PSA once directly and they would pass it it on but probably wouldn't open the location on gun show weekends fro Sunday's business. Anything else in other cities worth hitting for local shops, ranges, museums, food , etc. would also be appreciated for those making drives.
I only have small list of shows but wanted to have guide for people driving from say Ashville , Charlotte, Fayetteville, and /or Wilmington plus everywhere in between. If there are more to add please post and I'll edit it in at the top.

The thread location is
http://www.ar15.com/forums/t_8_34/581465_.html Please post your responses there. Thank you for helping out. I hope the descriptions we have may be of equal use. Since the panic is dieing off, it would be nice to what is what nowadays. Plus if making the drive is worth it to the shows and if in the area, should you bother going in or just save the door charge kinda deal.
