There was a thread on gun shows on another forum I frequent.  One poster mentioned that he stopped going to gunshows when the feds started waiting in the parking lot and writing down all the license plate numbers of the show visitors.

Has anyone seen this being done anywhere?  I've never seen them doing this.  Doesn't mean they weren't, just that I've never seen it.

That was an isolated incident in VA (IIRC).

I certainly hope so.  I read the stuff on here about that VA issue but the poster in the other forum didn't say where it happened.

Lawdog has a reliable source in Florida that says everyone who visited a gun show in the past 20 years
is going to be arrested on Christmas eve.

Man, I sure wouldn't want the job of writing down those numbers.
I was at the show in Harrisburg, PA yesterday and the parking lot at the Argicultural complex was packed.  And it was really cold out there.
What the Hell is the FBI going to do with the license numbers of half of the residents of the State of Pennsylvania?

If they really want to know about you; "They" will find out everything that they want to know so fast that it would prolly make you piss your pants.

Not Tinfoil but a 21st Century Fact.

Anyone stupid enough to believe BATFE lurks in parking lots to write down license numbers isn't smart enough to own firearms--or sharp objects.

Trust me; the government has a pretty good idea of what is in your gun safes.

Absolutely!!!!  Everyone knows behind the show building is where the "gunshow loophole" sales happen!!!!!!! That's where the agents lurk now!!!!!

we did have an incident a couple of years ago in birmingham with undercover ATF trying to entice dealers into under the table sales at shows.
