...OPEN CARRY RULES
Patrons and vendors will be allowed to carry both concealed and open carry while at the Real Texas Gun Show.
HOWEVER, NOTHING HAS CHANGED CONCERNING BRINGING LOADED WEAPONS INTO THE GUN SHOW, IT IS NOT PERMITTED!!!!!
You will be ask to remove your ammunition and leave it in your vehicle. This is a safety issue only. Loaded weapons have not ever been allowed on the gun show floor by PATRONS OR VENDORS. We strive to provide a safe, family atmosphere and this will helps to prevent accidental discharges. You are entering into a PRIVATE EVENT and bringing loaded firearms into this PRIVATE EVENT IS PROHIBITED!!!
Refusal to comply with this rule is grounds for removal from the premise and or arrest.
Im still trying to figure out who owns or leases the Bell County Expo because their website doesn't specify. I cannot get the Bell County tax assessors property lookup to work to get a determination. Let's say for arguments sake they attempt to enforce this policy there is no way it's legal if owned or leased by a governmental entity correct? Does anyone know if the Bell County Expo center is owned or leased by a governmental entity?

I'm thinking>The notice above probably applies to "unlicensed" people, that's not a 30.06/30/07 sign, and they said open/concealed IS allowed ...
Might be interesting if Govt owns property and they want ammo checks of concealed weapons carried by licensees ... interesting to try to enforce that "private rule" ...
