Question about CCW & the Chantilly Gun Show

[zeroflux]

The Chantilly Gun Show is this weekend and I was just reading on their site that loaded firearms and loaded magazines are not allowed in the show. I also know that they ask if you have a firearm with you when you enter the show after buying your ticket. I assume that they verify that the firearm is empty and that they put on the plastic ties? Is there a safe area where they do this? Does anyone know where they unload/reload firearms at the show, or are you expected from the outset to only show up with an empty firearm? If so, do they at least remove the plastic tie for you prior to exiting?

What do those of you that regularly carry do when you attend the show? Simply go unarmed? Leave the firearm and holster in the vehicle? Unload/Reload the firearm in the vehicle? (please give specifics) Has anyone approached the show management about adding a safe area and clearing barrel if they don't already have one?

Go unarmed. Do NOT enter the facility with your firearm or magazine loaded - you will be trespassing. If I want to sell a gun, I go with it in the case.

If you enter with a loaded firearm they will ask you to leave, empty it and then they will take the mag and band the gun, returning the mag when you leave. There is no "safe area" to empty the firearm

Ammo stays in the truck, I go in and get banded.

They would band it just before entering the show. Leave the ammo behind.
