http://www.whptv.com/news/local/story/Ca...fJT0PKDvhg.cspxCabela's pulls sponsorship from Eastern Sports and Outdoor Show In just two weeks the Eastern Sports and Outdoor Show kicks off in Harrisburg. It's billed as the largest show of its kind in the country, but today one of its' largest sponsors pulled out in protest. But in the wake of the Newtown shootings and the recent response from President Obama pushing for a ban of assault weapons. CBS 21 News first told you last week the Eastern Sports and Outdoors show banned assault weapons. But one of the major sponsors of the show announced through facebook they will no longer participate. In a facebook status posted this afternoon, Cabela's stated, "After careful consideration regarding Cabela's business practices and the feelings of our customers, Cabela's will, unfortunately not have a presence at the Eastern Sports and Outdoor Show." We've also learned other local businesses like Trop Gun Shop in Elizabethtown, Kinsey's Outdoors from Mount Joy and Lancaster Archery Supply won't participate because of the ban. We reached out to a spokesperson from Reed Expos, the company that hosts the Eastern Sports and Outdoors Show, but they did not immediately respond to our calls.

It seems a lot of hunting personalities are gonna do this.
We are proud to make this statement in unity with Ralph and Vicki Cianciarullo, Archers Choice and the Choice
Due to the recent changes in policies made by Reed Exhibition we will not be attending the Eastern Sports and Outdoor Show unless they reverse their decision.
As strong supporters of our 2nd Amendment rights we are all united in this decision. We were all looking forward to attending again this year to see our friends and fellow sportsmen and women and regret this unfortunate situation.
Sincerely, Fred and Michele Eichler, Fulldraw Outfitters, Predator Nation TV and Easton Bowhunting TV. God save America and our constitutional rights

THAT, is why I shop at Cabelas! Their customer service and commitment to outdoorsmen is solid.
If you’re a common sense person, you probably don’t feel you have a home in this world right now. If you’re a Christian, you know you were never meant to.

Yet another Eastern Sports and Outdoor Show exhibitor from Lancaster County has decided to pull out of the upcoming event in Harrisburg because of the show organizer's recent decision to ban assault rifles from being sold or displayed there. Rob Kaufhold, owner of Lancaster Archery Supply, 2195A Old Philadelphia Pike, announced his decision Thursday, joining Trop Gun Shop of Elizabethtown, which decided Wednesday not to be an exhibitor. "In support of the hunting and outdoors industry, Lancaster Archery Supply has chosen not to exhibit at the 2013 Eastern Sports and Outdoor Show where show management decisions have created a volatile and disruptive political environment," Kaufhold wrote on the company's Facebook page. http://lancasteronline.com/article/local...-rifle-ban.html

Third Lancaster County business withdraws from Eastern Sports and Outdoor Show over gun flap
Kinsey's Outdoors is the latest Lancaster County business to pull out of the Eastern Sports and Outdoor Show, saying the organizer's decision to ban assault weapons from being sold or displayed conflicts with its principles.
The Mount Joy business had booked three booths at the show, with probably more than $10,000 invested, and stands to lose money. But finances weren't a factor in the decision to withdraw, general manager Alex Cameron said Friday.
Its relationships with customers and other vendors, and how it could support them, were the main considerations, he said.

Good I am proud some people have the balls to do something. The only way to hurt these gun haters and obummer followers is to hit them right where it counts, in the pocketbook.

Great job for those pulling out. Gotta take a stand.
