=========
yes
The Gun Show is being classified by the Blaisdell as a retail operation.
Like going to Foodland or Longs Drugs.
However, the HHAA club may require vaccine checks for entry.

Herewith is information as of Feb.4, 2022 from the chairman of the gun show committee...who happens to be my cousin... :rofl:
Hawaii is a small place, huh? Of course, things may change at any time.

========================================================================
In addition to the normal rules and regulations, there are just a few new Covid-19 rules required by the Neal Blaisdell Center.

No contact tracing information
No temperature check
No proof of vaccinations or recent negative test
Social distancing required
Mask must be worn 100% of the time.
Eating or drinking NOT allowed in the building. You must go outside to eat and drink
Hand sanitizers recommended for all cash transactions
All vendors must bring their own hand sanitation supplies.
No barriers are required but spacing should be maximized.

Fingers crossed for success.

seems like that's the trend

I'm going to Maui on a trip and Hwn Air sent me an email...

Travel requirements
There are no travel restrictions for inter-island travel. If you’re flying between the Hawaiian Islands, you no longer need to take a
COVID-19 pre-travel test or quarantine, regardless of your vaccination status or where you’ve been vaccinated.
You also do not need to create a trip within the Safe Travels website for your inter-island flights.

Have not travelled since 2019, pre-covid.
Such is not the case for interstate travel though, right?
Maui just relaxed some restaurant rules too.

Out of state travel required vaxx or neg test to avoid the mandatory lockdown of 5 days.

Yup.  All that, at least used to before.  If Mojo is there, he'll have lots of patches.

Def check out Mojo Dave. I ran into him at Shot Show and got a LGB patch from him. Seen a bunch of other guys with it on their soft velcro's. 

This gun show will be interesting to see who comes and what they got.  I wonder if Osprey will be there...

I'll have to ask the club guys but from 10 to 2 pm it was pretty crowded and I was stuck at my table for most of that time.

Good turn out this weekend after a 2 year hiatus. Good to see old faces too! MF tradition and knowledge that needs to be passed down.

Freedom! Or limited freedom. Bulk 22 was pretty limited options. Went with a case of the CCI ar tactical. It shoots ok. Not match but better than the Remington crap and Winchester crap.

500rd case of 55gr ball was $230 for 1000 last show. Now goes for double!

Don’t we love inflation! Ammo is the new gold.

Now let’s see some pics of your scores!

I bought some cookies and candy.
Also saw macsak, EEF, Lihikai, HIFICO Andrew, etc, etc.
It was kind of like a big class reunion.
I think I heard the gate was over 3000 this weekend.

I really like the 1911 grips that EEF makes. But none of my guns are worthy of such beauty.

Was Fabtek at the show, selling target frames?  A friend bought one and wants abother but he lost the card/receipt and doesn't remember from whom he bought the frame.  He does recall that the seller was near the snack bar at the back of the show.  Any leads?
