Organizers of this weekend's Wind Gap Gun Show are not concerned about visitors' safety in light of an accidental shooting at a show in Bloomburg a few weeks ago.

At that show a vendor accidentally shot a woman in the leg while demonstrating a gun and holster.The vendor, Geoffrey Hawk, told police he thought the gun was unloaded when he demonstrated a concealed-carry wallet holster to the woman, Krista Gearhart, 25, of Orangeville.Gearhart was treated and released for a thigh wound at Geisinger Medical Center in Danville."The rules are the same, that there are no loaded weapons allowed," said Joel Koehler of Breinigsville, who works with Eagle Arms, a company that promotes and organizes gun shows."We're looking forward to meeting customers who are interested in shooting and collecting, who can buy, sell, trade from a great selection under one roof."The Wind Gap Gun Show will be held this weekend at the Plainfield Township Fire Company's social hall, 6480 Sullivan Trail.Eagle Arms was also the promotor for the Bloomsburg Gun Show June 28.According to the Bloomsburg Press Enterprise, Gearhart felt well enough the attend church the next day, and said she regretted not being able to complete the gun sale.Hawk told police he had done the same demonstration about 20 times without incident before the shooting, "racking" the gun's slide to clear it of bullets each time, Sharrow said. Somehow, the gun was loaded when Gearhart was shot.Police said Hawk told them he had left the gun on display when he completed background checks on some customers and believes it's possible someone loaded the gun when he was busy.Koehler said Hawk was asked to close his booth and leave the show, which continued Sunday. The show has an entrance sign that says "No Loaded Weapons" and Koehler said his staff checks all guns to ensure they are unloaded before they are brought in for display.Koehler said the shooting was the first at any show he has held at the fairgrounds or anywhere else.Plainfield Township Fire Company officials don't have second thoughts about the show."Overall, no, we don't have safety concerns," said George Biggs Jr., deputy chief and vice president of the fire company. "The company leasing the hall does a good job policing people going in and out, and we have police stop by periodically."Biggs said the fire company has hosted the event for four or five years, and plans to continue doing so. While it's not a big gun show they'll have 150 tables while the Bloomsburg Show had 500 tables people really seem to enjoy it."It's a lot more relaxed environment than people find at a store," Biggs said. "There are many vendors and they are all able to answer questions."Koehler, who said he's been in the firearms business for about 40 years, said gun shows attract people who are seeking special deals, researching new products and hoping to add to collections."At a gun show, there will be a number of unique vendors," Koehler said. "People have lots of different merchandise to see and a very good selection of new, used and even antique firearms."The Associated Presscontributed to this report.
