It's all about control. Eventually they will want to streamline things and take it out of the county's hands. You will have to get your vouchers approved by the state and will take a year to get it done.
I would suggest getting a starter block set and adding to it over time.

My overall favorites are the 8" chefs knife and the 7" Santoku as I use them the most.

I have never seen any kind of protesters there and I have gone to almost every show that has been there in the last 20 years. Your getting me excited lol!
I didn't fire it just handled it. Commie mag had no wiggle at all. Mags are so easy to insert compared to an AK also. Front of the mag is held by a heavy cross pin instead of a notch so there's no fumbling for a sweet spot to get the mag in and the mag well is shallow. Great set up.
