COLUMBIA, Mo. -- A big weekend for gun-owners---the Central Missouri event center was home to the RK gun show Friday, Saturday, and Sunday.

From hunting rifles to handguns, there was something for every type of gun lover, but not everybody was there to buy a gun.

"I"m more interested in just sort of the cultural aspects of this,” said Steve Mays, who was attending his first gun show. ”To see who's here, who's selling, what they're selling. You know, it's a pretty high-profile topic right now, so I thought I would come and get a sense of what's going on."

Show organizers say attendance is up significantly this year.

If you missed it, you can stop by Sunday from 9 to 3.
