Meanwhile, gun owners like Walter Bingham say they believe the president's executive action plans increased fear and show attendance.
"There is a lot more people in the show than I've seen in a long time," Bingham said. "They've actually opened another side of the venue and stuff like that. So, has it had an impact? I think it probably has had a pretty big impact on the sales."
Exhibitors say "the nation's gun show" also specializes in gun training.
President Obama is expected to meet with attorney general Loretta Lynch Monday to discuss gun control laws.
