Mr Imperato at the annual NRA meeting?

Does anyone know if Mr. Imperato will be at the annual NRA meeting in Indianapolis next weekend?

I wanted to thank him in person for being the company who listened to my pleas for a lever-action .327 Federal magnum rifle.
If he will be there, does anyone know which day(s)/times(s)?

Now it seems I also get to tell him about my newest Henry, the American Eagle .22 I won in the Henry forums contest!

Henry USA is one of the sponsors .... I'd bet that a call to Henry customer service could give you the answer in a hurry .... who knows, you might even setup a meeting with him

That's a great idea.
Think I'll give that a shot.

Thanks for the idea!

Long story how I know, but Yes, he will be in attendance in Indy.

Now FINDING him may be another story, but a stakeout of the Henry booth is a good bet!

Mr. Imperata
That would be Mr. Imperato. Just correcting!

I stand corrected.
I emailed Henry and asked about his schedule for the NRA meeting.
Don't know if I'll get a reply I can use before the show, but I'll be there scouting it out all the same.

Can't wait to see one of these American Eagles up close.
I imagine I'll get to see one in Indianapolis before I receive mine, but that's o.k.

I think it's a great idea to want to thank him for the .327 and the rifle you won. I hope you get to meet him. Get a photograph if you can, that would be neat.

P.S. I edited your post to make the spelling correction.

I attended the last NRA convention held at Indianapolis and Mr. Imperato was there and at the Henry booth. He seemed quite common and outgoing.

Well that's a bummer.
I just got an email from Henry telling me that Mr. Emperato will NOT be at the booth this year, but would be at the dinner.
The dinner/auction is Thursday afternoon, and I wasn't planning on being there until Saturday.

That, and tickets to the dinner are $85 a pop!

Looks like I may not get to thank Mr. Emperato in person.
