TFALAC 2026 Annual Event - Saturday September 12, 2026
- Event and Auction Items Updates
The TFALAC Annual Event is just a few weeks away. We hope you are looking forward to the event this year.
Updates as of August 28, 2026
First, an auction item update. We have been fortunate to arrange for an Auto Ordinance
Thompson "Tommy Gun" .45 cal (Model T1SB) - Short Barrel Rifle ("SBR") for the auction. We wanted to celebrate the federal court ruling that opens the door for striking down some, and potentially in the future, all of the NFA registration requirements on SBRs.
Second, we are planning a morning training session to be taught by
C. Richard Archie on grassroots activism. There is no additional cost for this session but seating is limited. It will start approximately 9:00 a.m. on the morning of the event in another meeting room at the venue. It will last about 45 minutes. If you want to participate, do two things - one - you need to show up at the event by 8:30am to register and - two - send an email to
cfrizzell@tennesseefirearms.com to be added to the session registration.
First, if you have not already purchased your tickets, or are on someone's guest list, take action now. Tickets continue to sell fast and the sponsorships and table pacakges are moving even faster.
Second,
Lara Logan, the Keynote Speaker, has made a
video invitation to the event for you and for you to share with others.
Third, Sponsor Updates: We are pleased to announce several returning and new sponsors for 2026. These include
Fifth, the list of auction guns is changing daily... presently, we have

VendorsWe structure the event to support our show vendors. Vendor packages include display table space in the event room so that you have visibility during the entire day. Vendor spaces include one table and two admission tickets but we can accomodate special needs for more space or tickets. If you are interested in vendor space or have questions, please contact John Harris (johnharris@tennesseefirearms.com).
Auction Item Donations TFALAC welcomes donations of auction items. You don't have to attend to donate auction items - they can be shipped and if they require an FFL we have an FFL who gratiously handles that need for us. TFALAC has a history of having a fine assortment of firearms and other items as part of its auction package but we also have had ammo, jewelry, gun safes, vacation trips, duck hunting packages, and even car wash coupons. If you or your business are interested in making a donation or providing auction items in exchange for promotional advertising, please get in touch with johnharris@tennesseefirearms.com soon.
Event VolunteersWe maximize the return on these events by asking TFA members and supporters who are attending to sign up to volunteer to help with various needs like event setup on Friday the 11th, early morning setup and registration on the 12th, helping with conducting the auctions, and post-event cleanup. If you are willing to volunteer you can sign up
here and doing so helps us plan.
Finally, you do not have to be a member of TFA to participate in this event.
