So yes... What are your ideas on an airsoft meet n' swap. It would most likely be in a large building. People would come in, set up a table, or buy a table. Thoughts? Sponsors?
Before you guys go hating, please keep in mind that this was my dad's idea and would like to see it happen in the near future. I don't want to hear I'm stupid, it will never work, you can't do that, etc.
What would you want to see? Competitions? Contests? Raffles?
Show me some ideas!

Call the surgeons and tell them to take the day off, because I'll be doing all the operating now.
There's a point where this needs to stop, and we've clearly passed it

Nothing wrong on a get together.
Talk about airsoft, know the community, swap some shit.
I like it!
If its a large building, maybe some pistol competition - IPSC.

I think AP has put on a swap meet for the last 3-4 years, each summer. They started out exactly as you described, then they evolved into having games attached to them (Summer Slaughter series).

Because I'm OP: Topic. Now.
Anyways, I've been thinking of having one held in a parking lot. If it's cleared with the cops....

On Topic:
There have been many swaps already. One issue is hosting it and who is going to plan it. Another is location, because arenas lose money from their pro shops by hosting these. The third is that airsofters are all cheap little bastards.
But that's all useless.
1) Use the search feature. It's been talked about
2) AP hosts an annual swap meet in the summer at an outdoor field. Look for Summer Slaughter.
3) I'm menstruating and that's why I'm crabby.

Listen, I don't feel like arguing, but all I wanted was some info on what people would want to do at meet, rather than having a boring "come and trade" thing

If you want to do one we can have it here at Camp R&R, that way we can do pick up skirmishes at the same time, when are you thinking of holding it?
You can talk to Commi Hunter about doing a close quarters shooting get up.

I was originally thinking of doing it in December, that way it's before X-mas.
