FAIRFAX, Va. – The NRA Personal Protection Expo welcomes back the Concealed Carry Fashion Show on Friday, Sept. 6, 2019, at the Ft. Worth Convention Center in Ft. Worth, TX.

The audience will vote for their top three favorite concealed carry products at the event’s conclusion.  Del C. Arnold, CEO and Founder of Asfaleia Designs, says, "We are excited to sponsor the 2019 NRA Personal Protection Expo Fashion Show. Personal protection and fashion are fundamental to Asfaleia Design’s line of bags, making this show a perfect match.”

“I am thrilled and honored to be a part of NRA’s Personal Protection Expo Fashion Show this year,” Reese said. “It’s such a great opportunity for a wide audience to understand the safe, reliable solutions our industry offers for those interested in personal protection and the security of one’s family.”
