You'll need to work for (or be the guest of) a manufacturer, a buyer (like a distributor or gun store) or be media. The admins and a couple of moderators (myself included) went this January as media. It was a lot of fun.

And, as far as I know.. Will be attending again in 2016..
Ben hit it on the head. To be invited, you have to have gone before. To attend as a first time, you need to apply to go, which means specific credentials. Credentials to attend the show are not that hard to obtain or prove if you are in the industry. Credentials to prove you are bona-fide media to attend the Media Day at the Range though are quite strict and very vetted.

Shiiiit...I met the last three Presidents (Obama, Bush & Clinton) and it took less paperwork/clearances than Media Day at the Range.

How about reps of suppressor and/or SBR makers . . . ? Close enough to be considered 'manufacturers' for the Show?

If you have an FFL, you can go (not C&R).
