If You Could Attend One Militaria Show in the US, Which One Would It Be?

sabertasche · 11th December 2008, 01:53 AM

Greetings all, my wife has reluctantly given me permission to attend one Gun/Militaria Show in the US, in 2009. If we all could attend, which show would we go to?

As I live in BC, I was thinking of the Las Vegas show in January. What are the forum's thoughts?

Most 'gunshows' are just that, but Baltimore has gone from being one of the most attended weapons collectors shows, to being a kind of 'worlds fair' of these events. This coupled with our own annual dinner and event have helped advance this perspective, along with other related events that tend to tap into the comprehensive presence of international collectors.

BALTIMORE is the ONE!!!

All best regards,
Jim

If I really do make it to Vegas, I'll let everyone know what it's like.

Thanks guys.

It is not in the US, but if London, England is an option your license would allow, then your first choice would be the Park Lane Arms Fair on March 1.

Hmmm, I'd have to bring her along if I went to the UK,....and then she would know what I bought,.....and then I would have to give her a matching amount of $$$ for her shopping

It will have to be the US.

Cheers and happy holidays to all,

Greg
