Just so you're aware, the gun show at the Phila Armory, originally scheduled for this weekend (5/22 & 23) has been cancelled.

 

May 28 & 29 - Bristol, PA / Kings Caterers. This is an Appalachian Promotions show. I've been to this one twice and even though it is a small show (250 tables) I really liked it. The size seemed to distill out the junk - small but good.

 

For our more northern brethren - run across 22/78 and there is another small show in Wind Gap, PA at the Wind Gap Social Hall. I've never been to this one, but I know a lot of people on this board really favor the Eagle Arms shows and that is who is promoting this one. Probably smaller than their Allentown show (Rodeway Inn) - but remember, bigger isn't always better.

 

June 5 & 6 - You get a two-fer. Two shows in Allentown that weekend. A large show at the PA Expo Center @ 501 Cetronia Rd and a smaller show at the Rodeway Inn. The larger show is trying to re-establish itself and is struggling somewhat. It is an Appalachian Promotions show. The one at the Rodeway Inn is Eagle Arms and this is the one people, on this board, seem to like. Too crowded for my taste and if it was the only show I probably wouldn't attend, but having two in close proximity makes it worthwhile to journey up to (for me) Allentown, PA.

 

June 11, 12 & 13 - The big one - Valley Forge, enough said.

 

The Harrisburg Gun Show is also that weekend (Sat & Sun only) for those that really want to travel. Harrisburg is a MAACS show, which is the same outfit that had the gunshow in Oaks, PA last week (5/15 & 16).

 

Think that I'll probably do the Bristol show (fairly close and easy to get to) and the Allentown shows, as well as Valley Forge. These things would be a lot more fun if I had money.

 

Enjoy.

 

Adios,

Thanks for the info. I may check out the Bristol Show on the 29th.

Thanks for that bob.

 

I really like the Allentown shows, esp if they are Eagle Arms. I have gone to the Bristol show and it is pretty good, and quite close for central jersey folks. Picked up a few mosins there before. Will be there. And most likely the week after at the two allentown shows, although most likely, just the Eagle Arms show.

These things would be a lot more fun if I had money.

 

:text-+1: You got that right! I'll have to check my schedule!
