Thanks for checking our Show Schedule.

There is no better way to truly enjoy our hobby, than to attend a "quality" Antique Arms Show. Besides being able to view and actually handle many high quality artifacts, the collector is able to rub elbows and discuss their interests with most major dealers, authors, and fellow collectors. The amount of experience and knowledge gained at a weekend show, is worth not only the price of admission, but the airfare, food and lodging. It cannot be replaced by the serious collector.  Besides the antique arms venues, Civil War shows are almost always packed with items ranging from the 1750's through the Indian Wars, ( 1898 ). If you are unable to travel, check your local papers for a local gun show. Although many of the local shows also supply modern arms to hunters and sportsman, there are always some antiques to be found.     

Most collectors know the best shows. We cannot attend all of them, but can certainly recommend the ones that we feel are the best:

1. Baltimore. Md. Regardless of what you hear about the strict rules and hard floors, this is hands-down the best All-Antique Arms show in the world. 
2. Las Vegas, Nv. Three times per year, with the winter show right up with Baltimore. Antique and sporting arms. Riviera Hotel and Casino. 
3. Denver. Long recognized for its outstanding displays. A great education every 20 tables or so. 
4. Hartford, Ct. The most underated show. Great facility, 1 minute from downtown. Already one of the best, this show needs to be supported by all collectors.
5. Louisville, Ky. The fastest growing show. Great facility for antique and sporting arms. One of the largest shows in the country, and all collectors are taking note.
6. Pottstown, Pa. One of the oldest and well known shows. Knowledgable collectors and dealers. Not a big show, just quality items and people.
7. Texas Gun Collectors Association Show. On the small side, but these guys are serious collectors, and Texas history is wonderfull. 
8. Civil War Show. I only do the 3 big ones. Ashland, Ohio, Gettysburg, Pa. and Nashville, Tn. winter show. Uniforms, drums, images, revolvers, swords, etc.
