    Thought I'd put this up for everyone. I know it's small but it's the last show on the shore that I know of and I'm trying to keep it alive. If you get a chance on the shore, come on out. Any questions, I'm happy to help.

    I try to go every year but the selection is kind of limited. If your in the market for an antique it's great. The amount of modern firearms is pretty low though. I think last years they had a few MSRs. I guess it depends on what you're into. It also seems as though it's gotten smaller over the years. I grew up in Easton and still go to the Waterfowl Festival every year. The gun show used to take up the entire back corner of the TCCC. They've remodeled a lot since the 90s. I'll go this year for sure. I can usually find something I need.

    It could be made into a day trip. Go for the guns and stay for the dock dogs, goose calling competition, artwork, food, wine, booze (St. Michaels has a distillery). It's worth the trip over the bridge.

    Got a hell of a deal on a Marlin 45-70 in Stainless a year or two ago, I'll be back again. This is more a hunter's show bringing out the $$ antiques and whatnot for the folks that the waterfowl festival brings in. It definitely works.

    Maryland State Rifle and Pistol will be there. Stop by and take a chance on a M1 Carbine. Only 400 tickets printed. Cost per ticket is $10.00. Winner will be drawn when all tickets have been sold. All money goes to funding current lawsuits pending 2A issues in Maryland.

    One of my favorite shows. A couple of my side-by-sides came from there (and there is a reason I have the username sxs). Also picked up a nice Mannlicher Schoenauer there a few years back. A few of my favorite collectors/dealers no longer there. I haven't seen Doc with his collection of Colt SAAs there last couple years. My old trading buddy Dennis still sets up, though, even though he sells more collectible shells and other items than firearms these day.

    It really isn't a 'modern sporting arm' show although in recent years you'll see a few. It more an old hunting gun and collectible gun gunshow.

    And, FYI, I always enjoyed the waterfowl festival itself. The carving alone are worth the admission. Then the Dock dogs, retriever demos, etc are also quite interesting.

    I went once. You will find most of the old stuff being hunting rifles and shotguns.

    This show is pretty much all c&r. If it's the same as last year, there will be two or three modern dealers and the rest are private dealers. They are usually selling their collections. A lot of old shotguns and rifles, some Luger's, m1 carbines other C& R's. Depends on who's there.

    After the show, you can drive east on 50 for a couple of miles and check out Shore Sportsman on your right. They have used and new rifles and pistols and I have found many good deals there.

    Go a little further east on 50, turn right down Dover road and stop a bit short of the road blocks preventing traffic in the center of town (you can usually find on street parking there....most festival goers are routed elsewhere and ride buses). From there it is a short walk to Albrights. Lots'a great old guns and fancy trap guns plus a few miscellaneous firearms

    Visited both these shops 2 weeks ago and was severely disappointed in the new and used selections at both shops. Shore Sportsman is full-on crazy price wise now and Albright's was extremely light selection-wise. Hopefully both have improved since then. Albright's usually has a bunch of stuff on GunsAmerica that isn't displayed in the store.

    Hmmm, sometimes Albrights is lighter on stock than other times, but usually quite a few interesting older or used firearms.
