Love to see some pics .
Purchased two shows ago. Couldn't attend last year. Prices on these ranged from $150 to $300. All three are in excellent condition and work perfectly.

Nice what’s the one on the bottom?
Those revolvers look like they would be very appropriate in an episode of Sherlock Holmes. In fact there is a picture of a nearly identical Belgian Bulldog in the Internet Firearms Database. Hopefully the link below works.

Nice.
That would be comforting in a great coat pocket if Dr Moriarty's henchmen came calling unexpectedly.

Bulldog Revolvers
If anybody actually shoots these old bulldogs and other old cartridge revolvers I could use a bit of advice.
I appreciate any pointers on what to look for, caliber to prefer/avoid when shopping at the show. I'm looking for a safe shooter at a good price. I think i would prefer a 45 or a 44. Cosmetics and rarity are secondary.
I have seen that 455 Webley ammo is still loaded by Fiocchi. I saw that 450 Adams and 442 RIC cases for sale. Oh my! Over a dollar each for empty brass.
I would assume that small amounts of Black Powder or substitutes are the safest bet as a propellant.
Guns that you can't shoot aren't so interesting. I'm not looking to shoot the gun a lot but a cylinder's worth on occasion would be ideal.

anyone setting up there?
Looks like I will be dropping by. Hopefully there will be something there that will fit my budget. Time to show my ignorance...How does it work purchasing an antique handgun there, same as a regular handgun with the 77r and 7 day wait, etc. I do have a C&R license if that makes a difference.

Great show for antiques and collectible firearms not many modern arms or supplies.
A rare picture of Dr. M on the way to the show....
The thought of UMBC in the NCAA Tournament on Friday and the Arms Show on Saturday are all that are getting me through this week at work.
T-4 days.
T-4 days.
Getting close... 3 days.
