i will be there Saturday morning. Hope the Bay Bridge doesnt suck

That's what concerns me-traffic. Anyone local to the bridge available to give a traffic update and guesstimate for Saturday AM?

John from MD · Nov 6, 2019

Plan to go early, stop at Cracker Barrel for breakfast and you shouldn't have any problems.

Check the traffic cameras. Also, there is a facebook page by a lady who gives updates of the backups search for
"Chesapeake Bay Bridge Traffic"

Has anyone been to this show in the past year?
Last month I went to the one in Timonium and unfortunately there was literally nothing. Last time that I was there was back in 2012 and my God the difference in number of people and vendors comparing to 2019 was day and night. The show back in 2012 was similar to the one in Dulles VA couple of month ago.
Don't get me wrong I'm not complaining but sadly it was super small

I might go to this time. Usually it was during the youth/duck hunt as far back as I can remember. Ill be looking for cool Shtuff that nobody wants or likes anymore.

John from MD · Nov 6, 2019

This show has quite a bit of collectable non military guns. The last couple of years it has had more modern stuff but not like the big shows have. If you are looking for a upscale shotgun or a collectable Winchester, you can find it here. I believe a Delaware full auto company also shows up but I may be mixing up shows.

I went last year and it was very small. As John said mostly collectibles. That said, I don't want to discourage anyone from going. I will probably be there on Sunday because I have to be in Easton anyway. Never know what you might find.

That's surprising to hear, but I guess it shouldn't be. I used to go to this show with my dad every year when I was a kid. It took up one whole wing of the building back then, but that has admittedly been 25 years ago now. At that point it was a lot of hunting guns but it was the Eastern Shore in the 80s and early 90s so that's not surprising.

Back then it was is a small room. Now it fills up one side of the rec center which includes a indoor ice skating rink.

There are still hunting rifles and shotguns for sale, just not that many of them. Back in the day, members and others would bring their stuff for sale and there were more individuals selling than businesses. Now you have more businesses because many people are keeping their guns these days. ( we all know why too) :innocent0

John from MD · Nov 8, 2019

I plan to be there around 915, after the line goes down. I've frozen enough times standing in lines at gun shows.

Mr.Smalls · Nov 8, 2019

I'll be there selling one of my lever guns. If you see the guy with the 1860 ' Henry' say hi

John from MD · Nov 8, 2019

It's a good place to sell that rifle. Another is the Allentown collectors show. A little bit of a ride but well worth it.

Zorros · Nov 9, 2019

My wife said she was really looking forward to going with me ( she’s willing to go). Will be there.

toppkatt · Nov 9, 2019

Some buddies and I are going. Traffic looks pretty good. I like it because of the older non-black rifle items. I've bought a Savage 1899 and a Browning A5 there. I think I got pretty good deals. It is not where I'd go looking for AR's though they are showing up in recent shows because that's what is being manufactured today, no more steel and walnut. What a shame, but then the market determines what sells...

hchon3 · Nov 9, 2019

If you are going please let me know if you happen upon a heel stamp polytech m14

Zorros · Nov 9, 2019

Went and liked it. Saw a couple of revolvers, a SAA and an old combat mag with 2.5”. Wife eventually went to watch the skaters. Saw very nice m1 carbines. Original. Bought nothing. Hadfun.

John from MD · Nov 9, 2019

I didn't buy anything but there were some good deals to be had. I did get to see some old friends including Jeff (banned, I forgot his MDS name).

He is still hurting from a procedure where they replaced just about all of his blood. He's still got a great attitude and is still getting plenty of prayers from me.

toppkatt · Nov 9, 2019

I went and bought a Remington 700 in .30-06. It looked brand new and had a scope and a nice stock. I bought it because I'm building a rifle in 6.5 Creedmoor and was going to use a commercial large ring Mauser 98 action, but none of the chassis stocks use this receiver, the best I could find was Remington 700. I went online and a new receiver only; was going to cost me $325 to 400 and this rifle was $450. I could sell the stock, barrel and scope, so it was a win/win for me.
