Bel Air show?

[kingfish]

Has anyone heard when the next Bel Air show is?

 

[newmuzzleloader]

If I remember right, it's usually the first week in Feb.

I was told it was the last weekend in January and into Feb.

I went last year and it was a complete waste of time for me. I made one lap around and left. Mostly hunting rifles and way over priced SKS and Ak variants. It was super crowded too.

Bel Air Gun Show??

Has anyone else been to the Bel Air show? Where do they have it in Bel Air? Any other info is appreciated. First time I have heard of a gun show in Bel Air. Thx.

Edit: I forgot it moved to the Armory...

 

[redneckhunter]

also have it at the armory in town of belair that used to be a good show havent been in yrs tho

 

[kingfish]

It hasn't been very good in the past few years but I've found such great deals before, that I feel I need to go. Almost feel like I owe the show LOL

Last year, that show was significantly overpriced but this was right in the middle of panic buying post-Newtown and during OweMaoLi's kabuki show known as SB281. Still, this show isn't a great one (mostly because it's crowded) but I like supporting good small town gunshows.

The show is sponsored by the Harford County Chapter of Izaak Walton League. They previously held it at American Legion Post 39 but it moved to the Bel Armory several years ago for a better venue.

Saw a sign for the Bel Air show - i believe it was Feb 1 and 2

They need a larger venue for this show, it's has good potential but you can't move much...

 

[downwind65]

I agree with Tman68. Last year was so crowded they would stop you at the door until some people came out "due to fire regs" once you were in it was really hard just getting to the tables and ammo prices were crazy! But there were still some decent deals there you just had to get to the tables to see them. Hopefully Jack's Guns will be there. He has always had some good deals.

I left the Bel Air show last year severely disillusioned with the retail firearms industry. I saw first hand buyers being bled and bled heavily by profiteering sellers. Let's say my eyes were opened in what to expect when the SHTF. I've been to one show since, a small friendly show I attend regularly. Some of my faith was restored.

I'll attend the Bel Air show this year but not expecting much different.

I was there last year and saw nothing too impressive, however the year before I picked up a OM Ruger Single Six Magnum only, w/box and original manual, for under $400.00. One good point is that the coffee up on the stage is generally good.

It's tiny like the one in Annapolis.

A good excuse to go to Du Claw for dinner

You need an excuse to go to DuClaw's for dinner?

 

[El_flasko]

A group of us usually head up and grab Bfast at the Greek diner first thing Saturday morning, then we hit the show, then hit Sean Bolans for a beer or twelve.

No mater where you go before or after the show its still a gun show in Maryland. Which means vendors are not going to bring those beautiful evil black guns and mags that are banned.
