Will you be there again this year ?

30 Apr - 01 May 2011

One of the biggest and best shows in the country !!
 
Show Date

Is this show different than the HACCS show? 'cause the one just held in Chilliwack sucked. Unless you like buying old used crap for more than new price or cheap knock off crap for brand name prices. I keep hoping for something more realistic. I did buy one over priced recoil pad though, just because.
 
I went to the Kamloops show last year, and I wasn't terribly impressed...I thought the recent one in Chilliwack was great though! (and a lot closer)
 
Lots of stuff and big dollars on most.
The smoking deals the dealers scoop up before the show starts.
They get to see the merchandise before the general public.
The Salmon Arm show is good.
Decent prices too.
There is suppose to be one in Lumby or Armstrong as well.
Not sure on this one.
Will consider it this year if there is one.
 
Thanks CanAmmo.

That was the intent of my initial question. Thanks for responding.

Paul and the CANAMMO team are great ... yes, I am a recent (= Dec10) GRIZZLY purchaser.

It is worth the day-trip to Kamloops ... from the Okanagan. Last year, BC CFO folks were on-site for almost-immediate transfers of restricteds and ATTs to take your purchase home. I don't know about this year.

Do the CFOs in other provinces do that ??

Cheers,

Go CANUCKS .... and Kelowna ROCKETS !



I will be at Kamloops.
 
I will be there. I had a table last year. I blew out all my stuff at rock bottom prices. The only problem is you end up having to sit there with two items left on Sunday......
They give you grief if you bug out to early...
I allways think of these shows as a great way to learn about firearms and see a few cool rare items. I allways learn somthing and if you take the time to talk with the "crusty old sellers" You may learn a thing or too also. If you go only to find below cost items this is not the right event for you. Seriously though how many times do gun nutz get the chance to go to a large organized gun focused event?
 
Just got back from the show in Vagas . After you seen American hospitality, it's hard to beat. The supplyers were great,the people were wonderful and the whole atmopspher was great. The part that amazed me was the amount that they knew about our problems up here and trhe failing of the long gun vote. They have a lot of problems down there from the capital to the local laws but they are sticking together on these issues.
With an up-comming election we can learn the same thing.
 
sooo whats supposed to be so great about gun shows? are there smoking deals to be had on hardware and accessories? havent been to one.
 
The best part of gunshows is the great people you meet that turn into lifelong friends. On top of that you just never know what shows up that you must add to your collection or hunting gear.

x2 Pardon my grammar but, .. ain't that the truth.

Plus the many antique type goodies for "she who must be obeyed".

My wife and I ( = 2 x RPAL) will be attending the Kamloops show. Not too sure about PG Gun Show one week later, it's more than a day-trip from home in central Okanagan.

:cheers:
