The date for the show has been changed by a couple weeks to clear up a couple scheduling conflicts that the previously announced date created.
We hope that this new date will be compatible for everyone.
Also, watch this thread for further details and announcements as they become available.

What kind of airgun crowd is this show intended for? ISSF, airsoft, paintball, etc.?
Primarily vintage airgun collectors, ISSF shooters, FT shooters, general airgun plinkers, and pretty much everything in between. If it shoots a pellet or BB, using air, CO2 or spring-air, it's included.

Occasionally, airsoft guns might be seen at the show, and sometimes even paintball guns or accessories, but these are in the minority.
 
The flyer for the show. Please feel free to print some of these out and distribute them to interested people in your area, or to post them to other (Canadian) forums that I do not frequent.

Please note that name tags will be available at the admissions table, for those who would like to have them.

Note as well, the procedure for those wishing to shoot on the range. After you have read and signed the Club's waiver form, you will be given a brightly coloured wrist band. No wristband, no shooting on the range.

Cool, I'm just down the road, I'll get the old man out as well, a perfect excuse to come down and trout fish too! Between the two of us we have: BSA Airsporter, Diana Model 34 & 54, and Webly Tempest. I didn't even know that there was as much interest in air guns around here.

By all means, come on down and join in on the fun.
I wouldn't count on doing any fishing though - the ponds are ahead of the firing line for the airgun ranges, and will be out of bounds for the duration of the show.

All tables are now spoken for... :D .

I have yet to hear from one commercial vendor whom I e-mailed, and will update the thread when I know anything.

is the show going on for sure even though its supposed to rain all day? :cry:
I've had some e-mails, PMs and telephone calls about this, so your question gives me the perfect intro.. :wink:

Yes - the show is a go - rain or shine. The actual show is competely indoors, so there is no problem in that regard.

The shooting range will still be available as well - but instead of being out in the open on the trap range, as it was last fall, we will be using the small building to the west of the main clubhouse. This will allow the shooters to stay dry despite the weather, and shoot out through the opened shooting ports. The number of shooters at the line will have to be limited, so everyone will have to take their turn, and rotate through. There will still be an array of reactive targets set up.

So, come on out and have a blast.
