Hello all. I just found a link about the Baltimore antique arms show that will be happening March 21 and 22.  Since I live about 1 1/2 hours from the show, I figured that I might as well take a drive and see how it is. Have any WACA members attended this show? Thoughts on the quality of the show?

Kevin,

I attended Baltimore show in 2024 and bought a couple nice Winchesters.  What’s nice about this show is there are no modern guns, just C&R, and antique.

The show is a five hour drive from me here in Western Pa. Beings you live so close, you should check it out.

I recognize some of those faces, just not the names.

Thanks for the recommendations, guys. Looks like I’ll be making the trip to check it out. It will be refreshing to go to a show that doesn’t have AR’s and AK’s. Sounds like it could be dangerous for my bank account!

I use to drive down from Philadelphia and it was always one of the best on the east coast and I would see dealers that I didn’t see here in PA, our best is Allentown

Is it a big show, how many tables?  How long would it take to walk it and see everything?

Thanks

All depends on how fast one walks and how quickly one can process what is going on on the tables.

Been through the show 2x’s in a day with plenty of time to spare

The Baltimore show is a good antique gun show. It’s less than 1 1/2 hr easy drive for me. I have a table there the past few years since moving back east. I just drive back and forth. It’s worth the trip.
