Vince. I have never made the November show as it snows a lot between Reno and Cedar City,but the show is 100% professionally run and one of the best. I did the show twice a year for near 8 years until I had a decline in my health. The hotel offers many amenities and there are many places to eat and gamble if you like that kind of thing. The food is great and the hotel has just about all one would need. I highly recommend this show. Lots of real nice folks there. Big Larry

Also, there is the complimentary Awards Buffet on Saturday night for all WACA members.  WACA hosts the grub and there is a no-host bar.  Very informal get-together.

I am thinking to get a table at the Reno Show, I hope it is not too late at this time, I have to wait the answers from a friend of mind get back from deer hunting first, to ask him if he can go to the show with me, it take 9 hours of driving if the weather provide otherwise will be a lot longer. I want to go to Reno show just to bring my 1876 which was restored by D.T. and other Winchester rifles I have to display and may be sell some off.

All you have to worry about is the weather. I live in Cedar City, Utah and it is a 500 mile drive for me right down HWY 50, but it snows in November and I never wanted to get caught in it, so I never did the November show. Did all the rest though. If you do drive it, just be careful and you will get to one of the best gunshows around. Lots of good folks do that show and many are displayers. Big Larry

Good luck to you Sir. I know you will have a great time there. I always did. Show is good for sellers as well as buyers. Never carried much of what I brought, back after the show. Always managed to buy a few guns too. Some real nice stuff shows up at that show in Reno. Any of the three show times.  Big Larry
