Will there be many holster manufacturers at this show?
Thanks,
Greg
Greg having been to this show many times, most of the tables are antiques and collectibles items but there are some holsters for sale too. As far as new manufactured holster dealers – not at this show.
There is a holster dealer out of Indiana that will be here,they are a first time vender. this is a changing show we new promoters.
Conceal carry is not allowed in show, i was told its safer this way.SAFER FOR WHO,THE BAD GUYS? They dont follow rules very hypocritical not for me
Sir I have been to show thru out this country as a vender and a buyer and know there are very few shows that allow the public to bring loaded guns into show. We have armed security at the show for protection. Also are insurance doesn’t aloud for this.
Unless you are a serious collector with at least $3-5,000 then stay away and save your $8.00 admission fee. The collectors are showcasing their collections “not for sale” so patrons can ooh, and aah!
I wasted time going 60 miles one way, wasted time spent there, and had 2 stars worth of fun.
I hope this helps those of you on the fence–this was my last CADA Show.
Sir we do have collector guns, but we also have new dealers with new guns. This show is changing and we are trying to get dealers that can satisfy everybody needs. We want to keep it a quality show with the best dealers possible.
Save your money….. Junk fest..
This used to be a very high quality show where you would see amazing guns. Unfortunately it has slipped to the point it is no longer any getter than your average little hick-town show. That may be a little harsh but it is nowhere near what it used to be when lots of the big name venders participated.
This show has made a good come back
This is by far the best “high end” gun show in Illinois!
Much smaller than when there was actually a viable C.A.D.A. (collectors arms dealers assn.) Only one or two of the much anticipated eye candy dealers have returned. I do applaud the efforts of the current promoters, as there can never be too many gun shows. However, quality has slipped substantially to the realm of the local monthly shows.
Would not recommend this show admission 60% higher other shows. Went last year and was disappointed, gave it a second chance and was equally disappointed. It’s the first show I attended and did not purchase anything. Save your money and time, go to the Kane county, Wheaton, or McHenry shows.
I have only been to 3 gun shows. I enjoyed the history that was there. Bought a few things. Didn’t pay what the vendors were asking. I don’t know the value of alot of guns,but the ones I do know. Vendors were asking way to much. For example,M&P 15 BRAND NEW out of the box goes for aound $600.00 -$650.00. If not less. One vendor was asking over $1,000.00 for a stock rifle.
And talking to venders ,they’re big complaint was the cost for them to set up a booth there.
Went to the last show. And I knew to expect a collector’s show. Lots of interesting antique firearms to see. There were also some vendors with modern and new firearms.
The only thing I didn’t like was the folks at the entrance fee table PUSHING an entry into “free vacation” give away…. It’s a SCAM. It’s nothing more than a push to sell timeshares. And there’s some guy calling everyone who filled out a form. The guy called a friend who went to the show with me just before calling me, so I knew what to expect. First of all, it’s not a “free” anything. They do try to solicit money from you via credit card.
