    Ridiculous that I had to drive an hour and 15 minutes, to find out the Show was Cancelled when I got there. How about announcing it here so people don’t end up wasting gas getting there.

    I know this show is small but I like it. You can find the general items that you would expect at a gun show. There was a daughter/mother team that was a lot of fun and is going to ship me what I need. I do have to mention that there was a vendor selling baseball bats covered in barbed wire and nails which I found very shady and questionable. I feel that takes away from the quality of the show so I would have given this show 3 stars but since Karen is giving me the personal service of shipping to me I am giving it 4 stars. Keep up the good work but get rid of those horrific bats!

    April 2018 I attended this gun show. Based on the reviews I was optimistic. I have to say I enjoyed it! There were a lot of vendors and plenty of variety. I overheard other people talking about how it was a big improvement from prior visits. Looking forward to the next show.

    This show always has less professional dealers and more Junk dealers/collectors…. So one one side of the coin you get interesting and hard to find deals on cool guns…. On the other side you have mostly unfriendly, bitter fat and old guys who hate the world that stand there with scowls on their faces and arms crossed….. Don’t expect too much in the way of customer service or good conversation. As usual there are good ammo deals to be had, and due to proximity to the city you will find more small caliber weapons at better prices than other shows. It seems that half the tables are not selling guns or ammo…. But thats ok with me as I like the variety of stuff,…. AND I an a prepper/outdoorsman so I can get camping gear there, not just Guns.

    Well against better judgement I went to the show at the ARMORY. It should be listed as the knife show. More tables with knives and the gun vendors have the cheapest pistols I have seen some are knockoffs made in Turkey or Mexico. I was at one table wanting to look at what I believe was a German 98 Mauser but could have been a capture but on the receiver bore the eagle with the swastika was there it appeared to be made in 1944. Trying to get someone who would assist in verifying well I tried for thirty minutes then said forget it. If you want to kill time and not care what they have that’s the show to go to.

    Really not a great selection or great prices. Compared to gun stores. It was my first gun show and overall not impressed. Was like a flea market with a few guns and 0 space to move freely. Mostly swords knives and knuckleheads.
    I’ll stick to the brick and mortars shops with firing ranges.

    NJ residents with NJ Firearms ID card can buy rifles/shotguns in PA with a background check. You must have your FID card and NJ DL with you. NJ gun owners can’t buy handguns outside the state except thru a NJ gun dealer. So no handgun purchases unless u have it shipped to your NJ dealer. Make sure the gun is NJ compliant so no mags over 15 rounds for example. ARs must not have bayonet lugs or flash suppressors. And when driving home make sure gun is stored in trunk unloaded & any ammo separate container.

    Yes I must say I started going to the show here because I live in Philly and secondly I have a spinal.disorder that really limits the distance of my driving areas. When I first started going there were a lot of tables with very new and older firearms that would keep me interested for at least two – four hours. Now like the other review stated all I see are beef jerky and meat stands knives that are obviously overpriced the only tables with trinkets for sale that I stop and shop are run by veterans. The gun dealers are really obnoxious and outright rude and it seems that the majority of them don’t even want to.answer questions. My opinion on that is most of them have their daughters or some female there to draw customers but most shooters realize neither of them have a clue a what they are trying to sell they hand you a business card that goes right in the trash. So that’s my story and I’m sticking to it.

    The gun show at the Armory in NE Phila pales in comparison to the gun show held regularly at the Philadelphia Expo Center at the Oaks in Phoenixville. No offense to the merchants I met today at the Armory but the weapons they were selling looked like what a civilian militia from the 1920’s – 1950’s might have carried into battle. Lots of old guns for sale. .
