Listen up people!!!! I just went to the Tampa show at the fairgrounds and I have never seen so many people in my life at the show and I used to be a dealer! If the West Palm Beach show is ANYTHING like Tampa, You better get there early and be ready to buy! By 2p Sunday the dealers couldn’t sell anymore because of the FDLE background check would was saying it would be 24-36hrs. If you see something you like you better buy it cause the guy next to you might !!

I travel from Fort Lauderdale a couple times a year to go here. It is the best show in South Florida. $10 bucks to get in and there is plenty of room to move around. The War Memorial Show is gone, don’t let this one disappear! Get out and enjoy your rights to be a free people!

Been to the WPB Gun Show and always have a good time. I seem to find what I need in there. Sure it’s crowded, but c’mon people it’s a gun show! So many vendors to choose from and I always come home with something. I live in the Treasure Coast area. Try going to one of their shows! Absolutely a waste of time, trust me.

It is better without Shoot Straight. More unusual finds now that their table space is filled with smaller dealers. Best show for finding collectible firearms and militaria. I am giving 5 Stars to offset the review which is obviously from someone at Shoot Straight.

I ALWAYS LIKED THIS SHOW. WIDE ISLES, DECENT FOOD, PLENTY OF FREE PARKING. IT HAS A GOOD SELECTION OF GUNS. AT THE LAST SHOW I GOT A DARN GOOD PRICE FOR SOME OF MY USED GUNS AND FAIR PRICING ON THE ONES I WANTED TO BUY FROM A NEW VENDOR, RPS GUNS. THEY DIDN’T TREAT ME LIKE A PIECE OF DOG MEAT, DIDN’T TRY TO CHEW ME DOWN ON EVERYTHING AND WERE VERY FAIR AND KNOWLEDGABLE. LOOK FORWARD TO THIS SHOW.

Big show w/lots of guns, I was in the market for a Sig P938, there were a few there but not at the price I was willing to pay. The prices were standard, no deals ,I could buy that gun at those prices In my town (PSL) any day of the week.. I still had some fun, & would go back, Maybe next time there might be some deals, if not no problem you keep your guns & stuff & I’ll keep my cash.

No private party sales without a concealed licence. Avoid.

You drove out Shoot straight and Florida gun exchange, and now it just sucks. Plus your putting to many other things in there to fill spots. We want to see guns and knives not crap that you can find at any flee market.

I agree less crap and more firearms and firearm accessories like holsters,
straps, optics, sights, and conceal carry accessories. Please.

Every time I went to show too hectic, rude venders , too high an entrance fee . Still better than gander man prices!

Plenty of parking, easy to move around inside, cafeteria that you can actually sit down and relax, not like a lot of the shows that pack you in like cattle! I only go twice a year but this one of the best in South Florida. Always something I need there and always something I buy!

Great show with plenty of firearms and accessories.

It was even better when Florida Gun Exchange attended and Shoot Straight had more tables.

Well, I went to the gun show today. It was great. No concert going on, so parking was great. Busy but not too crowded. Vendors were actually in good moods! Ammo prices were good & firearm prices seem to be going down still. Picked up two more AR mags & some real cheap range 5.56. 6.99 PMC 20 round. Good time. Everybody was pleasant & no douchebags! Well done Palm Beach!

I would say you can get pretty much everything you need but actual Deals and hard to find. A few of the WPB – Jupiter shops will usually do good deals on used guns. It’s mostly new stuff and some of the sellers are in denial about prices coming down.
When the larger seller decided to have deals on new you can do very well getting new.
You can definitely get ammo at reasonable prices there’s a few specialist that have volume incentive.
The AR stuff is hit or miss but lately there’s 2-3 guys with the nicer “working man’s class items” I always seem to buy something from them because I appreciate them tracking down the decent chinese and lower price American parts. 2 of them are real nice and helpful.

As far as having AR work done there is one Guy who is expensive and kind of an A-hole but does good work in a pinch.
I’m sorry I don’t want to name vendors becuase it not a commercial but if you take you time going thru you’ll see what I mean.
Optics are a kind of a joke becuase you have a couple cheapo chinese flea market type sellers.
1 guy has low inventory of good quality stuff eotech, trijicon but he could care less and has a miserable attitude and hi prices.
Recently there was a new table with vortex inventory but I didn’t stop to check prices.

I was at the CWL at 10 am was too many peoples trying to get the Training for this Class the Instructor was a lady very knowledgeable of what she was doing, but having so many applicant was not a easy task. Also a lot of the applicants I can see they never had a gun in their hands so firing one shot won’t help much. I suggest maybe in future class smaller group will get more benefits out of this training and I give a very STRONG recommendation for some of the applicants to take a more deep training in how to handle a gun shooting and maintenance. But I enjoy my self checking and very lows prices
