I've never had much luck finding out about local gun shows, etc... until AFTER they are over. Is there some way that I can find out when sportsmans or gun or other shows of interest to an outdoorsman are scheduled for and where. I live just south of Albany NY, so anywhere in the capital region is within reasonable travel distance.

Thanks

Not sure what's near you... but try performing a search on www.yahoo.com for the organization or exhibition center that hosts the show.

Many times they will have a schedule with all the info you will need.

As far as a list put out by the show? I think I remember seeing something to that effect last year... but for the life of me... I have no idea where I saw the link. Sorry.

Good luck.

Check out www.sportshows.com This is the link for the Paul Fuller shows, Rockland would be the closest to you up there but it is a biggie. I will try to contact my cousine to get some of the gun show dates, he is a gun show groupie.

I think--don't quote me on this--that the Empire State Plaza is holding one the last weekend in January. I work down there, so I'll find out.

..Went to a local gun show yesterday,they were higher than new prices,on used guns,...<img src=icon_smile_sad.gif border=0 align=middle>..

..JESUS IS COMING BACK BE READY...

Do you have a date when Jesus is coming back? Will he be touring gun shows?

jbc, stay off the board. That comment was rude and pointless.

King Hugh,
The American Rifleman has a feature that lists local gunshows.
There is a gunshow at the Poughkeepsie Civic Center on Jan 19 and 20.

If I had kept my mouth shut for another day I would have answered my own question. America's First Freedom Magazine (NRA Mag) had a list in the back. For others interested:

Poughkeepsie Civic Center: Jan 19 & 20
Albany, Empire Plaza Convention Center: Jan 26 & 27

Thanks for all the help.

I'm sorry, I didn't know this was your board. Lighten up, it was a joke, pointless, but not rude.
