Eastern Ontario Gun Show

Sorry!  I should have posted this earlier.

Sunday, June 4, 9:00 AM to 3:30 PM VanKleek Hill Arena, 36 Mill St.   Admission $5.

It's called the Champlain Gun Show.  I was there last year, and it was very good - especially for a first effort.  Higginson Powders will have a table, and last year there was an unofficial representative of Marstar at the Higginson table as well.
Hunting is Exciting!  Bolt actions are BORING!!
Don't mix the two!

I went to the show this morning, and had a great time.

I think it was a little smaller than last year, but the Marstar display was very impressive and I may be buying something from them shortly. I was very impressed with the LeMat handgun replica they had that was a .44 calibre cap-and-ball nine-shooter with a 20 gauge under barrel. The $1200 price tag scared me off though.

All I came home with was a set of dies from Higginson. Too many bolt action rifles to interest me!
