Thanks for posting. Someone was telling me about this show a couple of weeks ago, and I hope to see it.
Its kind of bad on my part I live about 15 to 20 miles from Claridge, and never knew this went on there, until a couple of weeks ago.

This will be the 2nd year at this location. Previously, it was held at Bushy Run Battlefield.

I'm lucky I can hit Colton Hall where it's at with a rock from my house. Even when it was at the Bushy Run Battlefield museum it was still only 1/2 mile from my house. It's a nice show, not super big but just as big as the one at Old Bedford Village in April.


The first week end in August theirs the Bushy Run Battle re-enactment at Bushy Run State Park it's really nice also. They have quite a few vendors their selling muzzleloader stuff, plus all kinds of other stuff. It's a good time also.

I can't really tell from the web site....but do they have vendors here that sell M\L parts 'n stuff? You know, new parts, used parts, whole guns or is this more of a gun maker show?

Thanks.

The Bushy Run show has always been mostly an original rifle show. There are some contemporary makers and horners, but mostly old, original guns.
