Default Red Deer Gun Show

Yes I know, I should have marked it on the calender, but where and when is the Red Deer Gun Show? Seems to me it was this upcoming weekend.

You got it right. It's this weekend (May 3,4) at the Westerner. 10am - 5pm on Saturday and 10am - 3pm on Sunday if I'm not mistaken.

Might be true, but if we don't support it, probably never will.

I wouldn't know if I didn't go would I? Stettler and Hanna have far better Gun Shows.I find the RD show over priced with limited firearms to choose from.Backyard BUBBA customized military collectables now not fit for staking up tomatoes.It was a good show back in the 80's.I'm hardly a babe in the woods reguarding gun shows..................Harold

Default Gun Show Success

Well the show was this weekend and it was the best yet! Was it great maybe not but it had a good turn out more tables some out to lunch prices and some good. Dale / Sportsmans Den had some good deals going and Back country had some high priced tompsons but good selection.

Highlight was UFA they have made the buy of Wholesale Sports and are stocking up the Red Deer Expansion with a full line of outdoors gear and a Gun Department that was good to hear. Pincher Creek will Also have one in the new UFA the WSS name will stay on the existing stores

Best news I have heard in a long while for Red Deer! as far as sporting goods go. It should mean WSS selection and the outlet in every town will keep WSS competative with Bass Pro he said they will be a service orientated store !!! COOL says I

Nice little show, with a ggod crowd and I didn't have to pay 11 bucks to Park. Who left all those junker cars out in the parking lot?
