OAC Collector Gun SHow

Post by marlinman93 »

The annual Oregon Arms Collectors show is this Sat.-Sun. the 24th-25th! One of the finest gun shows in the country, and well worth the small $8 fee, with free parking! It's a highly regulated show, so there's no black guns, or beef jerky, peanuts, or jewelry. Just lots of blued steel and walnut, and mostly old stuff. Plus about 30 really nice displays of fine firearms.
I am displaying some engraved Marlin Ballard single shot rifles, and their accessories this year.
If you're close enough to Portland, Or. to make it, you wont regret it!

There is a gate entrance with a fee, but the fee is validated inside the show at entry, so no charge to attendees.
Directions and times to the two day show can be found here:

Dang, I'd like to see that marlinman. But that's the weekend of our buffalo shoot at the COSSA range east of Bend and I can't miss that.

No big purchases at the show, but lots of temptations. I did find an old 1800's Wm. Malcolm telescope that has beautiful optics, but missing the rear mount. So now I'll have another project trying to track down a rear mount to make it complete!
