Puyallup Gun Show

Wacenturion, the show is good size and well worth going to. It will take you most of a day to see all the guns, tends to be very crowded.

The portland shows are always big. Lots of guns and lots of gear. SO good buys if you know what to look for. Rose city gun shows and collectors west are the ones who put them on. There is one pretty much every month.

I've been a WAC member for 20 some odd years, I've had tables at the Puyallup and also gone to just browse. It is one of the largest shows in the PNW.
  One thing not noted in this thread is the fact that WAC is also politically active and has saved the collective butts of All of WA shooters/ firearms owners more than a few times.
So while you might think $35.00 is too much for a years membership, or the entry fee is too much, remember the WAC is on your side and fighting the anti gunners in Olympia on your behalf.

 +1    Very good point.

That's what I was looking for.  Been to the Portland show a few years ago.  I realize Puyallup isn't as big, but at least big enough from the sounds of it, to keep one busy looking for several hours.

Again....appreciate all the comments.

I've been to the Puyallup show 3 or 4 times in the last couple years and while I like the amount of vendors and guns, I can't really say I have seen a lot of great deals to be had there.  It amazes me how many tables have a used Model 700 or A bolt 7 mag and they have it marked for $25 less than I can buy it new online.  The same thing for random boxes of ammo - a four year old box of 9mm  for $2 more than what it costs at Walmart.

I have found some pretty good deals on reloaded ammo from the boys down in Washougal.
