What’s the most unique thing you’ve seen at Tulsa show?
Not necessarily gun related.
I’ll start with
The Remington Nylon rifle display.And a rattlesnake skin guitar.

A model 21 Winchester chambered in 22lr.

 

A factory cut away 1928 Thompson SMG. Told my buddy to buy it. He didn’t regrets it to this day

There is a guy who sells empty crown royal bags. His wife made a quilt from crown royal bags. Must have 2-300 empty bags on his table every show. Restored outboard motors, old Post office boxes etc. you name it, you will see it at Tulsa oh and a ton of guns

 

have a friend down there that has gone 52 times in succession - thats what he said , twice a year - 1500 mile trip , he always buys and most always sells something ,

 

Oh I bought a geode last year and a bottle of Mexican Vanilla

 

My grandparents ranch is covered in geodes. Wish I could go there today and load up a pickup full.

 

First day of show very busy.Walked from 8am to 5:15 non stop.20,000 steps.Saw top floor and some lower floor.
Stood outside for half hour in pelting rain,$15 entry fee,worth every penny and wetness

 

My friends and I always have a discussion on how stupid it is to pay admission to a gun show to look for something you want to buy. And now days because of the world wide web everybody thinks their stuff is worth collector prices. But we still pay it hoping to find that one great deal. It’s not like it used to be.

 

I have been to a bunch of shows in the Dallas/Ft.Worth area and what you say is fairly accurate but Wanamaker you will or can find good deals there.

 

Second day of show was less crowded.Better chance to browse.Another 8 hrs of gun related entertainment.

 

Truthfully I think you go for the adventure and meeting up with old friends. Finding a deal is secondary..

 

i agree - you go with friends and meet up with friends , yall look for what you want and grab up what strikes your fancy , with all those tables what could go wrong ?

 

Thanks to all that came by to meet and greet — glad to meet new faces - thx

 

As a first timer I really enjoyed being able to put some faces to names. Hopefully I’ll get to come back again.

 

I’ve only gone to gun shows in the valley in eastern North Dakota. They used to be really good and now they are tanking. Seems like more tables selling trinkets and just junk. I miss the old days (15-20yrs ago). But I can say the last show I found 4 deals and bought a GSG 1911. Now waiting for some nice weather to shoot it.

 

Looking forward to April 2026 already.

 

I'm here frustrated by not being able to attend the show last weekend. I've missed 3 shows in the past 15-20 years, don't really remember when I first started attending the show. It is one of the highlights of my year. I usually prefer the fall show, but don't ask me why; they have all been more or less great. I've bought a lot of gun related stuff over the years including 8-10 guns and a little unrelated stuff like Mexican Vanilla and an occasional jerky snack. Love the atmosphere of being surrounded by guns and gun people. Only in America does this happen.
Like post #9 I walk until I can't. At my current age of 78, I don't have the stamina that used to carry me for hours. I do love the big show and will be there in the fall, come hell or high water.

 

Look forward to seeing you

 

Surprised it is actually cheaper out of Tucson.

 

I was headed your way by direction of Flysalot and was nearly there when my friend found a DU Beretta he wanted to double back and check on. He ended up getting it and I got distracted and off the other direction we went again. Such a big show.
Was nice meeting several of the RFC members. Will catch ya next time!!
Slappy

 

im looking forward yto hearing from my friend that went on monday , see what he found and bought ,

 

Who is going to the fall WMGS Nov. 2025?

I will not say in open forum why I ask but I need to start making a running list outside myself , Flysalot , and Joker.

 

Unfortunately not me.

 

Nope,that’s hunting season.
