[rand]

Was just wondering if anyone made the Las Vegas Antique Arms and Armor show? Would like to hear any feedback? Was there much in edged weapons and armor?

I need the same info and feedback about Las Vegas arms show too.

Went to the Vegas Show little over a year ago and the only Islamic arms there were the three that I took with me..... Am hoping the Baltimore Show next February will be an improvement....

I thought it was in March.....and it will definitely be good! It is the biggest of the year.

They hold the Vegas show 3-4 times a year with the February Winter show being the most attended. If you are traveling a distance the Winter Show would be the one you would want to attend. Went to three shops there amd never found anything Islamic that I wanted to purchase.

There will probably be a couple people with itmes they could bring if they knew you were coming....

What about Baltimore? Worth making interstate plane trip and staying in hotel? How are the Islamic item prices compared to ebay average of similar items? And; is it possible to find high quality,special items or mainly common pieces which can already be found on ebay without spending extra time and money for a trip?

Hi Rand,

This is the big one in Vegas on Jan 18th. http://www.antiquearmsshow.com/events.cfm . It was OK from an Islamic perspective last year, quite a few other edged weapons as well. Lets face it its Vegas and a lot of fun. I will definitely be there.

All the Best
