Ack-Ack26yd Posted June 2, 2013 Share #4 Posted June 2, 2013 http://users.erols.com/fasttrack/ http://www.dipromo.com/index.php?page=gun_shows ^These websites are the guys who do the Gun Shows around New England. There's usually one in Concord and Manchester and Marlboro, MA I think. Rt 4 East of Concord is always a good bet too, if you're looking for antiques and militaria. It's NH's Antique Alley. Also, the show in Lowell David was referring to is, I believe, the 'patch collectors' show which is now at the the Holiday Inn in Boxborough, MA. Actually the monthly show is tomorrow June 2nd. They mostly have militaria and knives, no guns I believe though. hope that helps, Anthony fellow 603er Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ack-Ack26yd Posted June 2, 2013 Share #6 Posted June 2, 2013 Yeah, that's the one I think. I have only gotten into it since it moved to Boxboro. I guess they've been doing it there for the past 3+ years I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ack-Ack26yd Posted June 2, 2013 Share #8 Posted June 2, 2013 HAHA probably, there are always a couple dealers who bring some really nice stuff, to look at, but have outrageous prices. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
