This is the big 2-day show in Hillsboro. I look forward to this one every year. It's a quality show with no junk items, and it is similar to the Vegas Antique Arms Show in feel (though not so huge). Lot of exhibitors and dealers come from out of state for this show because of its reputation.

Highly recommended.

This show comes with a must do recommendation.

If you don't have money, bring your brain.

You'll learn something at this show.

I agree with everything said above. People come to this show from all around the northwest so you're going to see lots of new things, and the displays are always top-notch.

Guess I had the wrong information on this show. I was under the impression is was a rather low table count event, similar to the Salem gun shows, but am just now finding out that it's sold out.

If you "gather" guns that are not current manufacture black and plastic poor excuses for a firearm, this is a show where you will not only find what you are looking for, you will "gather" more knowledge about your interests. It is truly a step back in time to when gun shows were actually a "show", instead of a sales window for the latest poorly made, bad looking crap that is sold to poor souls not knowing any better.

That I don't know but there is no mention of parking in the original post.

When Collectors West did their February gun show it was $10 for parking + $10 for show .

Edit : I did speak with a gentleman with Oregon Arms Collectors and he said the facility is contracting personnel to oversee parking and fees at August 24/25 show . He said the facility didn't charge for parking last year but that they were going to now . FYI

you can park here for free

As an FYI, the Salem fairgrounds is also now charging $10 for parking unless you have a vendors pass. Unfortunately, with venue fees increasing, and now parking fees becoming more common, it puts more pressure everyone, organizers, vendors, and attendees.

I was surprised myself. Some incredible displays and collections. The guy that had the WWII paratrooper setup actually went to Normandy to take the display photos himself. It's good to see younger people taking an interest in preserving history.

Thanks to all that stopped by the OFF table.

This is one of the few shows I try to attend. This show came and went without me even knowing about it.
