Mississippi Meeting

Post by riceone » Wed Jul 18, 2007 9:53 pm

First weekend last February we started a tradition that I intend to keep going. We had a meeting of gun collectors of all sort at my farm shop here in Cleveland, MS. I think we had 9 tables of displays and plan on more this coming February. I'm posting now so that you can keep it in mind and plan on comming. Cleveland is on the west side of Mississippi, 110 miles south of Memphis, Tn and 110 miles north of Vickburg, Ms.

Cleveland is a small town of about 16k with plenty of motels and eating places. My shop is on edge of city limits, within two miles of every thing in town. It is a Friday and Saturday event but you can come as early as you like. We had people from 7 states here last time and expect more this comming year. Most of what you see is Japanese but anyone is welcome with what ever. More later on. riceone.

Less than two weeks. There will be 9 tables of displays. Looking to have about 40 people. ONe of the attendees from last year described the event as like unto a "family reuion, gun show and barn dance." The best part of it is visiting with friends and meeting new people that are interested in Military Surplus. riceone.
