    It just got bigger

    Now 81 tables are booked I know it would be nice if all of them were air gun related, but some of the Classic, Vintage and Antique gun traders sneak the odd air gun in from time to time these are normally priced miles to high or miles to low

    As for the Militaria tables, who knows

    Having never been to anything like this I was wondering what the etiquette was for taking your new purchase/s back to your vehicle. All Airguns to be in slips before you leave the hall/room? Do sellers wrap up your purchase in any way if need be? Is the carpark also being used for day to day Kempton activities on the day?
    I'd think most in attendance would have enough gun slips etc to bring along to house their newly aqquired air rifles but it was just a thought. I'm kinda picturing the likes of JohnBaz darting round the room with 20+ rifle slips under his arm,spending the kids inheritance like there's no tomorrow
    Cheers,Phil

    I usually take gunbags when I'm buying.
    Sellers might give you a bin bag if you are lucky!

    I am selling a few Collectables at Kempton and I will provide a bag of some sort.
    That's because I am a nice bloke.

    Good point Phil

    As Patrick said, most people take slips or lightweight sleeves with them and most sellers have black bin liners. The site is deemed to be private for the day, but all guns and swords should be covered when leaving the building. The car park is also private, but can be seen from the road, so keeping them under wraps is wise.
