I would dearly love to attend this event, but its so far away.
Once again, a huge thank you to Binners, Liz and the team for putting on such a fine event.
This felt like the biggest fair yet and the show was packed with traders, a mind blowing array of old and not so old guns and collectors. It was great to have a chat with so many like minded enthusiasts. What more could a humble anorak ask for?
I took a few snaps and below are a few highlights. Keep your eyes peeled on Airgun World as a rather special item from the show will make an appearance in the near future....

Thank you John for the photo's. And to Binners and the team for another great event.
It was a good day. Bought a stunning HW97K in .20. So well chuffed.
Nice stuff. Sorry I couldn’t make it (though that may have saved me some money!).
What’s the aperture sight at the bottom?
Went to the show today, and thought it was wonderful. The range of guns on offer, and the varied items and dealers made for a truly memorable morning. Sorry Peter, I missed you - think you may have been busy Still a great day, only wish I had more money to have taken full advantage of all the guns on offer ------ Maybe next time?

Our old mucka Paul Macey braved the sea crossing to be reunited with his old BFTO members.
Good to see you...
Thoroughly enjoyable day. So much to see and so many knowledgeable traders who were genuine and enthusiastic without being pushy. I hope they all made enough to make it worth their while. Some fascinating pieces of history to check out. I came away with a tin of pellets and a friend bought the cheapest break barrel pistol to tinker with but we had an excellent time and his son will be saving his pennies for next year! Many thanks for putting it all together - I could easily have spent 1000's of pounds if I'd had it!
John, anothe one here who sadly could not make it but thanks so much for posting the pics. Can only say - WOW!

Will make the next one Pete, it's in the diary.

Hi p.j. hope all OK. Same here really, I would love to attend the event, but, I have had nightmare driving experiences on M4, especially after Reading heading east; delays, accidents, roadworks, diversions.... I will not drive to Heathrow, or Gatwick any more. It would be great if the show was was based somewhere around the south Midlands maybe. I does sound like Mecca, or the promised land for us enthusiasts, especially for collectors, Hope all had a good time and great purchases.
Regards to all......
Totally agree with above, we need an airgun only show new and old , loads of traders, all the major names in airgun makering, on the Builth Wells showground.
Purely in jest with no offense to any, but the picture with the clock in looks like a waiting room for sperm donor's, no women.
Thank you for posting the pictures.
I'll try and come down for the next one. Is there a hotel close by i could use for an overnighter?
