    Preston Arms & Militaria Fair this Sunday 3rd July

    Just a quick heads up for Preston Arms and Militaria Fair that's taking place on Sunday 3rd July.
    It's at a new venue namely the
    Mercure Bolton Georgian House Hotel
    Manchester Road
    Blackrod
    BOLTON
    BL6 5RU.

    Open 9.00am to 2.30pm

    For those who couldn't attend Kempton there will be myself and other dealers there and loads of Militaria stuff to see so worth a visit

    This used to be held at Charnock Richard near Chorley until earlier this year this is a new and better venue at the Mercure Bolton Georgian House Hotel

    We've got our RFD from Greater Manchester Pklice so we'll be taking a great selection of modern and antique air guns.


    Regards.

    Tim Dyson

    Don't you ever rest Tim?

    Seriously though, I wish it were closer and I'd be there too

    Spoke with the organiser today there are well over 100 tables booked with some traders on the waiting list so it will be full. £6.00 entry £5.00 concessions. Opens 9.00am.
    There is the 'Bolton Iron Man' event taking place on the same day this will not affect the Arms Fair which is nowhere near where the race is taking place Unfortunately I won't be able to compete in the event as I'll be at the Arms Fair but there's always next year.

    Regards Tim

    Thanks for the heads up. Blackrod is quite a long way for me. But the wife wants to go.

    I will be attending this event along with my mate SNIPERPHIL.

    Dont forget the R R Adlington Airgun Fair (Sat. 15th October) which is just 5 miles up the road from this event.

    This doesn't give me much time to sort out a red carpet and cover up the Webley Air Pistols !
