The Wanenmacher’s Tulsa Arms Show, the largest show of its kind in the world, will return November 13-15 at Expo Square (Tulsa Fairgrounds).

From a modest start in 1955, the show has grown to almost 6 miles of exhibits. The world’s largest gun and knife show, run by Joe Wanenmacher and his family, will fill the 11-acre building with more than 4,200 tables of antique and modern firearms, knives, swords and accessories, on display and for sale.

General-interest exhibits will include wildlife and western art, bronze work and jewelry. Several collectors’ organizations will be present with outstanding exhibits and items to sell. The Ruger Owners and Collectors Society and Smith & Wesson Collectors will be featured guests.

The Wanenmacher Show is international in scope, drawing exhibitors and spectators worldwide. The public is invited to bring their firearms, swords, and knives for a free appraisal, or to sell or trade.

“If you are thinking of upgrading, you will find the largest selection and best prices. Most exhibitors will take your gun in trade,” a spokesman said.

The show will feature celebrity guests, including Gunsmoke’s Buck Taylor, as well as Jim West, star of Alaska Wild West.

Admission is free with the purchase of a new NRA (National Rifle Association) membership at the door.

Receive a discounted price of only $30, which includes a free cap valued at $16.95, plus free admission. Several thousand spectators took advantage of this offer during the past year.

Wanenmacher’s Tulsa Arms Show brings more than $19 million to Tulsa annually, and more people attend Wanenmacher’s Tulsa Arms Show than any other 2-day event at the Tulsa Fairgrounds. The show is open to the public Saturday, 8 a.m. to 6 p.m., and Sunday, 8 a.m. to 4 p.m.

Advance admission, V.I.P. Passes, will be sold at 2A Shooting Center, Green Country Arms & Pawn, Sports World, and Gray’s Jewelry Gun and Pawn in Tulsa and Broken Arrow, and RJ’s Gun Shop in Broken Arrow..
