Wanenmacher’s Tulsa Arms Show – the biggest show of its kind in the world – will be at Expo Square April 6-7.
From a modest start in 1955, the show has grown to almost 6 miles of exhibits. The world’s largest gun and knife show will fill the 11-acre building with more than 4,250 exhibits of antique and modern firearms, knives, swords and accessories, on display and for sale.
Exhibits will include wildlife and western art, bronze work and jewelry. Several collectors’ organizations will attend and The Browning Collectors and Smith & Wesson Collectors will be featured guests. The Wanenmacher Show draws exhibitors and spectators from around the world. The public is invited to bring their firearms, swords and knives for a free appraisal, or to sell or trade. Most exhibitors will take a gun in trade.
Gunsmoke’s Buck Taylor and Jim West, star of Alaska Wild West are celebrity guests at the show. Also, there will be the NRA National Firearms Museum’s display entitled, “Two Hollywood Greats. Two Sharps Rifles. Two NRA Leaders.”
Admission is free with the purchase of a new NRA membership at the door. The NRA membership price of $30 includes a free cap valued at $16.95, plus free admission. Several thousand spectators took advantage of this offer during the past show.
Wanenmacher’s Tulsa Arms Show brings more than $19 million to Tulsa annually, and more people attend this show than any other two-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.
