"GREAT WEST" show in Las Vegas

[Fixed Blade]

Thinking of going to the "Great West Show" at the end of April in Las Vegas. Claims to be a gun and knife show. Does anyone have any experience with this show and what I might expect knife wise??? Also, anyone know of any decent Flea Markets or Swap Meets in Las Vegas??

THIS IS THE FORMER GREAT WESTERN SHOW HELD IN POMONA, CA. DUE TO NEW LA COUNTY LAWS THEY WERE FORCED TO MOVE TO NEVADA. WHEN THE SHOW WAS IN CA IT WAS QUITE LARGE, BUT IT WAS GUNS, MILITARY STUFF, KNIVES, MEMORABILIA, COLLECTIBLES AND JUNK, MOSTLY GUNS THOUGH. IF YOUR IN THE AREA, CHECK IT OUT, BUT I WOULDN'T MAKE A TRIP ACROSS THE THE U.S. FOR IT. JUST MY OPINION. THE SOLVANG CUSTOM KNIFE SHOW IS THE SAME WEEKEND IN SOLVANG, CA AND IT IS ALL CUSTOM MAKERS AND DIFINITELY WORTH THE TRIP. AGAIN, JUST MY OPINION.

The swap meet in Las Vegas is the Broadacres Swap Meet, located on Pecos and Las Vegas Blvd North. It is a pretty good size one.
