Here are some comments about the 2011 event:

?The only place to be if you just want to see custom guns and get a chance to actually meet and talk to the makers. It?s great because it?s focused and intimate.?

?Just returned from my first show, and to say that I was impressed would be a vast understatement. Thank all of you for carrying on such superb craftsmanship.?

In addition to displays by ACGG and FEGA members, the three-day event also features select exhibitors from members of The American Bladesmith Society and the Knifemakers Guild. For a comprehensive list of exhibitors, go to http://www.ACGG.org/events/2012-exhibitors.
