geordieh Posted March 17, 2014 Report Share Posted March 17, 2014 Hi I only went last year because I got some free tickets it did pick up for a while but the last 2 or 3 years it has not been brilliant.Ok if you just want to meet up with mates and have a beer and a chinwag you will struggle to make it last more than the morning or afternoon Geordie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sportsbob Posted March 23, 2014 Report Share Posted March 23, 2014 Been to the Bath & West today, not impressed :( Lots of clothes and general accessories, a fair bit of food, some boots, hardly any guns (I went there with buying a SxS in mind) and stuff of no interest to me. Did I buy anything , no. Will I go again , probably not. Sorry B&W Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry B&W my thoughts exactly go every year but this was the worst.too many clothes and **** for sale and as said earlier hardly any guns.All I came back with was some ferret food and a ticket which cost £14 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rimfire4969 Posted March 23, 2014 Report Share Posted March 23, 2014 I haven't been for about 4 or 5 years, last time was rubbish, I am very glad I did not waste my time and money. It's about time the organisers relised how bad it is and changed it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
welshwizard Posted March 24, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 24, 2014 You would think that after all the years it has been running they would aim to improve it if only by a little each year , as I said I have not been for long time but even going back 15 years or more there were very little attendance of the gun and shooting related dealers certainly no top companies ,nothing in the way of reloading or even ammo sellers ,how it keeps getting enough attendance figures to make it financially viable beats me .
