Default S&W Collector's Association Show?

Can anytone tell me the dates of the S&W Collector's Associations shows this year and next? Their web site says the 2011 show will be in Orlando and 2012 will be in Boise but the specific dates are not mentioned.
I'd like to get information on dates and exact locations (show hotels).
Thanks,
Buckspen

Our meeting starts a week from Wednesday and runs through Sunday. I am not sure of next year's dates yet.

Not sure why you would want to know, but you have to be a member or a paid guest of a member of the Association to attend. It is not open to the public. It is not like a gunshow or a show per se like you reference in your title line and text, but rather an annual conference of members.
My suggestions would be, why not consider becoming a member of the SWCA, I did and it is a well worth organization to belong to.

Default Collector's Show

Thank you, Max. I've been trying to contact a friend who will be at the show and now I know why he has been hard to find. He is setting up a display for the show and I'm sure he is very busy with that.

I went to the collector's association web site and noticed the next years show will be in Boise, Idaho. I have relatives there and it would make a nice trip to visit them and see the show as well. A friend in Boise is a member and would be happy to get me a pass.

These days most of my efforts go into Colt single action revolvers and I attend all of the Colt Collector's Association shows. But I have a few nice S&W's and enjoy learning more about them.
