Booked my hotel to attend Kempton for the first time ever.... Can't wait... Who all is going from here?

Anything is should not miss?

I've gone the last couple of years, it's a good show. Not too big so you can get around and see everything frst, then circle back to get into specific stuff. Gonna try to get there this year, only about 1.5 hrs away.

I’m gathering all my nickels and dimes so I can make the trek this year. I am 2.5 hours away. I haven’t been there since they moved it from the Dixon store location to the new venue. There are a lot of ole friends that I am looking forward to seeing!

if im breathing ill be there. one of the few things that changed and got better... i think. plus you can still stop at dixons.

 

[BoomStick]

I go one of the days -usually depends on family activities which day. Demos are good, Dave Person, Brian LaMaster on gunmaking and @bldtrailer flint knapping are usually on my list.

Of course just talking to people is good...it's a gathering of people who share a niche interest.

The Dixon's are great people. Mrs. Dixon, whose first name I do not recall, is the one who set me up originally a few years ago. She is a lovely lady with a sense of humor and a ton of knowledge. I will be at Kempton, but I also suggest you visit Dixon's shop.

Of course everyone stops at Dixon's on the way up (or down!). Large Cabela's and Cigar World nearby if you're into that. Show is mainly for builders, horners, many parts and stocks, etc., displayed. Cool to see guys in person that you've seen in Muzzle Blasts, too. New location is really good. Beautiful hilly corn-field rolling hill country. Good luck!

Heading there soon. Just over an hour away from home!
