Actually it is Sept 16-17. They don't have a web-site as far as I know, but their number is 1-863-665-0092.
Good Luck Vince |

Jim,
The Aug 26th one is the much smaller (30-40 dealer) C&R show at the Mirror center. The big show (500-600 tables) put on by the Lakeland Rod&Gun club is at the Lakeland convention center Sept 16-17. Vince |

Thank you for the info
I've been to both and I like the smaller one best, no beef jerky, air soft guns etc... and no gang bangers hanging out by the AR-15's tables I think 80% to 90% of the guns at the smaller show have to be C & R under the shows rules. Its all a mater of what your looking for and like. but if there is a group of you guys going to the show on the 16th, I be happy to go just to meet some of you. Jim

I agree, and try to support the C&R one so that it continues to grow in size. Having said that the bigger Lakeland show is the best of the big ones in FL, to your point, many more vintage gun dealers than the Orlando, or Tampa shows, so I do try to get to it when I can, unfortunatly not this weekend.
