Firearm Trade Shows

Over the last 35 years, Blue Book Publications, Inc. has attended hundreds of domestic and international industry and consumer shows. This is where much of the new information is gathered, in addition to providing us an opportunity to meet industry leaders, contributing editors, and interested consumers. It’s a party!

Here's a listing of all the related trade shows (both consumer and industry) we'll either be attending or exhibiting at during 2013 and early 2014. If you want to meet with our content providers and the staff while on the show circuit, here's where we'll be. It is highly recommended that you try to attend some of these shows, as these are the best places to acquire up-to-date information on what you like and collect.

In the past, we have had a lot of requests for either appointments or to meet some of our personnel. Keeping this in mind, if you would like to schedule some time to see us at any of these shows, please contact us directly before each show date, so that we can make arrangements.
