WELCOME



After considering the feedback from many of our exhibitors, we have revised some of the rules for the Oslo International Gunshow

Only one dealers badge will be issued for each table.
Exhibitors with more than one table may be issued two dealers badges.
Exhibitors with more than five tables may be issued three dealers badges.
The new rules are the result of many complaints of a crowded showroom before the gunshow starts.

The showroom will be available for dealers from 1900-2100 hrs the evening before the gunshow.
At 2100 hrs the showroom will be locked off and we will not take any responsibility for the articles left by the exhibitors. Leto Hallen will lock the doors, and there is an alarm system.
The price for each table is 400,- kr, 50,- EUR by advance payment. Last chance for advance payment is May 8th. When paid at the show, the price for each table is 500,- kr, 60,- EUR. Please note that all bank fees will be paid by the exhibitor


There is always the chance that we may have to use the basement facilities at the venue. The reason for this is that we are trying to keep the cost down for the exhibitors and ourselves. In the event that we have to change to the basement, each vendor will get a refund of 100 NOK for each of his tables to compensate for the inconvenience.

Thanks Vegar , could be a good show to visit , how many times a year is it on ?

[Vegard T]

Usually twice a year

[Vegard T]

The dates tend to change sometimes when it is several months till the event, for example: When i checked in november/december last year it was in march. But it will probably be one more time this year, probably october/november.
The fair is tomorrow, wish me luck!

Hi, did you buy anything interesting? I was there too, but I just got a medic bag, a MILORG armband and a Nagant revolver from 1939. I was about to buy a Kongsberg Colt, but I found out it wasn't deactivated *sigh*. Luckily it didn't matter that much as there is another fair in Kongsberg this Saturday, where there is an abundance of Kongsberg Colts. All I need after I get the Colt is a Sten Mk 2 with a moveable magazine housing and some old clothes, and my MILORG outfit will be complete

[Vegard T]

Nice to see another Norwegian here. I bought a Finnish M44 Smg, an English signal pistol, M1 Garand clip, Swedish magazine pouch, German 37mm, and a magazine for my Thompson. And on the way back i stopped by an antiques shop and bought a German "Packkiste Nr 10". I was planning on making a MILORG outfit, but i haven't really started on it yet, still trying to finish those i have started(Swedish/Norwegian police uniform, American uniforms etc). I would love getting a Sten Mk II that has moving parts, the one i have you can only remove the magazine. I don't have the money to go to Kongsberg, but i hope you get your Kongsberg colt, i think i looked at the one you were looking at, too bad it wasn't deactivated, that is one of the few Kongsberg colts i saw at the fair.

PS: Are you on samlerforumet?

[Bill Grist]

Please post some picts. of this Oslo, Norway show... Thankd BILL

[Vegard T]

Firstly: You are not allowed to take pictures, which is pretty stupid considering it will get much more attention and more customers.
And secondly: My camera doesn't like me, so it would have been quite impossible anyways.

[Tobben]

Yeah, im on samlerforum, but i haven't been there in a while so i cant remember my name right now.
Anyway, i got a great Kongsberg Colt today.

I also bought a manual for it, but i forgot to add it in the picture

[Vegard T]

Congratulations on a the Kongsberg Colt, hopefully i will get one at the next fair at Letohallen. I didn't go to the Kongsberg fair since i don't have the money for it atm, so i went to the Airshow at Kjeller airport instead Great show with loads of veteran planes(Tiger Moths, Spitfire, German training planes etc.)
