Great Southern Gun & Knife Shows

Great Southern Gun & Knife Shows started in 1984 when Ernie and Helen Bean launched the first event. Now managed by Shawn and Elizabeth Bean, these shows have grown into some of the largest firearms and accessories marketplaces in the USA.

We have been in business for over 40 years producing high-quality shows that are consistently well attended by the public. Our hallmark of intensive advertising and our dealer-oriented philosophy makes us one of the top shows in the USA.

Hundreds of vendor tables loaded with: - New and used firearms (buy, sell, trade) - Knives and tactical blades - Ammunition and reloading supplies - Gun parts and components - Holsters and carry gear - Military items and camouflage - Hunting and collector gear

Whether you're a serious collector looking to trade up, a hunter restocking for the season, or a reloader searching for supplies, there's inventory for every need at discounted prices.
