I looked over events before posting this to see if anyone was talking about it because I had a question! If this is wrong area or there is a Post already I understand removing or relocating my post!


I was wondering if anyone has been to this event and if so is it a good event? This would mean many people going to see and buy. This event is put on by a company named Patriot Productions. Its called The BIG Military History Expo and 6th Annual Gun Show in Vero Beach Florida.

This is a 555 mile trip for me, this is fine but wouldnt want to travel all that way to a always dead show.

Thanks for all and any info.

This is the first I've heard of it.
A google search turns up lots of promotion but no websites talking about past events. Hopefully, someone has gone and will post good intel.

If I didn't have Military duty that weekend (7th and 8th), I would load up some Military stuff to sell and head up to Vero.

Patriot Productions was trying to do a show last weekend in Ft. Lauderdale, but had to cancel because they couldn't get enough venders to attend. There were shows at the Ft, Lauderdale Armory and one in Miami(that's where my son and I was selling ammo) So most of the venders were at these two events.


Next weekend my son will be in Melbourne, Fl.

Patriot Productions is trying to tie in a lot of things to bring more people to their event(Military vehicles, Car shows and more). I heard it's a slow event from other venders. If anyone does go, let me know how it was.

Just saw this site and chatter about the Vero show last weekend and thought I'd chime in. Not sure why someone said the Vero show is a slow show because it is one of the best and well attended shows I go to and is always sold out for vendors...

This Military History Expo Gun Show combo was INSANE with people! I could not believe it Saturday and then again Sunday... I think it's a great idea and apparently so did the public! They announced their 2016 date already on Facebook as Feb 6-7, 2016. Saw lots of military vehicles, the WWII and Vietnam reenactments were incredible and had full bleachers of people watching. And of course the gun show was big and packed with people. I def look forward to going for the next one, had a blast as a vendor and a patron. It was refreshing and different....

Good to hear it was a good show, not sure where you saw that someone said it was a slow show.

Got any pics to post? I would love to see how shows down south look.

Here are some cool pics I pulled from the local news paper website where they did a editorial on the event. No pics of inside the gun show but we all know what those look like any way. Enjoy...

From the looks of things I would have rather went to go look around in stead of Vender! Well as it turned out I could not have made it down any ways and probably a good thing I didn't try because I ended up have truck Break down issues that forced some time in the shop!.........Still trying to work all the bus out of my M1009 before i start on Road Trips!

I will sign up for this one next year!
