Just got a note and a table for the IWLA Swap meet on Nov 12th.  Bunch of people from the VA HTF were there last year.

I'm sure many know what you mean, but I don't.

What is it, and is it open to the public?  I love a good swap meet.

Sorry, The Izaak Walton League of America/Arlington Fairfax Chapter (spearheaded by VAfish and others) opened an air rifle range for the kids and previously had a public swap meet to raise funds.   In years past firearms, BDUs, shooting gear, most hunting or camping items were sold.  IWLA is in Centreville VA near 28, 29 and 66.

I didn't want to publish the email contact info since she isn't on ARFCOM, but happy to pass it along via PM or email.  Tables are $10 per.  I have a table and if you have a couple of items I'm happy to share a table.  Lat time there were about 6-12 HTF members there.

You also don't have to have a table, you can show up and buy things as well!  

I wanted to post a hold the date PSA and once there is a public flier, someone will post it here or a link to the IWLA site.

For some reason I thought it was this weekend.  Glad it is still a month away. 

@vafish
I have an old 8hp chipper/shredder which can only cut items around 1" or less.  Is it ok to bring this and leave it outside the building with a sign on it.  If it doesn't sell for what I'm asking I'll ask if IWLA will accept it as a donation.

Got a message that tables are all taken and a waitlist for tables.

Sunday 2:00pm open. 1:00 setup.  $2 entry fee towards air rifle range for the children.

I have a table if you have a few items to sell.

This a good place to pick up a few upper receivers?
I also have an old Remington 597 with volksquarten trigger that I want to swap or get rid off. Can non members show up to swap or sell rifles or do you need a table?

Not sure on uppers, it depends on what people bring out.  PSA or other since its not an ffl item.

Technically you need a table if your selling, if you have few items i or one of the Arfcommers can help.  

Open to the public to buy and trade.

Just so happens that I'm going to be the RSO on duty for the trap and skeet range on Sunday(12-5).

Stop by and say hi guys, and if you want to shoot a round or two of trap or skeet.  I will have my 'loaner(Beretta A303)" shotty there if you want to borrow it.  BYOB though.

Yup!  Was fun to catch up with the ARFCOM crowd.  Turnout was a bit low, but that's likely the result of it being on a sunday afternoon.
