Monthly Meetings

What is a Monthly Meeting?

Since its inception, the FDHAS has sponsored a “Monthly Meeting” (MM) for members. This is a low keyed, relaxed, gathering open to all members with paid up membership.  For those members who have not paid their membership due to the new year, they can pay at the meeting.

These meetings are held on Sundays during the months that the club does not have a 2-day gun show. Each one is a gathering of individuals and dealers with items for sale or trade.

Tables are available on a first come, first served basis. The MM serves many members who, for personal reasons, cannot set up at our two-day gun show. The meeting last just a few hours, but is filled with friendship, cordiality, buying and selling.

Free coffee and doughnuts at all monthly meetings.
