After a break due to COVID, the popular British Shooting Show will be taking place again on 18th – 20th February 2022 at the NEC in Birmingham.
Whether you’re new to shooting or a seasoned shooter, this is the perfect location to make informed decisions about buying a gun and ammunition, see the latest releases and find out what is happening.
There are thousands of new and second-hand shotguns, rifles and air rifles, plus optics, night-vision and thermal-imaging kit, hunting knives, gundog equipment, country clothing and footwear to choose from.
You can also try on some new kit, watch some demonstrations in the demo area, catch up with friends and ask questions of experts.
If you’re an airgunner then the event is a must. It is the only place in the UK where all the major airgun manufacturers and distributors are present, in one place for three days.
The heritage of gunmaking features too and there is a busy gamekeepers area where keepers can browse specialist products and services.
It might surprise some, but the Show is also a keen supporter of conservation.
Fieldsports play an important part in conservation, ensuring the British countryside is nurtured for all. Leading conservation bodies have a presence, with experts available to answer questions and queries about best conservation practice, biodiversity and wildlife.
