I have been to the Vegas show the last five years. You will have to look VERY hard to find a black rifle. The last one I saw was a custom wood stocked version by Turnbull. The show has two basic sections, one for the nationally advertised dealers and one with hundreds of tables of "private" sellers. There usually are a few new manufactures there as well, Fausti, Westley Richards, etc. I have found a couple of gems to add to my collection, last year a William Evans Paradox two barrel set and the year before, a Scott high grade Live Pigeon Gun. Both at what I consider fair prices. It is my opinion, you will see more antique SXS's at this show than any other single place. The show is also a gathering for the custom knife makers guild, if that is of interest. I strongly suggest at least two days to see everything. Friday and Saturday are best, or pay more and go on Thursday, set up day. I will be there on Thursday.
Good Hunting.
