Carson Hookupz 2.0 Digiscope Universal Smartphone Adapter – SHOT Show 2017

Nice universal smartphone adapter to turn even cheap binos into a telephoto lens. New 2.0 appears to be phone independent. Very well reviewed around the web looks like a real find at SHOT.

Adco Superthumb Magazine Loader $10 – Now for Shield – SHOT Show 2017

This is a cool magazine device that will do your single stacks with the same tool as a double stack.

Mid-Evil Industries 360 Degree Vertical Steel Foregrip - Under 8 oz - SHOT Show 2017

Mid-Evil Industries 360 Degree Vertical Steel Foregrip – Under 8 oz – SHOT Show 2017

Light and novel vertical foregrip that allows you to lock your preferred angle in place. Pricey though.

M.O.A.B. - 150/300 Minutes of Angle Adjustable Scope Base - Cold Shot - SHOT Show 2017

M.O.A.B. – 150/300 Minutes of Angle Adjustable Scope Base – Cold Shot – SHOT Show 2017

The M.O.A.B. is a 1/4 MOA click adjustable tilting scope base, which allows you to use the middle of your optics glass at long range. So rather than click your scope out 40 or more MOA when you stretch from 100 to 1000 yards, you click the base out, and make only minor adjustments to your scope turrets.

Magwell Innovation Makes Your AR-15 Obsolete - SHOT Show 2017

Magwell Innovation Makes Your AR-15 Obsolete – SHOT Show 2017

When I ran across this AR magwell innovation at SHOT, that was the first thing that came to mind. Am I privy to a different way of doing this that will change the AR-15 forever, and deprecate the guns we thought were absolutely the shit.

100% American HK-91 Sniper Model + Pistol - PTR Industries - SHOT Show 2017

100% American HK-91 Sniper Model + Pistol – PTR Industries – SHOT Show 2017

In all of its configurations, the HK-91 is about as reliable a .308 battle rifle as you’ll find. I have had rifles in this design since the 80s when Century Arms first brought in CETME rifles from Spain, which is where that design originally appeared. To this day PTR Industries is involved with the current CETMEs that Century sells, and I have one in for review now actually.

Calvin Elite Multi-Shoe AR Triggers - Timney Triggers - SHOT Show 2017

Calvin Elite Multi-Shoe AR Triggers – Timney Triggers – SHOT Show 2017

This year Timney is following the herd with their latest take on the AR-15 drop in style trigger. The thinking on this product is geared to the competitive shooter who wants to develop his or her own style of trigger work, with a slightly canted paddle angle. Super light, you could theoretically set up the trigger to almost brush it rather than pull it straight back, and that could theoretically give you an advantage for long distance precision shooting, or even quick 3-Gun work.

Serbu CQB .50 Cal. - Super Shorty Mossberg - Bunch of Other Cool Shit - SHOT Show 2017

Serbu CQB .50 Cal. – Super Shorty Mossberg – Bunch of Other Cool Shit – SHOT Show 2017

How do you explain someone who designed a gun specifically so that it could be made for $10 so that you can make them to turn into gun buybacks for upwards of $300. That is Mark Serbu, and he has been making novel and useful gun products for years, that unfortunately only early birds get to actually buy lmao.

1862 Colt Pocket .380ACP Conversion + 1894 Winchester + 1876 Tom Horn - Cimarron - SHOT Show 2017

1862 Colt Pocket .380ACP Conversion + 1894 Winchester + 1876 Tom Horn – Cimarron – SHOT Show 2017

If you are a cowboy shooter or you just love guns that look and feel like they did at the dawn of American firearms, Cimarron has become the primary importer of high quality Uberti firearms, any many of them are short run and quite novel. This year is an 1862 Colt Pocket conversion to .380ACP, a original version of the 94 Winchester, and a couple 1876 leverguns with interesting stories.

Kowa Highlander Gargantuan Binoculars - SHOT Show 2017

Kowa Highlander Gargantuan Binoculars – SHOT Show 2017

If you run into Kowa at a big box store or gunshop, give them a look. High quality optics aren’t for everyone, but if you are spending big bucks on a hunting or sightseeing trip, being able to see clearly at distance in low light will add a lot of value to what you are already investing.
