SHOT Show 2017

If you ever wanted to make your Mosin-Nagant or Swiss K31 into an optics native sniper or hunting rifle, the accuracy in the guns is generally there, sub-MOA, but you need a rock solid mount, and a good stock. Rock Solid Industries and Bluegrass Gunstocks has your answer.

Diamondback has some .308 ARs that look promising this year, and street price should be under $1,000. They have also updated the DB9 with some new internals, and the DB9 and DB380 will now be cut for Glock sized sights.

Don’t forget to visit the ! Overview Magneto Speed isn’t exactly the new kid on the block, but they aren’t as well know as I’d imagine they’d be because they make a really unique product, a bayonet-style chronograph! That’s right, a chronograph that mounts right below your muzzle, like a bayonet, and measures bullet velocity [...]

One of the true stars of SHOT was the SIG P210, which was re-released in all its glory.

This year at SHOT Show, we got a chance to lay our hands on it. Enter the Colt Combat Unit AR.

We had a chance to visit the Crimson Trace booth at SHOT Show 2017 and see some of their exciting new products. Take a look to see what we found.

One of the biggest changes we are seeing in predator hunting, especially in states like Texas that have relaxed regulations for certain animals, is the growth of night vision and thermals. The consumer is by far the winner in this equation, as the price of technology is driven down by stiff competition. Several companies at SHOT Show offered thermals, but we liked the Pulsar brand ones in particular. We looked at two models, one an entry-level model called the Core and another mid-price one called the Trail.

It may seem that a lot of guns are full of innovation. They really aren’t. We jabber about them and pretend that they are exciting, but at the end of the day, it’s more of the same old stuff. I love the new details and features as much as the next guy, but this guy Brian has introduced some innovation that nobody else out there is even working on. In this video you’ll find a reloading system for all of the .22 rimfires. There is also a DIY percussion cap maker, and a system to reprime Berdan with standard boxer primers. Some of these products are already in house for individual review, but I’ll cover the basics here.

Savage has decided to step into the AR market with its new MSR line (made up of .223 and .308 variants). Savage has always been one of the most underrated rifle brands in my opinion, delivering more accuracy per dollar than anyone else. My first rifle was actually a Savage, a 110 model in .30-06, that delivered half-MOA accuracy out of the box. With Savage in the AR game now, the AR world may get stood on its head.
