SHOT Show 2017

New from Ruger this year is the exciting 6mm Creedmoor chambering in the American Predator Rifle as well as the popular Ruger Precision Rifle.

Liberty Safe offers shooters and collections great options for safe gun storage from standing large gun safes all the way down to quick-access handgun safes. Take a look at what is new for 2017.

AirForce is launching a suppressed .45-caliber airgun that can make 400 foot-pounds at the muzzle for target shooting and small and medium game.

It would be easy to dismiss this gun as novelty. With a standard capacity of 25 rounds — 40+1 with mini-shells — the KSG-25 is a beast.

The concept of the Handi-Racker is to assist the shooter in racking the slide, realizing the power of body weight, rather than hand and arm strength. You hold the Handi-Racker against the back of the slide and push down on the pistol, using a table or wall as a brace.

Most burglars aren’t that sophisticated, and many of them think that they can just drive a truck through the front door. That is why the first test on this case was to run at it with a 26,000 pound box truck. Then they continued with sledge hammers, cutting wheels, and when they brought it into the shop, dropped it from the top of a fork lift, all on video.

Rio Grande has stock grips, semi-custom and fully customizable grips at very affordable prices.

At first I was unsure as to how I was supposed to take seriously an optics company named Rudolph that had a reindeer on their SHOT Show booth. I mean really? But then I looked down the glass and was surprised to find that the scopes are nice. Poking and prodding, I discovered that Rudolph Optics are made in the same factory as a very popular Japanese scope manufacturer that I will not say here, and they sell for 20-30% less for about the same thing.

I love novelty guns as much as the next guy, but things seem to be changing for Heizer with this new PKO 45, and later this year, the PKO 9. Both guns have the standard Heizer look and feel, but instead of novelty, the stress seems to be on ergonomics and shootability.
