Hi Everyone,
The NRA Annual Meeting & Exhibits is this weekend in St. Louis. It starts today, April 12th, and goes through the weekend. If you are an NRA member you can go to the show for free. If you aren’t an NRA member, please consider JOINING NRA now. No matter what candidate gets in this year at this point we are going to have a tough 4 years ahead and NRA is the only organization that consistently is watching the ship.
As is our custom, we are doing a big giveaway for the weekend. This is our biggest yet actually. Because of the issues with spam filters and a ridiculous delay on all of our communications by AOL, Yahoo and many cable internet providers, we have to do the announcements for the giveaway through Facebook. As with all of our Facebook giveaways, you don’t have to be a member of Facebook to get the codes. It just makes it easier. The codes will be posted to our public Facebook page throughout the show. The process is the same as the others. We will post a code and you use standard email to send it to [email protected] (not case sensitive) to enter.
Here are the giveaway things this year. And please note that there is a “Like” option on every page of the blog.
Walther P99 & PPQ 9mm
Original Article: Elite Striker Pistols from Walther
This Walther article is one of the more popular posts in the blog. It seems that the word has gotten around that the Walthers are formidable striker pistols with ridiculously tight resets, great triggers, and common sense, reliable function. The P99AS is a decocker gun, very unexpected in a striker pistol, and the PPQ is a traditional striker pistol design with a great ergonomic feel, flawless reliability and great accuracy. We are giving away these actual 9mm guns from the article that Smith & Wesson said we could keep to give away.
Kel-Tec Sub -2000
Original Article: The Kel-Tec Sub 2000
The Sub-2000 is a pistol caliber folding carbine that takes the same mag as your service pistol. The giveaway gun is the exact gun you see in the pictures, a 9mm with a Glock 17 mag. This is a really fun gun to shoot, and as a backpack, kayak, or under the front seat gun, you have a long sight radius and nice reliable function with some real firepower. Thanks to Kel-Tec for the Sub-2000, and yes , we have a KSG on order. Hopefully we’ll see it soon.
Two New Bumpfire Stocks from SlideFire – AR-15 & AK-47
New Article: SlideFire SSAR-15-SBS and SSAK47-XRS
You may remember the original SlideFire article just over a year ago here in GunsAmerica Magazine & Blog, and at the time there was genuine doubt if this product would be legal a year later. Well it has made it so far and the SlideFire has become nothing short of a phenom in the shooting world. This new SBS stock looks a lot more like your adjustable tube stock, and the AK version actually work. SlideFire was nice enough to send us review stocks and two extras to give way for NRA Show this week. Thanks!
Point of Aim, Point of Impact, 1000 Yard Auto-Ranging Riflescope
New Article: Leatherwood ART M-1000 Auto-Ranging Riflescope
Back towards the end of the Vietnam war a man named Jim Leatherwood invented a scope for the M21 sniper system that allowed you to “frame, aim and shoot” out to 1000 yards with no math and no holdover. His son has taken his updated design forward with this revolutionary and slightly ugly and nerdy scope that can be set to any rifle with any ammo, point of aim, point of impact. You have to check this out, and thanks to Hi-Lux/Leatherwood for the giveaway scope!

I think you guys are doing a terrific job despite some of the oddball comments made by a few nonconformists.
It’s ok nonconformists give it right back to them lol.
The slide fire and the Subgun 2000 look like they’d be fun to shoot.

WTF??? OVER???
We don’t have any other reports of this, and I just tried gmail and it worked fine. It seems like maybe it was a router between your hotmail and us or something.

I presently own a Kel-Tec P-11 and would definitely like to add some more Kel-Tec or Walther Models to my collection.
[email protected] with the subject line “Pull a fast one” for the Walther PPQ 9mm. For the P99AS 9mm, use the code “Anti-Stress Trigger.”
What a full blown PRIC& that Administrator is for saying:
“Apparently you guys don’t have a 4th grade reading level”
Let me tell you something brother, Apparently >you don’t have< a lick of common sense when it comes to security on digital devices!
I say…..BOYCOTT any organization that MAKES you go thru F-Book to get anything!
How much are they paying you?
We have a voice and we can choose to NOT associate with any group that funnels more $$ to Mark Zuckerberg!
I Hope all free men make the same choice I have.
C ya at the show, online GFYS!
Obviously my 4th grade edumacation didnt learn me to follow directions well my sincere apologies I figured it out
pull a fast one! and use your anti stress trigger!!!
Pull a fast one

Anti-stress trigger
Good unfo
Outstanding!!
Games on!
Thanks to “Ron” I remembered that my NRA membership expired recently. I’m going to renew now.
Thanks for all the useful info!
Sounds great to me.
Great site. Don’t forget to join or renew your membership in the NRA.
Love this site..Lot’s of great information you share
Wonderful
Sweet.
Similar to respondent, “Kevin”, I value my privacy and “Don’t do” Facebook.
Would love to be able to get the the codes through your “regular” email.
I’m sure that many “members” feel slighted about this exclusivity.
Apparently you guys don’t have a 4th grade reading level in addition to your desire for privacy.
That remark is insulting. Why are you so crude towards people who are only enjoying themselves by making comments?
This may be insulting, but so is not reading a post that someone took the time to put together so everyone could have a fun time trying to win a gun.
Thanks, GA – I really want those Walthers and Sub 2000!!!
I hope to win something.
I enjoy your site.
If the Queen Of The Everglades were alive today, she’d wear a holstered Walther on her hip. Check the website to see what I mean.
I`ve been wanting a SLIDE FIRE STOCK, but unfortunately have not been able to afford one, maybe I`ll be LUCKY enough to win one.
That new scope looks good
Awesome, awesome, awesome. Why not one more awesome
Sorry, “Don’t like.” But I do like my privacy, so I don’t participate in any Facebook promotions.
you dont have to be on facebook to do this. Unfortunately, for many, you DO have to exhibit basic reading comprehension skills but that seems to be too difficult for you. Oh well, if you don’t enter, I have a higher chance of winning.
those 9mm are sweet!
The SlideFire is Cool
These are some Great Prizes !
I enjoy reading gunsamerica blog and its articles.
Love the website!
What is there not to like in these prizes. They are all on my wish list for my disaster prepping plan.
Tge best place to look for firearms
The Walthers look like nice hardware
GunsAmerica is the outstanding source for unbiased reports on lots of my favorite firearms.
Awsome!
Great way to hopefully win something!!! 😉
I enjoy your site, it’s very informative.
