I am not a shotgun connoisseur; that wasn’t really the style in my neighborhood unless we count very illegally sawed off versions. But the Barrett Sovereign shotgun I saw was staggeringly beautiful. If you had told me it was a $20,000 English shotgun, I would have believed it. But, with pricing starting at $2,200 and going up to $6,550, these are great deals for the money.

Kimber Super Jagare 10mm: Longslide, Ported & Optics-Ready—SHOT Show 2017
BY Clay Martin Published: February 7, 2017 { 29 comments }Being a full-fledged member of the cult of the 10mm, this was an excellent SHOT Show for me. New from Kimber this year is the Super Jagare. “Jagare” is German for hunter, and this new model should excel at that. Chambered in 10mm, it features a full 6-inch barrel to really exploit the velocity capability of this round. The barrel is also factory ported, which helps keep the gun controllable during recoil.
M.O.A.B. – 150/300 Minutes of Angle Adjustable Scope Base – Cold Shot – SHOT Show 2017
BY Paul Helinski Published: February 6, 2017 { 4 comments }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.

Multi-Mag Pistol-Caliber AR: Nordic Components PCC 9mm—SHOT Show 2017.
BY Clay Martin Published: February 6, 2017 { 3 comments }The NCPCC, or Nordic Components Pistol Caliber Carbine, is the coolest 9mm carbine I have seen. It sports standard AR furniture, which you can change out if you like, and a mil-spec trigger group. That also means you can put your favorite AR trigger in; no need to look for a sub gun special. By far the selling point though, in my opinion, is the innovative magazine system.
100% American HK-91 Sniper Model + Pistol – PTR Industries – SHOT Show 2017
BY Paul Helinski Published: February 6, 2017 { 3 comments }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.
