SHOT Show 2016

Springfield Armory has just released 3 new Mod.2 pistols that expand the already versatile line. The guns are getting shorter, longer, and more tactical. We’ve had them in for testing and are here with their updates for SHOT Show 2016.

Zeiss makes some incredible optics. This year, they’re launching the V8 series. These feature an intuitive auto-on/auto-off feature that adds a red dot to their crystal clear glass, customizable turrets, and everything you need to get in the field (except the gun and ammo).

The Sweet 16 is one epic update from the folks at Browning. The classic 16 gauge A5 is back, and super sleek. The weight of an anemic 20 gauge combined with healthy recoil management makes this one smooth shooting shotgun.

Project Childsafe is a non-profit charity affiliated with the National Shooting Sports Foundation, the firearms industry trade association. Its mission is simple. Save lives via educating the public on proper gun use and storage.

New for 2016, CAA has an updated version of the RONI, the Micro, and a non-NFA pistol version with an integral stabilizing brace, the MIC-RONI-STAB.

I was walking the aisles down in the far reaches of the basement when I looked over and saw what looked to be an old M40 Marine Sniper Rifle. And it was. I had stumbled upon the Hi-Lux Scope booth.

SCCY has a new pistol design that is going to change the way pistols are made. Check out the Roebuck Quad Lock. It holds down the barrel in two places, and is in production on their CPX-3 .380. Shot Show 2016.
