Will be headed to SHOT, so like Dan, I will try to hit booths and get info and pictures if there is anything people are interested in.
I will also post updates, photos, stories and such here in this thread while I am there, and try to keep this well updated with some musings...
So, besides the obvious stories, and current hype (Glock comes to mind here) is there anything anyone wants info on?

Suppressors. Booth 551 is Thompson Machine. Good bunch of folks over there.
Walther.
I also like gun porn of high end rifle stuff.....if there is anything new on the double rifle (Holland & Holland, Krieghoff, etc) market.

Based on the fact they are going to release them after SHOT, I would imagine that they will have the on the range to help build some hype. I will do my best to get my hands on one to shoot and report back to ya! Sent from my SAMSUNG Galaxy S3 using Tapatalk Pro

Thank you! The doubles, and other high end stuff, just make for nice pictures. $100,000 is a bit out of my price range for a hunting weapon. WAGunRights wrote: dan360 wrote: Suppressors. Booth 551 is Thompson Machine. Good bunch of folks over there.

That was my guess.. But then you hear that, even though the way a cool half million for a matched set of firearms, they are pretty down to earth guys who just make REALLY nice stuff... I'll look around see what I can do.

Sent from my SAMSUNG Galaxy S3 using Tapatalk Pro The folks at the UK H&H factory "museum" were GREAT! Some of their dealers/"ambassadeurs" here in the US....not so much. Wish I was going...have a blast there! (pun intended)
