SHOT Show Media Day
There was a lot going on at 2012 SHOT Show’s Media Day at the Range. 1200 media personnel were expected to show up and, based on the crowd, I’d say that expectation was met. There were a variety of new products on display, both in the shooting areas as well as the non-shooting areas, including newly debuted firearms, gear, off-road vehicles, mobile apps and more. GunLink spoke with numerous exhibitors, shot some guns, tried out some gear and generally had a great time. A big thanks goes out to all of the exhibitors and sponsors who made it all possible, including the range transportation, lunch and everything else.
Some of the new firearms products that we were most impressed with included Springfield Armory’s brand new XDs pistol, some of the new offerings from Slidefire Solutions and Parabellum Armament. We look forward to sharing information about these new products (and many more) over the coming days. Keep an eye right here for updates.
The Countdown to SHOT Show is On
Tick tock tick tock… The countdown to the 2012 NSSF SHOT Show is on and GunLink is headed there!
If you didn’t already know, the SHOT Show is being held Januay 17-20, 2012 at the Sands Expo & Convention Center in Las Vegas and it’s the largest and most comprehensive trade show for all professionals involved with the shooting sports, hunting and law enforcement industries. Last year’s show drew a total attendance of close to 60,000 with well over 1,500 exhibitors.
We at GunLink are excited to have the opportunity to cover the show this year. It should be a lot of fun, both for us as well as you, the readers. We’ve already got a list of places to go and people to see but, to make sure that our SHOT Show coverage is tailored to you, we want to hear which exhibitors and other show features YOU want to see covered. Let us know here on the blog, over on the forums or via Twitter what you want to get out of our SHOT coverage.
We’ll be posting show updates and news before, during and after the show through our various channels. We have various opportunities for interested parties to syndicate our SHOT Show content through their own blogs and media as well as opportunities for GunLink SHOT Show coverage sponsorship. If you’d like more information about these opportunities, please let us know as soon as possible and we can send you the details.
