SHOT SHOW <strong>2017</strong><br />
SPECIAL REPORT SHOT SHOW <strong>2017</strong><br />
Held in Las Vegas, Nevada each January the NSSF SHOT Show is an absolute must-visit for anyone involved<br />
in any kind of shooting discipline; this year Bill made the pilgrimage to “Sin City” to report back on what’s<br />
coming our way in relation to the tactical and firearms world for <strong>2017</strong>!<br />
The 39th Shooting, Hunting and Outdoor Trade<br />
(SHOT) Show, owned and operated by the<br />
National Shooting Sports Foundation (NSSF),<br />
signalled a positive year ahead for the firearms<br />
industry, both in the USA and internationally.<br />
Strong attendance, upbeat buyers and sellers,<br />
and a series of packed special events that<br />
collectively made up “SHOT Week” resulted in<br />
one of the top-rated SHOT Shows ever!<br />
The show spanned January 17th-20th <strong>2017</strong> at the Sands Expo<br />
in Las Vegas. Industry professionals packed the aisles from<br />
the get go, and by the time the doors closed on the Friday<br />
afternoon attendance totalled nearly 65,000, surpassing last<br />
year’s turnout to make it the second most attended SHOT Show<br />
in the history of the event.<br />
I’ve been to SHOT Show on a number of occasions now, and<br />
if you’ve never visited the sheer scale of what is on offer will<br />
blow your mind; you’ll end up walking miles to see so much<br />
innovation that it quite literally takes your breath away, and<br />
it’s the perfect opportunity to make new connections and reestablish<br />
old ones.<br />
Now we have the IWA Outdoor and Classics Show here in<br />
Europe, and I’m pleased to report that it continues to grow<br />
steadily, but SHOT is like IWA on steroids.<br />
