Saturday was a nice day outside, I think.. I only saw it briefly as we walked from the main building the Gold Building (tents) across the street. Lots of people attended this year, I would not be surprised if record attendance will be broken again this year

Hands down at least among our group the coolest thing at the SHOT show this year is the prototype from Magpul. Lot's more to come on this one, stay tuned

Another prototype is a bullpup in 5.56. About the size of a PS90, but in 5.56x45...looks promising

Of course many people are awaiting their Masada here are a few pics in 7.62x39 of course many more pics of this one on the way too

A few quick pics of the 5.56x45 Masada

Some flip up back up sights which should be available soon from Magpul for around $100

Big news for AK47 fans  is Norinco USA. Soon we will have 100% US made Norinco AK47s Some favorites like the Type 56, AK drum mags and even the AR drum are on the way as we speak. We hope to offer as much new info as possible on this exciting news
