Hey guys if you could take some pics of and post your impressions of Rock River Arm's new .308 semiauto that would be awesome! -Hartmann |
|

+1 It hurts my eyes. I wonder if I'll get booted out of the show if I try to take pics w/ the phone. |
|
|
I will of course be there and plan on reporting a host of night vision related topics and products. One of my night vision rifle scopes will actually be displayed this year at a booth! More news to come on this! Thanks!

+1 And for sure, lots of pics of the FN ARM models. And pics/info on: - Noveske lightweight profile barrels - LW MRS upper (if they show it). Preferably with Marianne holding it will probably think of more stuff later have fun </wish I was going> |

See if you can dig up my "TRG IS GAY" sign. I think I left it in a bathroom last year.
Or at a strip club. Or...somewhere. I can't remember. |
|
Be on the lookout for Brownell's discount code . Last year was 10% off dealers price. Please post if the same deal applies this year. Stocked up on some good deals
|
|
I can get you pictures of goatboy, and I can get you pictures of hot girls... but you may need to use your photoshop powers to bring the two together.
Stay tuned for some exciting announcements from LW which I hope to have up before the show but I don't think Marianne is with LW any more . I will be adding LW products to the ARMORY in the next day or two... along with some special pricing/offerings for AR15.com members. |

Works for me. TRG |

|
same here I hope to be able to use it again. I'm holding off on some projects till the code hits. |
|
|
If you would, please nudge the guys down at the Colt booth and tell them , we are waiting.
And wanting!! j/k Like what you are doing with the armory............... and the SHOT reports idea is a winner! |

Such male chauvinists around here- afraid of a little pink to spice things up... Actually I had no idea what you were talking about- thought maybe the "neon" pink of the convention center image was bothering you but then realized there was a problem with Firefox displaying pink on rollovers. Should be fixed, but let me know if it's not... (I need to go home before I can get to a PC with multiple browsers installed). |

Stop by Armament Technology's booth and tell them I said hello will ya.
|
|
Could you report on the Alexander Arms 6.5 grendel prices and/or if they will have cheap(ish) ammo available. AA should be unveiling their cheaper uppers and I believe wolf will be showing their line of 6.5G ammo.

More pics of the Show! Girlie pics are good, but really, more of the general/booth shots if you've got them. Info on 6.5 vs 6.8 if you want to get specific! Thanks and enjoy the show! Dan |
|
Almost goes w/o saying but double-tap all the same. I'd also be keen on any news of the HK45 & any of its derivatives. |

I am curious to see whether the RRA .308 looks like the discontinued Bushmaster 308.
Oh and say hi to the guy from the Woolrich tactical clothing line. |
|
Jeese, I figured Site Staff would be on top of things around here 2nd Reply Down HERE I just want to know info on the FN ARM-L, like when/if it will be out, price, etc. Thanks, WIZZO EDIT: And yes, Aimless, the LAR-10 looks like the BAR-10 because RRA made them for Bushy. I had a conversation with the head armorer about it last week. After Bushy dropped it, RRA had a million bucks worth of parts lying around so they decided to come out with their own using the existing parts. I IM'd back and forth with Steve/RRAMODERATOR in their Industry forum and he said they have corrected the BAR-10's shortcomings. |

The obvious ones...
Robinson Arms- Do they really have an XCR at the show, and is it a production model, and when are they concrete shipping? SIG- What's the big announcment FN- Firm...er info on the FS2000 (dates & MSRP) Kel Tec- What the hell is up with their website? |
|
You will have to get in line behind me to heckle Remington and Barret about screwing up the 6.8SPC for three years and counting.
I'll be the in the AR15.com hometown t-shirt at the Glock display screaming "Where's the carbine, Gaston!?" |
|
|
After seeing the pictures of the SIG 556 from Sigforums.com, when checking out the sig booth please pay special attention to how the pistol grip and arish stock mate to the reciever. Particularly it looks like an adapter is in place on the new rifle to allow it to use AR stocks. If that's the case and it can be removed to go back to the originial, I know people would like to know.
Barret 99-416 too. |
|
Please don’t tell me that’s dealers cost? |
|
|
Me too, but I'm going to have to wait till Saturday. Can't get off work tomorrow or Friday. |

Can you guys try to get a release date on the Colt 1020?
Also like to hear the straight skinny on the General Dynamics news and what it means to Colts near and long term The registration on the SHOT web site lists Colt's Manufacturing, but hopefully that is semantics and we will hear/see Colt's Defense as well. Good news is that Lt. Gen Wm. M. Keys USMC(Ret), Maj. Gen Jim Battaglini USMC(Ret), Mike Reissig, Mark Roberts, and Dick Welch will be there....... They know what is happening. thanks! |

Prelim images... late to dinner, so I'll post more later... apologies for the quality of the images/viewer, but it was the quickest way to get them all up in a few min....Day 1 Gallery
Spent a good part of the day doing business, but I managed to take a few pics anyway... feel free to discuss here, and I'll be back after dinner/going out with some of the pictured industry "reps". |
|
I see the FN SCAR was present, any info about a civilan available version? If so, were dates or prices given?
|
|
Also, where can I get that AR15 shirt in those pics? |
|
|
+1, that is a cool shirt. |
||
|
You like the shirts? Those were a quick run done for the show; can have more made up if there is an interest... when we get back we'll see what the interest level is, and run some more off... |
||
|
Do it, do it now! |
|||
|
I'd like to know about any pertinent Springfield Armory .45ACP XD info, especially what the ETA is for the 5in model. Thanks.
|
|
Sig 550? 551? 552?
AK in 6.5 Grendel???? .50 Beowulf in bulk or Cheap? Domestic Steyr AUG? Robinson XCR? |
|
Yes, shirts are cool.
The more I see that damn I-Shot rifle case the more I want one. Also the SCAR, it's not a huge as I pictured it would be. |
|
Well, then, color me interested. |
|||
|
Me too! I am also interested in the SCAR! |
||||
|
Shit yeah, I want one! And how can Smith and Wesson get away with charging 1700 for an AR?! |
