2018 SHOT Show Review

[LRRPF52]

Joe and I hit SHOT Show last week. I'm usually there every year unless I'm outside the States for some reason.

I'll relate some of the observations I made over 4 days of beating the floors, talking with vendors, and following up with contacts.

There is a lot of good news for 6.5 Grendel and the future.

I saw so many new and established AR15 companies making Grendels, it was hard to keep track of them.

We had a good talk with AA, LaRue Tactical, CORE15, Odin Works, CMMG, 2A Armament, Precision Firearms, Iosso products, Precision Armament, Grafs and Sons, Ruger, Ascend Armory, Frank at Maxim Firearms, Lehigh Defense, CProducts, and a bunch of others.

Lots of new things are in the works for 6.5 Grendel.

There were some new and interesting 6.5 Grendel AR15s from companies I've never seen before. They were in areas where pictures are not allowed, and no literature was available since they were behind glass cases in many instances.

We're just following up with the companies we need to, helping get some Grendel-specific products to you in the near future.
