SHOT Show 2015 What Do You Want To Know?
SHOT Show 2014 gave us a lot to write about and helped shape some of the articles we wrote the rest of this year.
We’re going back to Las Vegas in 2015 to take another run at SHOT. This time we’re taking two dedicated audio/video team members and we’ve sponsored an Airsoft industry professional to check out force-on-force training tools for us.
Expect a lot more from us in 2015.
Just like last year, though, we want to know what you want us to check out. Some great suggestions from 2014:
- Faxon Firearms — who turned out to be a great company and sponsored our very first giveaway
- MagPul’s AK47 magazine
- Voodoo Tactical’s sling bag
- The C39 Micro Draco (what a long way it’s come since the overpriced version at SHOT)
- Kel-Tec’s KSG
- Kel-Tec’s bullpup RFB rifle
- Advanced Armament (especially meeting John Hollister)
- 5.11 ‘s discreet carry line
So, with the 2015 SHOT Show just a little over a month away, what are you interested in?

where should I throw next year’s budget. . Tools or ammo
CZ Scorpion EVO
I’m most eager for info pertaining to the Desert Tech MDR.
+1 for this comment
Pistol caliber SBR’s and braces, Big Bore Revolvers in satin or polished Stainless Steel (NOT that cheap aluminum looking, bead-blasted SS that S&W is now using). Also innovative new companies like Kel-Tec.
I would like to know if Faxon is going to make different length barrels (sbr length) for the ARAK uppers.
I think it’s an awesome concept
Besides the 12.5″ they’re already making for the 5.56 platforms? I’m vaguely remembering hearing/reading something that they can’t go any shorter than 12.5″ for their current platform. Hopefully, the Shepherd will reply with a more definitive answer.

Correct, 12.5″ is as short as they can go due to the upper design :

Any updates to the KPOS, Roni, Triarii, and any new similar concepts.
Fab Defense is supposed to have a new polymer PDW conversion kit, idk if it will be at the show…hopefully!
+1 on the FAB Defense polymer PDW kit. ZFI claims it’s going to be there. I like my KPOS G2, but am always on the lookout for good stuff, especially if it’s lighter and smaller.
The burning question for me: is IWI-US going to offer factory accessories to convert the Galil ACE and Uzi Pro to SBRs?
