Ready for Shot Show Industry Day at the Range
Gun Watch ^ | 18 January, 2015 | Dean Weingarten

I drove up from Yuma to Las Vegas today, to go to the Industry day at the Range tomorrow.  It is nice to be one of the media invited to this event, which most of the industry from around the world uses to highlight and show off the latest in technological improvements and new products.  If I want to take my laptop, they will have media tents to do stories from, complete with wi-fi to blog directly to the net.  Pretty cool stuff.

Always nice to run into professional colleagues as well.  I am looking forward to seeing Alan Korwin, Robert Farago, Rob Morse, Fredy Riehl, and many others.  The in box is filling up with invitations to visit particular booths out at the range.  It will be a busy day tomorrow.

I open carried on the way up, no problems.  I did, however, take care to avoid California, by following AZ 95 up through Bullhead City, directly into Nevada.  It adds a few miles, but an advantage is that Bullhead City seems to have the cheapest gas along the whole route.  I saw it there at $1.77 a gallon.  It will be nice when we get national reciprocity.

Shot show has far more than can be seen in a few days. As a professional gun and politics writer, I consider it one of the "must go to" events of the year.

My dream vacation would be to attend a “Shot Show” in Las Vegas before I die. I don’t know if that will ever happen, but I hope one day to be able to do it.
