SHOT Show 2019 Picks, and 2018 Fails

Disappointments from Last Year

Because I’m a whiny internet gun expert I want to remark on a few guns I was disappointed by from 2018’s SHOT Show. Hopefully SHOT show 2019 will fix a few of these.

Tavor TS12

Where is it? I love this gun and want one immensely. I loved shooting it at range day and was told first quarter 2018. Well here we are in 2019 and it’s nowhere to be seen. Come on guys, get me my high cap bullpup shotgun fix.

Desert Tech MDR

The MDR has been at a lot of SHOT Shows and as a company, they kept saying it’s coming soon! It finally came! It also proved to have lots of teething issues with FTFs being a consistent issue. It doesn’t seem like the wait was worth it.

SHOT Show 2019

The time is upon us, its time to buy tickets, make hotel reservations, take some airborne etc. We’ll soon be in the thralls of the biggest gun show in the world and I for one am quite excited to see what is coming next.
