More than 65,000 people gathered in Las Vegas, Nevada this week for the nations largest annual gun industry convention, SHOT Show 2020. Organized by the National Shooting Sports Foundation (NSSF), SHOT Show brings together the worlds best in shooting sports, law enforcement, hunting, and armed forces to share their products and businesses, but more importantly, to shoot the globes latest and greatest firearms in the Nevada desert.
With more than 2,000 exhibiting manufacturers and companies crammed into the 13-acre Sands Convention Center, its physically impossible for a single visitor to see everything. But after just two days of being tightly surrounded by guns, ammunition, Navy SEALs, military dogs, tactical gear, camouflage, and American flags, my faith has been restored in the status of freedom and the Second Amendment in this country

No CNN on monitors?
Probably started with them but they keep failing due to excessive lead in the monitors. . . .
I must have this.
Apparently if you have $17,800 you can
based upon the FREEDOM THRONE stand.
That would look great in a man cave..
Nice. I don’t see that fitting into my decor, but I do have the cigar ashtray, cut down from a 5”/54 powder case.
For almost $18k does not look very comfortable. 90 degree backrest and does not appear to be able to recline.
My tractor seat is more ergonomic.
Do you need a license? Is it considered an arsenal? ;)
FReepmail me if you want to be added to or deleted from the list.

Virginia’s new government will probably ban this chair by the end of the month.
I went to the SHOT show in 2014 and it was fantastic. Got to meet Gunny, MOH recipient Sammy L. Davis, and several war dogs.

Have you ever wondered how many guns the “gun grabbers” originate every time they threaten to pass anti-gun laws?
As long as nobody objected to guns and paid no attention to them, gun violence was lower and deaths from guns were lower because most guns back then were stashed in the closet unless you were hunting or target practicing. Now with more guns due to fear of not having one, all of us feel the need to have one for protection. I think my head is spinning. Unintended consequences.
I’m at the SHOT Show. That FN “mini tank” (as the article calls it) it actually a remote controlled combat weapon. The gun is a 37mm cannon, the same as used on apache helicopters, but shorter than the A-10 cannon round. Watching it in action is AWESOME!!!
Sorry, it is a 30 mm, not 37mm....Fumble fingers. Chuck Norris was there at the Glock booth today—also awesome.
I have a pair of planters made from the brass end caps of a pair of Shillelagh ATGMs from my M-60A2 days.
Yeah, one.
I ended up with my Grandpa's lamp he made while touring in the Pacific during WWII and Korea as a machinist/Bosun's Mate. It's turned out of different size brass casings.
It's also hand engraved with the ports they visited during his service.
And it still works! Priceless. d:^)
Love to See
