LAS VEGAS (AP) — A weapons industry group based in the Connecticut town where a gunman killed 20 children and six adults last month is opening a Las Vegas Strip trade show Tuesday that’s expected to draw tens of thousands of manufacturers and enthusiasts.

Take that Harry Reid. You no good Marxist P.O.S.
I wish I could write AP copy.
But the partial lobotomy would be uncomfortable.
Better than the full lobotomy needed to be White House press secretary, though.
It will be closer to 100,000.
I remember attending the Vegas show back in the early 1970s and seeing one of Wild Bill Hickok’s .36 cal Colt Navy cap ‘n ball revolvers there for sale. The price tag was $15,000. One could easily get a quarter million dollars for the same piece now.
I was at the Shot Show a couple of years ago. If you enjoy firearms, Military/police gear, the shooting sports, it is heaven on earth. It is where manufacturers, importers, parts wholesalers and the big outdoor gear distributors show their wares to the operators of retail outlets or the government supply buyers. It’s not aimed at we retail buyers.
You see all the new stuff coming out and the existing gear line ups. The outdoor magazine writers and outdoor TV show are there to get stories and shoot TV video to run on cable networks. Everyone there is busy, pleasant and good folks. The focus is on good guns and gear for shooting sport or serious police/military use. No tanks or crew served weapons, just light and small arms.
This is not an open to the public “gun show”. The SHOT Show is a distributor and dealer gun industry trade show.
For an open to the public Gun Show go to the show at the AZ Fair Grounds in Phoenix this weekend,19-20 January.
This is a huge show with 5 buildings and a large outdoor tent covered area. See’ya there!

Thanks Biggirl.
Talked to someone at SHOT today..I couldn’t go because of a sick relative..anyway, he said he wouldn’t be able to get any inventory until 2015..all the manufacturers are swamped.
Also, I saw ruger unveiled three new bolt action rifles at media day..handwriting on the wall??
This administration has caused the sale of more guns in one country than any other time period in history.
I want a gun owners’ March On Washington. Bring you highest caliber weaponry on a March to the White House gates! A few torches and pitchforks should also be brought.
Wouldn’t THAT cause the media to stain their britches!
