DustinIL Posted January 17, 2012 Report Share Posted January 17, 2012 Post pics of anything that has piqued your interest at this year's SHOT Show. I'll go first. A new entry into the CCW market from Springfield Armory, and in .45ACP no less! I'm digging it: http://www.gunsamerica.com/blog/springfield-armory-xds/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
imschur Posted January 18, 2012 Report Share Posted January 18, 2012 Great Idea!!Beretta ARX .22http://youtu.be/HJR_pbljDOsBeretta brings us their new ARX160 rifle chambered in .22 caliber. The ARX has polymer/steel-reinforced receivers, continuing the trend of their CX4 Carbines and PX line of pistols to implement ambidextrous controls to include the mag release and selector switch. The stock is both retractable and side-folding. The ARX also features a MIL STD M1913 full-length rail, and ships with Beretta’s proprietary flip-up sights, which lock down and are sprung to return to the upright position if they sustain an impact. Beretta is gearing up to produce the line in the USA, the major delay in introducing the design to the US market in years past; the best part of the ARX is that Beretta hopes to produce the platform chambered for 5.56mm, and 7.62×59mm (.308 Win). This model is so new that both actual overall weight retail prices were not yet available at the time of this writing, but most significant of the ARX160 is its incredibly lightweight.

Robocop1051 Posted January 18, 2012 Report Share Posted January 18, 2012 Fresh news straight from the SHOT show in Las Vegas, Geissele will be introducing a rail system for the AR15 platform! Available in the next six to eight weeks and in sizes ranging from 7″ to 15″ it features a large barrel nut which makes for more contact area for the rail system to provide extra rigidity. Keep your eyes here for more info direct from SHOT. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Retired JM Posted January 19, 2012 Report Share Posted January 19, 2012 I like the look of the AR160. I generally don't let aesthetics drive what I want when it comes to firearms, but that thing is dead sexy. If Beretta can bring a 5.56 version to market at ~$1500 or so, it'll be an FN MK 16/17 on a budget. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wrote them to request an 8-round magazine single-stack XDM, with the 4.5" would be ideal.I've also said quite often that the XD/XDM platform is begging...just BEGGING...to be chambered in 10mm!Jon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

imschur Posted January 21, 2012 Report Share Posted January 21, 2012 EOtech Zombie Every once in a while a manufacturer is intuitive enough about their customer base to know that certain products, though not necessarily more functional, capture the essence of what their patrons love. Available now, the new Zombie holoscope from EOTech is just such a product. While the crisp biohazard reticle may not enhance performance over a traditional reticle, it sure does embody the “cool” factor, and we’re sure a lot of customers will appreciate it. Besides the biohazard reticle, the scope bears the same icon in white atop the scope window hood; powered by a single CR123 battery. Additionally, EOTech unveiled a new magnifier for their scopes. Rather than the old pivoting swing mount, the new 3x MSS1 magnifier utilizes a lengthwise hinge on one side of the Picatinny plane, so that the magnifier may be instantly flipped over to the side, out of the way for the fast acquisition at close quarters for which the EOTechs are famous. The base mounts to the rail via a throw-lever mount. For more information, visit eotech-inc.com, or call 734-741-8868. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robocop1051 Posted January 22, 2012 Report Share Posted January 22, 2012 I haven't been WOW'd by a single piece of news yet... Except that some boothes in the show were closed down and the attendees were escorted out by security. Something about copyright infringement with FN Herstal.
