The Stockpile Defense team is going to Vegas!
SHOT Show is an annual trade show for the shooting, hunting, and outdoor industry. This event attracts thousands of exhibitors and 40,000+ attendees annually, including us! The show features the latest products and technologies in the industry.
Tons of companies announce and release new products during this week. From our inside sources, 2023 is looking to be a great year for new products and innovation. In 2020, NSSF reported 22.8 million firearm purchases. During years like this, the operations side of manufacturers are solely focused on making more of their existing products. Because of this, new products are commonly held back until the market slows. With firearm sales now leveling out, it’s expected that manufacturers will pull out all the stops to boost sales in 2023. Needless to say, not every product released at SHOT show makes it to market, or should make it to market (Paging Kel-Tec and Taurus). We’ll handle new products from our go-to manufacturers and find new brands to carry in the shop.
Last year we handled the Holosun SCS, Walther Arms PDP PRO, Criterion CORE barrels in .300BLK, EoTech EFLX and more!
More than 15,000 firearms are on display in the 13 miles of aisles in the convention center.
We will be covering as much area as possible during the week. Below you’ll see the shortlist of companies our team plans to visit. In addition to these, what manufacturers do you want us to visit? Do you have any specific questions you want answered? Comment below!
See the full floorplan/exhibitor list HERE.
Keep an eye on our blog this month, as we’ll be posting updates with videos and photos you don’t want to miss!

Please keep an eye out for guns that work with people with small hands and short fingers. And excessories, sorry accessories for the Walter PDP! Thank you.
Is Beretta bringing anything new?
The new Eotech products will be interesting to get y’alls opinion on.
Maybe bug MTM on product availability?
Don’t forget to visit the bear creek and ATF booths!
I’m stoked to see what you guys find! I’d like to see what some of the action is on the Taurus revolvers with the red dot mounts, also interested when you hit the ADM booth if you could let us know what you think of their 3 gun branded rifle. And let’s not forget Dissident Arms if there’s a KS12 I’d like to hear some opinions. Thanks Guys !
I would love to see what is brewing over at Staccato, especially the CS. Hoping you get some of their line up in the shop. Also all the goods from LMT.
Thoughts on the new Surefire’s vs Cloud would be cool.
I’d like to see if Scalarworks is coming out with anything new, maybe have some of their mounts in store. They would make great mounts for the optics you guys have in store.
I want to see what TwoSee/2C is all about. Specifically what optics they’re cowitness sights are compatible with or what optic systems they plan on being compatible with.
I am especially interested in pistols chambered in 5.56 with barrels between 8 to 10 inches long that are good for home defense, if that is something that does or will exist.
Thank you,
Bob Potter
Looks like you got a good itinerary going on. You going to do any videos, or just post stuff here and on the FB page?

Check out Rugged Suppressors new ti alaskan. Also shame them for the price of their proprietary mount adapter.
Check out ruger and see what’s up with marlin production of 1894s.
Talk to sig and tell them to build a fully metal x-ten in an elite dark and make sure it has a threaded barrel.
If you see wayne la pierre putzing around kick him in the balls for doing absolutely fucking nothing for gun rights in the last 15 years.
You guys don’t normally do much with airguns but check out Daystate if you can. Anything new and exciting in the precusuib airgun world?
Heard that Leupold is coming out with a new 2-10 lpvo, in I think the MK5 series. I’d like to hear what you guys think of it.
