Let's talk Shot Show 2013

[chrish]

To help Bawanna out w/ his desire to talk about something else...and I gotta get my BP down from all these political discussions. Anybody seen anything COOL in the Shot Show 2013 news/feeds? Thought maybe we could start a list w/ links for folks to see what they might have missed.

We've already seen a few threads, Kahr CW380, Sig P227.

I thought the Sig MPX looks pretty slick, the civilian version has a 9.5" skeleton-ish muzzle brake that is the innards of a suppressor. Just slide on what looks to be a plain metal tube...shhhhhh. Very cool.

I would love to have the SIG MPX-C but alas I don't feel it will ever see the civilian market no matter what happens with the possible legislation.

In that boomershooter link, there is a pict of a Stag AR w/ a really slick looking rail system. It's the diamondhead T, looks pretty cool. Doesn't look like its new, but I had never heard of them. Pretty nice looking fore-grip/rail system.

Always cool to see the stuff at Shot, whether it's new products or existing accessories on new products.

I kinda agree w/ that. There has been a Sig 516 pistol on their site for years and I have never seen one for sale anywhere, in the 7.5 or 10.5" version. I was seriously wanting the 10.5" version, but just never figured it ever made it out into the market. I'm sure law enforcement got some, but I guess there hasn't been much of a market for AR pistols.

I bet it'd sell now!

I have two Sig Sauer handguns and thought seriously about their AR pistol.
I could have gotten one if I wanted.
In the end I read too many reports of quality control issues and that they are overpriced.
There are others available that I would prefer, but they are not cheap.
In the end I went for a high end Arsenal AK74 pistol.
