I have been excited to see this pistol since it was introduced at SHOT show in January. I really would love a small, concealable, manageable .45ACP carry [...read more]

NRA AM – Sig Sauer

IMG_3284 - Version 2

The Sig Sauer booth was packed at the 2012 NRA AM so they appear to be doing something right. I had my 5yr old son with me at the show and the people working the Sig booth were very friendly to both of us. This was good to see as I (like many others) have [...read more]

NRA AM – Smith & Wesson (including M&P Shield)

IMG_3319 - Version 2

Here are some pictures from the S&W booth at the 2012 NRA Annual Meeting in St Louis. Overall, I thought the new M&P Shield was very comfortable to hold and offered an improved trigger (vs the standard M&P).
