Pre-SHOT SHOW 09 rumors, guesses, hopes, etc..

[Stickman]

More new info in regarding SHOT 09. It sounds like there will be some new slings making appearances, with Magpul being rumored to release their version that they've mentioned a few times in the past. A few others are rumored to be arriving at SHOT as well.

I heard another rumor that someone was going to be held responsible for some things. If we think back over the past few years, it could be any number of manufacturers or persons upset with each other for personal issues, or it could be something much larger. I've got my own guesses, but will stay quiet on it for now.


I heard a comment earlier this week and was told to get ready for something outside the box. Sadly, I've got no additional info, and I don't know if it ties in to anything we've already mentioned.

Its pretty well rumored that Glock is releasing its 4th generation of pistols, and changes appear pretty minor from the image I've seen.

[Stickman]

I can't remember if we've already posted this or not, but Daniel Defense has announced they will be releasing their complete AR15 at SHOT. Along with the complete weapon will be a new VFG, new rail, and new rear sight (non-folding).

DD sounds like they will be selling this as a complete weapon only, and not selling lowers ( I don't blame them). The lowers are machined in house, and have a flared magwell.

Any idea what the VFG will look like?

[Stickman]

I've only seen a low quality image of one, it appears to be similar it size/ look to the TD model, though perhaps a little smaller. I need to emphasis that its a first look at a small picture, so that doesn't say much about it.

There are only so many ways to skin that cat. I am anxious to see how it locks onto the rail. Thanks!

... or supressors, or optics mounts, or ...

Seems like there is a lot of "territory marking" going on in our industry these days. I guess that's nothing new, but I always hate to hear about it.

that's what i had my heart set on, but man it's a pretty big optic.

but i'm planning on getting a TR24 and a TA33-8. i can't fit in another Trij scope, especially the mighty 11

[NickDrak]

Im hoping Eotech releases a new version of their 500 series optic with an upgraded (CR123) battery box that is also compatible with the LaRue & ADM QD riser mounts. (NO built-in riser/ARMS mount)

The new 1-4x Accupoint looks to be very promising as well.

[joffe]

[OUTLAW-ONE]
