Talk Back to Me

SHOT SHOW: Where those not at the show want to be, and those at the show want to go home.
Not really, but it's funny. Laugh with me.

This year at SHOT SHOW 2025, we noticed a different tone than the years prior. Instead of retrenchment and celebrating surviving another year, the industry displayed a refreshing sense of optimism and a willingness to venture into new things. While new products made small steps towards innovation and new frontiers, the attitude of the people at the show told a different story: optimism is back on the menu.

In this episode we talk about new gear trends, the overall attitude of the industry, and a few noteworthy examples of making what we had just a little bit better.
