What neat news from SHOT 2011?

[Bailey Guns]

I've seen the following:

• S&W Governor...their version of the Taurus Judge. Will shoot .45LC, .45ACP and .410
• Ithaca is back in the 1911 business
• The Kimber Solo small 9mm
• Polymer-framed Taurus Judge "Public Defender"
• Bren-Ten is back...built by Spirit Arms and VLTOR
• Freedom Arms single shot hunting pistol
• Some new 6mmx45 cartridge...built on .223 cases? 100gr bullet at 2600 - 2800 FPS.

Anything else?

The lightweight OBRs from Larue Tactical were the only thing I saw of any interest. 6lbs for the 5.56 version, 8lbs for the 7.62.

Overall kind of a downer. Nothing groundbreaking.

Did someone get you your yearly "dillo" ? Bowers didn't go so I probably won't get a Shot Show one.

-KRISS announced semi and full auto configs for their new vector. Not sure if its only going to be offered as an AOW, or if they might put a 16" barrel on it...
(if you havent checked out the way this thing works, you should. Its beyond genius)

-I really like the new crimsontrace wood grips for 1911's
(not sure if theyre being offered for anything else?)

-LULA came out with the baby UPLULA for .22 mags
(pretty sure you can use it for .380 too if im not mistaken)

-Colts 1911-2011 model 1911pistol announced. I might just have to get one of my own

-LSR-50 bullpup .50BMG announced by Sabre Defence. Dunno how they pulled it off, but it looks pretty sweet.

-Keltec apparently now has a bullpup shotgun?

-Aimpoint now has something called a PRO (patrol rifle optic) which is basically a refined compM2 with a 2-MOA dot. Whoopee.

thats all i can think of off the top of my head....

Wow...

I just looked up that new Sabre .50BMG. I don't know if I like the looks of that or not.

OK, now I do. I like it.

I got super lucky and a fellow member was kind enough to pick me up one! lunch is definitely in order!

I thought that the highlights were the Kel-tec shotgun, American rifle scope rings, CMMG's updated 22 ar conversion and their quick change ar upper setup. Posted on a different thread then found this one so...

The ATF is going to have an announcement tomorrow concerning Saiga shotguns.

it isnt going to be good news.
