Frequently Asked Questions

What are the requirements to attend Shot Show?

To attend Shot Show, you must be active duty military, law enforcement, directly involved in the gun industry, or part of the media. Larger companies often have passes they can distribute to individuals with strong industry connections.

What is the main purpose of Shot Show?

Shot Show's primary goal is to serve as a platform for the firearms industry to connect with distributors and to launch new products for the upcoming year. It's a key event for showcasing innovations and fostering business relationships.

What are some recommended optics for an AR-15?

For an AR-15, a red dot sight is ideal for distances up to 250 yards. For longer range shooting, consider a low power variable optic (LPVO) like a 1-6x or 1-8x, which can effectively reach out to 600 yards.

Are compensators necessary on 9mm pistols?

Compensators on 9mm pistols are not strictly necessary but can help keep the muzzle flatter, similar to how compensators are used on rifles. Proper grip, stance, and training are key for recoil management.
