Frequently Asked Questions

What are some of the innovative firearm accessories shown at Shot Show 2025?

Shot Show 2025 featured unique items like Barnett's lever-action crossbows, HM Defense's redesigned .50 Cal receiver, and KGM's accessory rail-mounted suppressor. CAC also presented a down-venting bolt carrier group for AR-15s.

What is the KGM FD Suppressor and how does it mount?

The KGM FD Suppressor is an innovative suppressor that mounts directly to a firearm's accessory rail, not the barrel. This design eliminates the need for threaded barrels or muzzle devices and allows for a low-profile installation.

What is the benefit of CAC's down vent bolt carrier group?

CAC's down vent bolt carrier group is designed to vent gases into the magazine well, rather than into the ambient space. This reportedly reduces the noise perceived by the shooter by up to 7 dB.

What new optics were featured from Shot Show 2025?

Gideon Optics released the Valor Mini, a compact red dot sight. It's designed to be small enough to co-witness with iron sights on a pistol without needing suppressor height sights and offers both red and green reticle options.
