2006 Shot Show

[dwhunter]

Wonder what kind of surprises are instore at the 06 Shot Show? Anybody know anything?

I'll know a lot more after I get back-- hopefully. If not, I'll wonder why I went.

Last year, I found the Knight Vision and the A&H lever action to be the most interesting "new for 2005" models. Neither have shipped yet that I know of, so maybe they will be more fascinating in 2006 when they can actually be fired :?:

Randy.....what about the Kight "Long Range"? Will it be there? Is that thing for real?

 

[Anonymous]

AFAIK, that one is done-- and ready to ship right now.

I have no doubt it will be a tack-driver; it finally adds what Knight has dismissed as not necessary for years-- dual recoil lugs.

It should make Knight's next "World Manufacturer's Championship" NMLRA win pretty easy for them-- last year, they did it with Revolutions. :?

 

[dwhunter]

Randy I think I've heard you say that nothing new is instore for Savage this year, right or wrong?

 

[Anonymous]

There is a LOT in store for Savage this year, but no changes to the 10ML-II that I am aware of until at least 2007.

 

[dwhunter]

So any insight in what they might do in 07?

 

[Anonymous]

No, Sir. A quick look at the firearms industry shows that even a 2005 announcement for 2005 does not mean it will happen in 2005, or at all.

HOPEFULLY...eliminate the vent liner altogether, a dedicated bolt-stop instead of using the rear action screw, and maybe a recoil pad? :yeah:

I like your way of thinking! :wink:

I was impressed by the American Classic when I saw it, moreso after I bought one. Now, we have the "Classic" and "Euro Classic," so I'd love to see the 10ML-II get the same treatment, plus a thumbhole for Wolfhound.

Sign me up!!! :yeah:

They already introduced a neat new coyote killer for Wolfhound-- now, if they just did it in a muzzleloader for him.

 

[MCee67]

That and with a thumbhole for a lefty (Me) would be most helpful.

I was real impressed with that American Classic also, enough so that I plan on buying one this next year.
