The last few years have been underwhelming and I haven't seen anything that blew my skirt up enough to get me to spend money. This year is different....
I was already pretty sure I was going to buy a CS this year. I'm sold now that I'll be able to get extendable mags and different grip sizes for it. The FLUX 365 will be purchased, immediately. That Holosun IR laser/illuminator looks like a solid sub $1k option. I like Henry, I stock 300bo, and I have a 308 can. So that may happen. shit |

Quoted: I run drills and haven't found that to be the case. I prefer B&T because the ergos are better, and while technically direct blowback, the carrier is slowed by a hydraulic plunger, feels pretty close in recoil to an mp5. It's also a high quality milled gun and not a tac welded piece of sheet metal. View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted: Quoted: An MP5 is much faster on the clock than any blowback.

It's not delayed, it just has a buffer to reduce the carrier speed near the end of the stroke for less felt recoil, as I understand it. |

I'm gonna be so broke this year, the agenda so far
finish my jakl 300 acquire new Holosun IR get can out of jail for said jakl grab the cz bren 2 x39 get dedicated can for said Bren 2 hope CZ brings the BR or PPS to market Hope we get a jakl 308 or 6.5c acquire x57 (if they come out) Keep building my canik and HK collection Keep emailing S&W to buy the Keltec RDB design and rugedize it, but since they already have the Hellion, maybe Ruger or DD can. I dunno, I think this years shot is already better than the past 4-5 years ETA how could I forget the PWS URX |

Quoted: It was the first day, and when you posted this there wasn't any time to edit what you are describing. They were uploading live at the show. They will upload those later. View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted: Quoted: Like many others have said in this thread, the coverage has become awful. Rushed 10 minute videos about the same 5 products with 9 minutes of forced banter and bullshitting, and 1 minute of interspersed info. Is there anyone doing the old "Here's a long series of photos of new products with a one sentence description of each" thing anymore? Even something thats slightly similar? The best thing about it was that the smaller, niche, and more interesting stuff was covered during the show, and you didn't have to wait until a week later to hear about it. I get that these people won't get the clicks, likes, subscribers, and potential ad revenue from that format, but it really is so much easier to digest. It was the first day, and when you posted this there wasn't any time to edit what you are describing. They were uploading live at the show. They will upload those later. I meant all shot show coverage I’ve personally seen over the past few years, not yesterday’s range day specifically. Who will be uploading a long series of photos including “under the radar” type products with short descriptions instead of “Hey I’m here at the ___ Booth with Hank…” videos this year? Not trying to be a dick, lots of us would genuinely like to know who’s still doing the old school photo coverage thing. |

Between the Vuk and the Krinks I might need to work a little overtime
I wonder if they will have a 5.56 Vuk and if it will use the various 5.56 AK mags out there |

Watching people shoot in a video is something to be fast forwarded through. It’s a gun that recoils and is expected to be dependable-got it.
Info about design, purpose, cost is what we need. Video is a poor medium for that sort of information dissemination. I’m a Gen Xer and can live in both video and written worlds, but video sucks for this type of marketing. |

If they abandoned it, it's for good reason. There are a good number of MP5 clones out there now, and it's damn near impossible to compete with the nosediving Turkish Lira. If PSA released their MP5 a few years ago, they'd probably have a significant segment of the market, but as it stands they'd be competing for a small slice of the pie. |
