This year, almost 64,000 people were in Las Vegas for the annual SHOT (Shooting, Hunting and Outdoor Trade) Show. SHOT brings together the latest and greatest in firearms, hunting, and the great outdoors. The conference ran until January 23, and exhibitors displayed powerful new hunting gear, weapons, and vehicles for something a little more exciting than your usual day at the shooting range. Attendees were active on Twitter throughout the conference, and here are some of the most impressive finds:
Vehicles:
There weren’t too many new vehicles at SHOT outside of modified trucks, but the new Wolverine R-spec from Yamaha Outdoors looks incredible, and it makes a day spent at the golf course look like a tea party.
