Who's going to SHOT 2024?

[Roc Doc]

Haven't been since 2019, and looking forward to walking miles with other gun weirdos and having some good meals. Driving in Tuesday, leaving Friday AM'ish.

Staying at The Mirage.

Meetups?

 

[Aisin]

I’m thinking about going

 

[Roc Doc]

Talked to Vortex this AM and they are NOT going. Surprised me for sure.

What does a ticket cost?

Do you still have to be "in the industry"?

Do you still have to be "in the industry"?

Yes according to their website.

It's not a public event, but getting an invitation is ridiculously easy.

So, how would a person not in the industry get an invite?

 

[gozuki]

I'm sure you already have a pm

Last year was 7 miles per day of walking for the first two days and 4 miles the third day for us. A lot of the booths did not appeal to me, mostly because I live in CA and it's depressing not being able to easily get or afford most of the cool new things here.

The RSF fundraiser raffle was good to me though.

Nope

 

[Roc Doc]

What does a ticket cost?

$75 to see the exhibit halls.

How do I acquire a ticket? I’ve been wanting to go for the last 5 years.

Some people get on the payroll of a FFL or mfg. Know anyone like that?

When I wanted to get into PRI years ago and I was no longer "in the industry", I made up a business name and made a business card online. That was enough proof to get me in. I'm not sure what SHOT requires or how strict they are with the proof.

 

[Roc Doc]

Heading out in the AM. Any requests,?

I had a plastic clear badge holder and I didn't notice my badge fell out. Attended 2 days before I noticed when a guy asked my name. You could wear a ghille suit and get in

Tell Keystone, Joey at their sub-contracted store is a liar

Some conspicuous absences. No Sig Sauer or CMMG.
