Shot show 2017 was an experience. Aside meeting with major suppliers, it opened the possibility to take a look at the upcoming market and see what it all entails. There are
some serious brand-new eye-candy weapons coming to market this year. If you
want to know what to look forward look at our picks for the next year. 2016 was
the hottest year in history, but the gun world promises to deliver even hotter
news. So, let’s start the count and get amazed by the newest technology.
1 – American Tactical semi-automatic
Omni MAXX .410
The
AR-pattern semi-automatic shotgun is probably coming to the stage in 2017 and
promises to deliver some real damage to the market. The gas-operated piston
system fires a variety of shells and ships with removable 5-round magazine.
Price: $649.95
2 - Avidity Arms PD10 9 mm Pistol
This
4.1’’ barrel Pistol is the best of both worlds. The shortness of its size makes
it perfect for concealed-carry, but that doesn’t come at the expense of smooth
shooting goodness. It has an aggressive style, not very common in for personal
defense built weapons, and that is just perfect. It’s a great combination of
form, purpose and style, and the brand, which is the new-kid-on-the-block in
the gun world, will surely make a lasting impression with this one. This is
enough to say that Avidity Arms is here to stay. Price $499.00
3 - Bond Arms Pistols
The
Texan based brand offers a more polished version of what they got us used to.
The stylish 4.25’’ is a functional pistol as well as a personal statement. Its
2nd Amendment decorated barrel is a mark that will leave no one
indifferent. The textured American flag motif on the grip is in combination
with the engravings homage to the gun bearing rights in the US, which are
placed on the best medium to spread the message. A pistol is nothing short of
perfect with an improved trigger and a removable trigger guard. Price: TBA
4 - Italian Firearms Group (IFG)
Howdah .45 Colt/.410 Pistol
IFG
is a different type of weapon compared to the other proposals. In fact, it
belongs to a class of itself. Its classic style is reminiscent of other eras,
but it is every bit as functional as other more modern looking toys. Price: TBA
5 - Winchester Repeating Arms
Last
but not least, the tubular magazine 1866 Short Rifle will come in the 44-40
Win. And .38 Spl. With the sight system including a Marble Arms folding-ladder
rear sight, this dream gun retails at $1,299.99. Also new will be the SX4
semi-automatic 12-gauge shotgun which will surely come in many varieties, with
a beautiful camo that will be hard to spot. Price: $939.99
So, this
concludes our list, but with still some time left this year, it is to expect
that more news will come. But so far 2017 is promising to be a year of great new firearm products, amazing designs and technology, with many brands like Moriarti Armaments maturing their offer
and some new strong players trying to make an impression.
