Here is what I was able to snap pics of during my time at SHOT. There was plenty else but this was the stuff of interest to me and my company

S&W M&P 10 - .308 AR, takes SR25 pattern mags. (also available in an "optics ready" version)

Glock's 30S - 30SF frame with a 36 slide. It's a nice way to carry a medium sized 10 round .45. I think it will do well for them.

I want the TangoDown T1 lens covers! Will they come in colors other than Black?

I believe the rep said Black was due in first, but others would be following. I don't remember what all the colors were but I believe FDE is next.

Didn't TD license that design from the guy on Kickstarter? Awesome to see them in production.

That's the first I had heard of TangoDown picking up the IO Cover. That's awesome news for him. Such a great design needed some solid backing. I had been following this on lightfighter (but obviously not recently).

BFG PlateMinimus looks slick as shit.

The BFG PlateMinus is GREAT, very very impressive.

Yup, it happened a while back.

Any new product announcement for handguns from Trijicon?

Jim D - Thanks for the great pics!

Black in the coming weeks, then FDE , OD green, and foliage grey. TangoDown will be handling all the branding, distribution, sales, and support. They'll do a much better job than I could ever hope to! I've attached a pic of me shaking down the latest production sample earlier today with John McPhee. You can also keep track on Facebook.

I would love to see that Mossberg bolt gun in 6.5 Grendel.

Jim D

01-20-13, 12:56

I'm liking what I see here.

Jim, do you know if that is a Houge overmolded stock on the Mossberg MVP? It looks like it is.

Not sure, I didn't get to spend much time in their booth.

I've always thought a 6.8SPC bolt gun would make a lot of sense for east coast deer hunting and such. People out here taking game past 150 yards are the exception to the rule, it seems.

Jim, if you can tell us without violating an NDA, did Smith and Wesson mention what their projected MSRP would be on the M&P 10 .308?

I have seen a camo'd one on their website for around $1700. I was hoping this one would be slightly lower.

Thanks for taking the time to post the photos and information.

I haven't seen MSRP, but I think street price will be around $1200 give or take a few bucks. They may go for more initially though while everyone is jacking up prices on AR rifles though.

Thank you, I appreciate it. I think $1200 would be very fair, and I would pick one up for that.

I have a 1-4X variable in a Larue mount, just begging to go on that rifle. And the fact that I can run PMags in it is very much appreciated.

Thanks again.

I don't see why you couldn't spend 4X what the gun is worth to make it shoot 6.5G.
