Good deal - this is the SHOT Show coverage I look for every year since my employer stopped sending me back in '05. Next year, I'll see for myself, but your pictures are the end-all, be-all of What-We-Want-To-See SHOT Show goodies.
Thanks!
Awesome!! Year after year I am waiting impatiently for your SS report!
SMGLee, thank you very much for all the SHOT Show 2009 pics and all the work you put into it.

Desert Tactical brought their slightly revised sniper platform from last year, recently featured in a well known gun magazine, Desert Tactical got some serious interest at SHOT this year.

Notice the sniper system is very handy and compact compare to a standard rifle configuration.

The rear plate is now redesigned to be removeable via a locking tab. much easier from the original design.

thread protector for the short barrel gun,

The muzzle brake has the same thread so you can use either a suppressor or the OEM muzzle brake on it. possible future developement is a Desert Tactical's suppressor to complete thir package.

Switch pad for PEQ15

Big and thick switch but supposedly TangoDown has a vertical conversion kit to retrofit this blocky pad onto their Insight switch pocket VFG.

Colt brought out the SCW---Sub-Compact Weapon
http://photos.imageevent.com/smglee/...e/DSCN1747.JPG
This little puppy features an revised DI gas layout, a proprietary gas regulator sleeve that fits into the front sight, which you can pull the sleeve/gas tube out like a piston rod. it is supposed to helplessen gas port erosion over the life of the gun while it can increasing weapon reliability and durability.
http://photos.imageevent.com/smglee/...e/DSCN1753.JPG
This can also be fitted with the Colt's new piston system, completely revised system from the 1020/M5, Colt learn the falut with those system and redesign the new CPS. this new system features an articulating link piston rod, it is a very interesting concept....from the words of Colt engineers, this system is bullet proof....
