Title: Shot Show 2013
Post by: MRC on January 17, 2013, 10:23:30 AM

Maybe it is just me, but this is the most uneventful Shot Show in recent memory.  What do the rest of you think?

I did find this interesting even though I would not want one.  Heizer who was to make the Double Tap until it had a falling out with the inventor has a pistol of there own.  Scroll down in this link.

I agree with you Bob.  I had two of my wish list items end up not appearing at SHOT. 

I put this up on Jan 4th about the other double tap.  http://mousegunaddict.blogspot.com/2013/01/dont-mess-with-ray.html (http://mousegunaddict.blogspot.com/2013/01/dont-mess-with-ray.html)  Ray is well aware of what Heizer is up to since the split and it looks like he's getting paid from both sides if the lawsuit sticks.  Single shot?  Seriously?  I think Ray has the better product of the two.   ;)

Agreed -- so far.

For instance, that 10" DE for hunters. I own a DE-50, value it highly, and am a great admirer of the DE line of pistols. However, that 10" version is, to my eyes, as ugly as homemade sin. That is not to say, of course, that I would want to be down range in its sights. Perhaps it just proves the old adage that beauty is in the eyes of the beholder.
