Blaser
Blaser had a spacious booth with several impressive pieces safely stored within glass cabinets. Several more accessible variants of the R8 were also available (not the latest Ultimate X, though) but here we see the most beautiful (i.e. expensive) pieces.
[ADIHEX 2021] A Look at the Fancy Guns on the Show Floor – Blaser K95 Custom #27 “Innervalue”, single-shot break-action in .308 Winchester; the unique feature is the glass window on the lockwork. Yours for AED 400,000 (about $109,000).

Mp3 International
Mp3 International is an Emirati importer of a wide range of firearms, including some valuable, unique, pieces. One of these at the show was the custom drilling (triple-barrel break-open) from Prinz.
[ADIHEX 2021] A Look at the Fancy Guns on the Show Floor – Custom Prinz drilling, the top barrel is a 20 gauge 3″ shotgun, the bottom ones are rifled, one chambered in .222 Remington and the other in .308 Winchester.
[ADIHEX 2021] A Look at the Fancy Guns on the Show Floor – Custom Prinz drilling, the gold inlaid engraving appears to represent the Qasr Al Watan, the Presidential Palace of the UAE in Abu Dhabi; likely a clue about the owner of the firearm.
Tactical RIFLES At International Golden Group
International Golden Group is an Emirati company specialized in military equipment, they brought at the show a variety of sniper rifles.
[ADIHEX 2021] A Look at the Fancy Guns on the Show Floor – A Victrix Armaments Tormento, a rather impressive Italian sniper rifle chambered in .408 CT; several Victrix models, both “tactical” and target-shooting focused, were available at the booth.
[ADIHEX 2021] A Look at the Fancy Guns on the Show Floor – A multi-caliber Orsis Sniper rifle from Russia, here in .308 Winchester.
Other Eye-catching pieces
[ADIHEX 2021] A Look at the Fancy Guns on the Show Floor – Semiautomatic shotguns, with some exceptions, aren’t usually seen as luxury hunting guns, these Benelli Super Black Eagle beg to differ.
[ADIHEX 2021] A Look at the Fancy Guns on the Show Floor – A STRASSER RS 14 celebrating the EXPO 2020 that started this month in Dubai, UAE; with Merkel, Liwa, Blaser, and a few STRASSER, it looks like straight-pull bolt-action are popular in the region.
