#SHOT2022

New for this year from Big Horn Armory is the Model 89 Tactical.  This .500 S&W chambered lever gun will feature a muzzle brake, scout scope mount, rear peep and front iron sights, and an aluminum Mlok fore-end section for mounting accessories.  The main fore-end and buttstock will be made out of a dark grey laminate, as opposed to the polymer stock that was on the display model available at the range.  The Muzzle brake may also change slightly in design once this new rifle comes to market.

Today at SHOT 2022’s Industry Day at the Range, Umarex unveiled their brand new Primal 20. Airguns have been carving themselves a niche in the hunting market and Umarex is one of the big names in that area. Their newest offering is a 20-gauge slug firing airgun.

Today at Industry Day at the Range for SHOT 2022, Palmetto State Armory showed off their PSAK-105, a 5.45 AK variant. I got a chance to see and shoot it, and I have to say that I was very impressed. The staff at the booth also teased a 5.56 AK, but unfortunately did not have one at the booth itself today.

Today at NSSF’s Industry Day at the Range, I got a chance to take a few shots with Savage’s new 110 PCS bolt action pistol. Savage is no stranger to having a bolt handle and ejection port on opposite sides, as some of their varmint and target rifles in the past have had ejection ports on the left and bolts on the right. The opposite configuration on this pistol makes for a quick handling compact firearm, with no need to take your firing hand off the grip to work the action. Using the Vortex Crossfire II scout scope, I was easily clanging targets downrange with this fun little gun.
