Rifle Scopes Shot Show report?

[Glassaholic]

Don't we usually get a SHOT Show report on here? For anyone at SHOT please share what you're seeing, anything new? I know Vortex has a new Razor line which looks awesome until you get to the weight specs, I was staying away from the 2 pounders but Vortex managed to make some three pound beasts! I'm sure they'll appeal to someone.

I'm most excited about the new March 3-24x52mm. I own the 42mm version and can't wait for the better light gathering of the 52.

Anything new from Kahles? Anyone see the new S&B 5-20 shorty?

This is the first day in the convention center. You won't be seeing a lot on here until tonight when everyone gets back to their hotel room. Still might not see much as everyone will probably be a little tipsy when they get back to the hotel. My flight leaves in a couple hours. I'll try to get some stuff on here tomorrow.

Thank you JSF. I guess I jumped the gun a bit

I asked lowlight to make a shot show header for us. A hub everybody can up load links too. Then we can go to one place to see all the cool stuff from who ever is there covering what ever! It shouldn't be spread out all over the site under who knows what! One spot for all 2014 shot show links!!!

Thanks Bubb, I will keep a lookout for it. Is he putting it in Optics or somewhere else I wonder...

I know IOR has a booth at SHOT. I wonder if they have anything new?

Is Kahles at SHOT? Anything new from them by chance?

 

[RyeDaddy]

Nothing new from Kahles

 

[Glassaholic]

Bummer, I'd really like to see some 5x or 6x scopes from them...

I think Vortex seems to be the big optics company with the most new models. Already a thread on here about that.

 

[Glassaholic]

That certainly seems to be the case and their new 3-18 and 4.5-27 sound phenomenal. Unfortunately, I try and steer clear of heavy optics and these overweight beasts just don't fit my needs. So far, the most exciting new optic (to me) is the March 3-24x52. Phenomenal zoom range, extraordinary glass and light weight. I just wish March had more of an MSR type reticle, but owning their 3-24x42 they still have a fantastic reticle.

Have there been any sightings of the S&B 5-20 shorty?
