This year’s shoot will be held Friday January 23 from 4:30pm until 9pm at Pro-Gun Vegas. The intention of this shoot is to allow smaller manufacturers in the firearms and tactical space to meet, network, and possibly collaborate over the next year through stronger industry connections. This event was graciously sponsored by a number of companies, and through the work of a small number of volunteers should be larger than last year.
While this event is geared towards smaller manufacturers, the down-stream side of this is buyers, and media who can help promote products from the sponsoring manufacturers. Unlike Media Day, or some of the other shooting events, this is a night event, for the companies that manufacture aiming lasers, night vision, and all flavors of night-time illumination products are strongly encouraged to attend. Night vision device manufacturers, while not a small enterprise, are also invited to attend.
Sponsorships
The sponsors donated money to help pay for the range, there will be a maximum of eight sponsors. Each sponsor will be provided with a table at the range to organize any live fire demonstrations. Any sponsors that do not wish to have live fire available to them may have their table placed in the Media Area.
Donors
Donors provided their time, effort and product to make this happen. Special thanks to Nate from CBRNArt who donated his talents to make the awesome logo.
Media and Media Area
The Media Area is away from the noise of the firing line, Sponsors and Donors may, at their discretion make their products available for photography. There will be several media groups on site taking pictures and recording video for promotional purposes.
Due to the nature of the firearms business, and the habits of some news organizations, non-firearm media is invited not to attend and may be asked to leave at the discretion of the Organizers, Sponsors, Donors, and Staff.
Shooting
This is a shooting event, all who attend are encouraged to shoot. Prohibited persons and those under the influence of drugs or alcohol are not allowed into the range complex. (This is covered in the Waiver)
