It’s that time of year again. In the chamber this week, we’ll have attendees at both the SHOT show and Outdoor Retailer Winter Market scouring the floor for the latest and greatest gear on the planet, as well as testing the newest toys at the SHOT Media Range Day and the Outdoor Retailer All Mountain Demo. Throughout the next few weeks we’ll be pushing out content from both trade shows and you’ll have the opportunity to see some of the newest gear, products yet to hit the shelves, and interviews with industry representatives.
