GUNS OF THE YEAR???????
« on: November 11, 2012, 07:03:19 PM »
Hey all!

Marshal and I are in the process of selecting the SHOOTING GALLERY Guns of he Year for 2012, and we'd like your input. SG will pick and reward the Handgun, Rifle, Shotgun & AR Platform Gun of the Year at the 2013 SHOT Show.

Your thoughts?

Think hard, because you might win a ride to SHOT!

Yep, that's about right...apart from that cute little iHeizer in white and the takedown 10/22 I haven't see anything new either...
Best Wishes, Mike.

Hey MB, I know they're not a sponsor, but the SA XDs is a really nifty little 45. It's not a new concept, but I think it's a mini 45 that actually works and is a manageable shooter.

Take what Bic said and put it with what BAC said and that'd be what I'd say.   ;D

Ruger takedown 10/22
Mossberg Flex
Any .30 cal AR

"I expect perdition, I always have. I keep this building at my back, and several guns handy, in case perdition arrives in a form that's susceptible to bullets. I expect it will come in the disease form, though. I'm susceptible to diseases, and you can't shoot a damned disease." ~ Judge Roy Bean, Streets of Laredo

For the Patriots of this country, the Constitution is second only to the Bible for most. For those who love this country, but do not share my personal beliefs, it is their Bible. To them nothing comes before the Constitution of these United States of America. For this we are all labeled potential terrorists. ~ Dean Garrison

I really think the Mossberg Flex deserves shotgun of the year.  While I love my 870s and am looking at getting a third.  It'd be handier to have a Flex that I could take between a Turkey and SD shotgun in a mater of seconds.
