The 2012 SHOT Show opens today in Las Vegas, Nevada

Las Vegas, Nevada - Welcome to SHOT Show.

The world's largest gathering of shooting, hunting and outdoor professionals right here at the Sands Expo and Convention Center in Las Vegas, Nevada. Although there was a taste of the magic during Media Day, there's nothing like being here for the real thing.

Wall to wall, floor to floor — nothing but firearms and outdoor accessories as far as the eye can see.

First thing on the agenda was finding the NRA booth (from which I'm now writing.) Next up is a quick survey of the surrounding area before heading over to Beretta for a quick sit-down with Matteo. From there — I'm just going to let the current take me.
