## Resource

It's time for the gang's annual SHOT Show recap for 2026. The lads dive into SHOT burnout, "the guy who got stabbed", 'Raregreed' sending out C&Ds, the downfall of gunslop companies and influencers in a post-COVID Trump-slump world, and the frequent lack of transparency with country of manufacture in the industry. They also get into the positive side of things, like seeing our favorite industry pals, afterparty shenanigans, and shouting out the people and small businesses who endeavor to put out interesting or improved concepts - KommandoStore's Eighty-Four gear, Murdoch & Co's SA80, ZEV FDP, and more.
