2008 NRA Convention Round-Up

Sqeaky has some photos of those there.

John Snow was badgered by Michael Bane long enough to make him wander over to the Bushmaster booth and see their prototype AR in .338 Lapua He says a version in .416 Rigby is also in the works. I suspect we’ll see a Remington branded version in a year or two.

Speaking of Remington, they announced their R-25 line recently. It’s an AR-10 done up in camo for the hunting crowd chambered in .308, .243, and 7mm-08.

Don’t room with SayUncle: he might make you blog from the bathroom.

Caleb has a 63 second teaser trailer up as well as some gun porn. The forend mounted Taser on a Taser shotgun seems a bit odd to me too. Seems like a rubber bayonet would be more fitting.

McCain gave a speech, and like David Codrea I wonder: And not one person “Booed”? Seriously? They guy calls for an end to private transfer of guns at an NRA convention and he gets a standing ovation? Ugh.

I hope I can make it there next year.
