This weekend, we're in Atlanta to check out the NRA Annual Meetings & Exhibits. The National Rifle Association has been holding this show each year for 146 years, and the 2017 event will pack the Georgia World Congress Center with 80,000 attendees and more than 800 exhibiting companies. The three-day show includes more than 10 acres of displays featuring firearms and shooting and hunting accessories, so we're going to be walking the show floor each day to take it all in.
The NRA says every major firearm manufacturer in the U.S. will be represented at the Annual Meeting, but it doesn't stop there. The show also includes knives, tools, shooting accessories, hunting gear, ATVs, and even wildlife artwork. There's even a gun collector area with priceless collections of firearms on display.
Aside from browsing the booths on the show floor, NRA Annual Meeting attendees can experience seminars, workshops, and celebrity meet-and-greets. The 2017 NRAAM also made national headlines recently when President Donald Trump announced that he will be speaking at the NRA-ILA Leadership Forum. Trump’s appearance at the show will mark the first time a sitting president has appeared at the event since Ronald Reagan.
If you weren't able to make it to Atlanta for this year's show, don't worry. We'll be documenting the coolest guns and gear we see, and sharing pictures of them right here each day. The gallery below will be updated automatically with all the photos and video clips we capture. Be sure to follow @recoiloffgridmagazine and #NRA2017 on Instagram if you like what you see.
Taran Butler of Taran Tactical spoke in the Brownells booth about his experience teaching the Kardashians about guns. #NRAAM2019 Sleeping pads of every flavor from Klymit. #NRAAM2019 Fans of the John Wick series will appreciate “The Vault III” from @bigdaddyunlimited. It contains four guns patterned after those used in John Wick Chapter 3 — a Benelli, SIG MPX, and Glock 34 decked out by @tarantactical, and an STI 2011 Combat Master. There’s also three gold-plated coins and a “used” pencil. Only 10 vaults are available, MSRP is $17,999.99. #NRAAM2019 The limited-edition @maxpedition Prepared Citizen Classic series is a twist on the concept of a basic book bag, with tough 1000-denier nylon fabric, loop-lined interior for modular pouches or a holster, and the capacity to accept an armor panel. MSRP is $60, limited to 1,500 units. #NRAAM2019 Our compadres at @recoilmagazine gave their NRAAM 2019 “Best Accessory” award to the new Contingency Duffle from @vertx_official. It’s available in 45L or 85L capacity, with organized storage compartments for weapons, ammo, clothes, and survival gear. #NRAAM2019 The new @nightsticklighting TCM-550XLS weapon light is intended as a direct competitor to the Streamlight TLR-7, and fits holsters made for that light. It features 550 lumens, momentary/constant/strobe modes, and a switch design that immediately reminded us of the SureFire XC1. #NRAAM2019 We just published an article on OFFGRIDweb.com with more details on the new @marlinfirearms_official Dark series. Check it out if you’d like to learn more about these new lever guns. #NRAAM2019 The SenSight is a new digital sight with an Android-based touchscreen interface and rail-mounted remote controls, onboard video recording, and a secondary camera for nighttime use with an IR Illuminator. MSRP will be under $1,200. #NRAAM2019 There’s no shortage of short-barrel rifles and compact truck guns at NRAAM.
