 Hey there friends, thanks for checking in. As I reflect upon my 2020 Shacho experience, I have noticed that there are a lot of trends taking place and this has done the new. Every year there are these new trends in the gun world. I remember in the past it was all about circle coloring. Every gun, circle, red, green, sand, you name it. All these circle colors and I've noticed that that has cooled down a little bit but these other trends are on the uprise and I want to share those with you right now. Optic ready handguns. This is nothing new but what I am seeing is that every company is making their version of an optic ready handgun. This is a Sky CPX2. It comes with a Crimson Trace optic but every company is making it. It's a huge market right now. People like the idea of putting a dot on target and pulling the trigger and they feel accurate with that and many people have eye problems and they say it really helps. That is here to stay and it's only going to increase with time. Another thing that I've noticed is that there is a huge upsurge with revolvers. Now we saw what Colt did. This is a King Cobra target model. We saw what they did with the Python. Kimber came out with a K6S with a four inch barrel. Smith & Wesson is always strong. Torus came out with a couple new ones as well as many others. Revolvers. I don't know what's going on with that but a lot of companies are making their version of these very nice revolvers and they're reaching that market and I think that's something we're going to see a lot in 2020. Another thing that many people don't think much about unless you're actually into precision rifle shooting. It is a huge market and people spend an incredible amount of money building the perfect rifle to reach out 800 to 1200 yards and hit that target that is this big and even the optics are three to four thousand dollars that these people are paying in their training and they're getting involved in this competition that is huge. It's really big and it's growing like I've never imagined. So that area if you're into it you know what I'm talking about. If you're not keep your eyes open because you're going to see some of these beautiful high-end rifles that are being built in and they just love it. Another thing that I noticed are short firearms chambered in shotgun loads. Now Mossberg came out with the shockwave a couple years ago. Remington followed up with the TAC-14. Here's a semi-auto TAC-13 that I love. It's got the VersaMax system. It's a semi-auto. It's extremely reliable but so many other companies are doing it and that is attracted to people who want a home defense firearm but they don't want the big shotgun so they could have this. It's called the firearm. It's short but the shotgun loads are very effective. Speaking of that speaking of shotgun loads I am also seeing a real uprise with the 410 shot shell right here. Alright here's the Winchester PDX-1. I recently showed the effects of this on some ice with my Henry Lever action axon 410. The ammo is expensive but maybe it won't be as expensive if you know you're seeing Marlin, Remington, the Henry's and so many others making shotguns in 410. I don't know what's going on there. I know the turkey loads are very popular but it's light recoil and like I said before everybody in the family can use it because it is softer a softer shooting shotgun load that that people love. 5.7 by 28 millimeter is on its way back. Now people think that the Ruger 5.7 really caused this and they did to a degree but it never really went away. Now we know the 5.7 by FN was a big seller. They were like the only firearm but that's not true. CMMG had an upper in 5.7 by 28 millimeter. Diamondback's making their version now. A lot of people like the Ruger 5.7. I think this is super cool and the ammo once again it's a bit more expensive but we'll see what the future looks like as more of these companies are making it and more and more people are getting involved with the 5.7 by 28 millimeter. Multicaliber uppers are a big thing now. People like it. Here's my CMMG Banshee. This is a great upper height. I love it. It's chambered in 300 blackout but simply ordering an upper having it shipped to your house without an FFL transfer pop it on the lower and shooting different calibers like 10 millimeter 45 ACP 5.7 by 28 millimeter. You know they're all available and it's just so simple to do and you don't have to take four rifle bags to the range so a lot of people are getting involved with that companies are taking notice and they are creating uppers and it's been extremely or will be extremely convenient. Another thing that I'm noticing is heavy steel frame competition guns. Now here is my Q5 match by Walther. Walther came out with a steel frame one is a big hit. Now they have one with a four inch barrel and so many other companies are doing it. Now the competition market is still very big. Most of them are chambered in 9 millimeter you know with with high-cap mags you know 20 rounds or so but people like it. They like the the saw three called the 9 millimeter the heavy frame staying on target it just helps so much with their competition shooting. Another thing that I noticed is 22 long rifle pistols we saw what Glock did we saw what Ruger did here's the Ruger. All right LCP-2 light rack and Kel-Tac and Taurus and so many companies is it making a comeback? I never sure it left the market but we're seeing more manufacturers build guns in 22 long rifle and another thing that I noticed and I'm gonna show off one more gun here is laser engraving on 1911's here's my Magnum Research Desert Eagle 1911 this if you had a close-up on this you'd see that it is very beautifully engraved and a lot of people are getting into this a lot of companies are making laser engraved 1911's they take a beautiful gun already and they make it a one-of-a-kind the next year they come out with a different model than a different model than a different model than you get yours and it's sort of a one-of-a kind that suits your personality a show-off gun no doubt but you still get all the benefits of the 1911 so those are my thoughts guys the AK market is steady the semi-auto market is steady the the shotgun market is steady but these are some of the trends that I'm noticing and I think we'll see a lot more in 2020 if you like videos like this please subscribe and share I always appreciate thumbs up button thanks for watching and you guys be safe
