Best place for a shot show overview?
I know we used to have members here that would post updates, but that seems to not have been the case over the past couple of years. Where is the best place for a consolidated look at all the cool new stuff from shot show. Just articles and pictures, I don't wanna watch a youtube channel.

That's the problem. All the good reading reports are pretty much gone.

this year was my 2nd trip, first was a few years prior,

in that time, the Youtuber to attendee ratio doubled or tripled,
every other booth, and that may be a very slight exaggeration, had someone filming something to post online,

I am sure in the next month the print media, like NRA's magazine, and maybe some others, will have reports on what was scene at Shot, in print

Man you aren't kidding, there's a bunch of them. I like to read but I suppose I haven't picked up a gun magazine in a store in a years, and I'm not reading any of them online either. I would absolutely read our member written summaries (if there were any).

I suppose I have changed with the times and now have YouTube on my big screen TV and can navigate to what I want to see quickly. The good news is that the veterans are getting better with their microphone setups and they are getting to the point fast in the interviews. I think the best overall YouTube reports this year were from the Brownells and TFBTV channels.
