058_5SHOT (Shooting, Hunting, Outdoor Trade) Show 2012 took place in Las Vegas, Nevada at the Sands Convention Center last week.

With 630,000 net square feet and some 1,600 exhibitors it is the largest and most comprehensive trade show for all professionals involved with the shooting sports, hunting and law enforcement industries and the world's premier exposition of combined firearms, ammunition, cutlery, outdoor apparel, optics and related products and services. The SHOT Show attracts buyers from all 50 states and more than 100 countries.

To the casual observer not much has changed since the last show, apart from larger attendance (61,000 this year) and more celebrity appearances. The Columbia River Knife and Tool Booth became particularly crowded when Aerosmith Lead singer and American Idol judge, Stephen Tyler showed up to see CRKT's latest knives.
