We are all back from the SHOT show, in one piece for the most part. I won't even try to compete with the stellar coverage provided to you by your own in house bloggers but I did see this cool little item from Advanced armament. They brought a prototype of what they are calling a blast shield. They wanted to gauge the public reaction to it, and based on what I saw the reaction was very positive,. The guys from AAC were over whelmed by the response and are now planning to put it into full production when they get back to their facility. Designed to attach securely to their 51T muzzle devices, this will direct the gases and noise forward, away from the shooter. Have a look, and let your dealers know if you want one!
