This year\u2019s show set new benchmarks for industry engagement with an expanded show floor, a record-high number of exhibitors and an array of new features and networking opportunities. NSSF reports the 2024 SHOT Show was the largest to date.<\/p>\n<p>More than 55,400 industry professionals packed the 13.9 miles of aisles over four days at The Venetian Expo and Caesars Forum, eager to view new, innovative products used for target shooting, hunting, outdoor recreation and law enforcement.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe energy on the SHOT Show floor this year was off the charts,\u201d says Chris Dolnack, NSSF Senior Vice President and Chief Customer Officer. \u201cThe feedback we\u2019ve received from our exhibitors and attendees has been amazing, and we can\u2019t thank them all enough for helping us make the show what it is: the greatest trade show in the world.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>This was the largest SHOT Show ever, marking the third year of expanded exhibit space at Caesars Forum, in addition to The Venetian Expo. More than 2,600 companies displayed products and services in booths covering more than 821,000 net square feet and attracting attendees from 117 countries and all 50 states.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhen we\u2019re here, we\u2019re able to network with our customers, we\u2019re able to see all of our dealers. There really is no better place for us to be during this time,\u201d said Shaundi Campbell of Browning.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_544722\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-544722\" style=\"width: 696px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-large wp-image-544722\" alt=\"\" width=\"696\" height=\"696\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn0.thetruthaboutguns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/SHOT-Show-Floor-700x700.jpg 700w, https:\/\/www.thetruthaboutguns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/SHOT-Show-Floor-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.thetruthaboutguns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/SHOT-Show-Floor-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.thetruthaboutguns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/SHOT-Show-Floor-768x767.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.thetruthaboutguns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/SHOT-Show-Floor-696x695.jpg 696w, https:\/\/www.thetruthaboutguns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/SHOT-Show-Floor-1068x1067.jpg 1068w, https:\/\/www.thetruthaboutguns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/SHOT-Show-Floor-421x420.jpg 421w, https:\/\/www.thetruthaboutguns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/SHOT-Show-Floor-560x559.jpg 560w, https:\/\/www.thetruthaboutguns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/SHOT-Show-Floor.jpg 1508w\" data-lazy-sizes=\"(max-width: 696px) 100vw, 696px\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn0.thetruthaboutguns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/SHOT-Show-Floor-700x700.jpg\"\/><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-large wp-image-544722\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn0.thetruthaboutguns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/SHOT-Show-Floor-700x700.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"696\" height=\"696\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn0.thetruthaboutguns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/SHOT-Show-Floor-700x700.jpg 700w, https:\/\/www.thetruthaboutguns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/SHOT-Show-Floor-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.thetruthaboutguns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/SHOT-Show-Floor-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.thetruthaboutguns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/SHOT-Show-Floor-768x767.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.thetruthaboutguns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/SHOT-Show-Floor-696x695.jpg 696w, https:\/\/www.thetruthaboutguns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/SHOT-Show-Floor-1068x1067.jpg 1068w, https:\/\/www.thetruthaboutguns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/SHOT-Show-Floor-421x420.jpg 421w, https:\/\/www.thetruthaboutguns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/SHOT-Show-Floor-560x559.jpg 560w, https:\/\/www.thetruthaboutguns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/SHOT-Show-Floor.jpg 1508w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 696px) 100vw, 696px\"\/><\/noscript><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-544722\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Doug Howlett Photo<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h4>Government Officials and the Outdoor Industry<\/h4>\n<p>The 2024 SHOT Show facilitated dialogue and collaboration between government officials and outdoor industry professionals at both the State Attorneys General Forum and 3rd Annual Governors\u2019 Forum. The first-ever Attorneys General Forum was a resounding success.<\/p>\n<p>One of the most well-attended special events, the 3rd annual Governors\u2019 Forum was standing-room only, where seven governors discussed the importance of firearm businesses to their economies and their efforts to attract firearm- and ammunition-related companies to relocate to their state. Across America, the $80.7 billion firearm industry supports more than 393,000 jobs.<\/p>\n<h4>All-new Archery Pavilion<\/h4>\n<p>This year, the SHOT Show introduced the all-new Archery Business Pavilion, featuring exhibits from leading manufacturers and suppliers in the archery industry. The new area of the show provided a focused environment for archery retailers and industry professionals to explore the latest trends, products, and business opportunities in the archery sector.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis is our first year here; the floor traffic has been great,\u201d said Eric Griggs, owner and president of GAS Bowstrings. \u201cIt\u2019s been great to see a lot of crossover folks who are thinking about adding an archery department or already have one. Everybody comes to SHOT, so having an archery-specific section provides a level of convenience. I imagine this section will really take off in years to come.\u201d<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_544723\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-544723\" style=\"width: 639px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-544723\" alt=\"SHOT Show Range Day Nevada\" width=\"639\" height=\"652\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn0.thetruthaboutguns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/range-day.png 639w, https:\/\/www.thetruthaboutguns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/range-day-294x300.png 294w, https:\/\/www.thetruthaboutguns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/range-day-150x153.png 150w, https:\/\/www.thetruthaboutguns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/range-day-300x306.png 300w, https:\/\/www.thetruthaboutguns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/range-day-412x420.png 412w, https:\/\/www.thetruthaboutguns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/range-day-356x364.png 356w, https:\/\/www.thetruthaboutguns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/range-day-560x571.png 560w\" data-lazy-sizes=\"(max-width: 639px) 100vw, 639px\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn0.thetruthaboutguns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/range-day.png\"\/><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-544723\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn0.thetruthaboutguns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/range-day.png\" alt=\"SHOT Show Range Day Nevada\" width=\"639\" height=\"652\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn0.thetruthaboutguns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/range-day.png 639w, https:\/\/www.thetruthaboutguns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/range-day-294x300.png 294w, https:\/\/www.thetruthaboutguns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/range-day-150x153.png 150w, https:\/\/www.thetruthaboutguns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/range-day-300x306.png 300w, https:\/\/www.thetruthaboutguns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/range-day-412x420.png 412w, https:\/\/www.thetruthaboutguns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/range-day-356x364.png 356w, https:\/\/www.thetruthaboutguns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/range-day-560x571.png 560w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 639px) 100vw, 639px\"\/><\/noscript><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-544723\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Doug Howlett Photo<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h4>Media Attends Industry Day at the Range<\/h4>\n<p>Also, Industry Day at the Range, held the day before SHOT Show began gives invited media members and buyers an exclusive opportunity to preview and test the latest guns, gear and gadgets before anyone else in the industry.
