2020 Issue
Launch A New Decade With The Latest GEAR!
Robust product introductions will fuel interest in the consumer market, and industry manufacturers have produced scores of options for dealers to carry in-store in 2020.
This third (and final) installment of the 2020 New Product Showcase features many SKUs released in early January — some even made their debut at the SHOT Show. Combined with the Dec. 2019 and Jan. 2020 issues, this year’s New Product Showcase highlighted hundreds of products from 200 brands. A hearty SI salute to those companies featured in over 50 pages of new products across these three issues.
Dealers, what products do you plan on stocking this year? Let the SI team know: comments@shootingindustry.com.
(In April, SI will take a look at how dealers make their inventory selections at SHOT and other events — stay tuned.)
