2012 SHOT Show Wrap-Up

We’ve just got our heads above water from attending our most successful SHOT Show ever! We had the opportunity to see many old friends, and make a few new ones! We would like to especially thank members of the media and press that visited our shooting point at Media Day at the Range and our booth. We really appreciate your interest in our products! We appreciated all the nice folks who took the time to visit with us at the Show.

For those of you that did not get the opportunity to attend the SHOT Show, or might like to check out some of the APO media coverage here’s a consolidated media list. Pictures and individual video’s from the 2012 SHOT Show can be found on our homepage in the image and video galleries. Please enjoy the 2012 SHOT Show Wrap-Up Video!

We’ve been pretty busy around the shop since last month’s SHOT Show and thought we would show you what we’ve been up to!

Rube, one of our technicians, is laser engraving APO M107 Barrett 50BMG Electro-Optic mounts.

He then inspects, packages and ships several hundred to customers.

Here's Todd, one of our Engineering Technicians, work on a new product development initiative on the Haas TL-1 CNC.
