The 2010 SHOT show is over and it looks to have been a great success. Lots of new products released and it the attendance numbers are astronomical. I'm wondering if the rise in attendance is due to the current political climate or if it was just the location.
The show’s return to Las Vegas sparked a rise in attendance over the previous year, with buyers packing exhibit booths to review products and then placing orders on the latest shooting, hunting and outdoor gear.
Overall attendance was 58,444, only several hundred shy of the show’s all-time record set at the 2008 Las Vegas Show and more than 11,000 above last year’s show in Orlando. The show attracted an all-time high of 31,280 buyers, and the 1,804 media professionals attending established a new record.
