SHOT Show has been one helluva of a Show. It’s 13.9 miles of aisles that are chock full of guns. Every year, the event pulls tens of thousands of people to ogle the latest and greatest from all their favorite gun companies. This year, we saw a few interesting themes, and one was a ton of new rifles. When I say new rifles, I don’t just mean another new AR-15 or new AK-47. I mean a ton of new rifles, rifles we haven’t really seen before. Let’s dig into the best new rifles of SHOT 2024.
The Show Low Blackjack
The Show Low Blackjack is a 9mm pistol caliber carbine that looks a bit like an AK. It’s certainly AK-inspired, but it strays pretty far from the AK design. The Show Low Blackjack comes in various sizes, but for this entry, we’ll be counting the rifle version. This PCC was produced with competition shooting in mind. The Show Low Blackjack rifle has a 16-inch barrel that’s threaded and ready for your favorite muzzle device. It can be used with standard AK stocks and grips, but that’s where the similarity stops.
