We will be at SHOT, doing our daily reviews every evening starting on the 18th with stuff we see at the media shoots. Have five different shoots to attend that day, and two parties on the night of the 18th. After that, the other days will not be as hectic.

That's a good one. But, why add the Redfield line to their existing, and, to me, seemingly crowded, product line?
