Wednesday, February 8th, the day before the formal opening of the SHOT Show, was a day devoted to "Media Day" shoots. In the morning, Jeff was a guest of Browning, Winchester, Springfield Armory & Bushnell, while the afternoon saw events with Smith & Wesson, Walther & Crimson Trace. These shoots were organized to allow selected gun writers to have "hands-on" experience with the various manufacturers' new products for 2006.
