Companies who break the Show rules can be banned from future shows . As Shot has a wait list for exhibiting , they dont care who they boot out .
IWA is the same , they booted out one of their long time exhibitors a couple of years back for bending a rule .
You stand a better chance of getting to Shot if can convince them you work for a shooting publication or an online shooting site.
When did you go to IWA?

It was the live in the middle of my quote about a “level playing field”…
I just struggled to see what the animosity towards Iain and whatever relationship he has with Lantac, was.
I have no animosity towards Iain whatsoever . If he is the unofficial mouthpiece for Lantac , good for him , but maybe he could put a little comment at the end of his posts that he does favours for Lantac from time to time . It has been commented on before I believe .
As for Lantac guns , I have handled one but not fired it , it felt ok . I have also handled another well known make , but not fired it , this rifle just seemed to be a total fit so its on my short list .
But then I was able to fire another well known make , after about 10 shots I wished I had not started . The owner thought he had put about 800 rounds through it , just about everything on it rattled or seemed loose so maybe he meant 8000 rounds . But that wont put me off buying a new one from the maker .
I wish I still had my M14 !
