More than 800 industry exhibitors are slated to attend the event, located at the Kentucky Exposition Center in downtown Louisville. The event is also open to all NRA members.

Highlights from the 2015 NRA Annual Meetings and Exhibits in Nashville, Tenn., included nearly 79,000 people in attendance to see new products from Glock, Trijicon, Blackhawk and many other great manufacturers.

As with previous NRA Annual Meetings and Exhibits, G&A will offer detailed coverage of new product introductions as well as coverage of the event itself. This year, G&A editors will focus specifically on guns and gear that make your concealed carry experience better than ever.
