What we saw and admired at IWA Outdoor Classics

It's one of the largest shows in the world.

Trying guns at IWA Outdoor Classics

Over the last few days, we’ve been checking out new rifles, shotguns and shooting kit at IWA Outdoor Classics, a large trade exhibition in Bavaria, Germany that is a must for those involved in hunting and shooting sports.

With a record of over 1,500 hundred exhibitors, including names such as: Beretta, Browning, Benelli, Perazzi, Rigby, Krieghoff, Seeland, Swarovski … there was plenty to see.

We interviewed Rigby about their new Highland Stalker rifle and talked to the CEO of Blaser about the F16.

The show came up with a few surprises – an acrylic gun stock, a camp side-by-side (definitely haven’t seen one of those before) and triple barrelled shotguns.

Above are some of the products  that caught our eye which we’ve put on the ShootingUK Instagram. (If you’re an Instagrammer it’s definitely worth keeping an eye on.)

Shooting Times and Sporting Gun will be writing up the exhibition in full over the next week.
