Every January, SHOT Show kicks off a new year for the firearm industry, with new models unveiled and new sales orders signed. The entire event literally kicks off with a bang, in the case of the event's Industry Day at the Range held on the Monday before the show and select events like the SIG Sauer Range Day held the Sunday before Industry Day. However, as American Rifleman staffers scour range days and the show floor, there's a tremendous amount of video and print coverage that makes it up onto our website and YouTube channel.

Now that we're a month out from the end of SHOT Show 2020, it's clear that certain products resonate with our readers more than others. Out of the many articles and videos we publish, a few shine above the rest. Here are the most popular stories we saw at the show and the roundups that you guys loved. If you missed any, check them out below:

Roundups

There are literally thousands of new guns at SHOT Show, and it's impossible to see all of them. However, there are many that belong to the same category, so what better way to cover new guns and gear than by batching them together? We saw many cool guns at range days and on the show floor, so if one of these categories strikes your fancy, check out more at the links below:

Videos

One of the biggest priorities for American Rifleman editors at SHOT Show is to highlight new products at the range and on the show floor by walking through the details, and what better way to do that than actually showing the products themselves? Out of the many videos created at SHOT Show this year, five stood out among the rest. Here were the top links that resonated with our YouTube viewers:
