I was a registered participant in three or four different shooting disciplines at the time, offered to take their guns on the road, but never heard from them again.

As I recall they had two of them in their booth, possibly three. I handled them and examined them and was unimpressed.
It was nothing more than their attempt to capitalize on something far superior to their short sighted attempts.
