![]() ![]() The Browning Maxus Sporting Carbon Fibre, with black synthetic stock to complete the lookįabarm (now part of Caesar Guerini) had some new versions of their affordable Elos models in Trap configuration. It is another new clay model, to be offered in Sporting and Trap versions, which we hope to handle before too long. The new Breda Zenith O/U has some extra features to make it adaptable. Breda is part of the same stable as Marocchi, hence there is cross-fertilisation of ideas. ![]() This represents what must be the pinnacle of adjustability and therefore suited to a cross discipline approach I look forward to getting some hands-on experience with the Pro Master!Įlsewhere there was a not-quite-new kid on the block: the name is one we will recognise, most recently for semi-autos. This can help enormously to adjust the gun’s point of impact, rather more than an adjustable comb alone can achieve. This has all the adjustable features of the XS Pro we reviewed recently, and also features an adjustable top rib. The Maxus range of semi-autos now has a new model, the Sporting Carbon Graphite, which has a carbon effect finish to the barrel as well as the synthetic stock.īrowning has been developing its range of B525 Pro clay guns and it revealed the new Pro Master at IWA. ![]() Krieghoff’s Abraham Lincoln gun has masterful engraving that turned heads throughout the showīetter still, it is not in short supply, as walnut is gradually becoming, so we shall see more laminate stocks in future for sure. With new companies forming around the world the trends were interesting to see. Not everyone had a totally new product of course, but there are always new guns, cartridges and hearing protectors, and much else besides. ![]() My remit this visit was to scout out products relevant to clay shooting – and there was plenty to see. IWA has managed to grow by attracting manufacturers of relevant products without filling extra halls with peripheral goods of marginal relevance you can walk through any of its halls and find them filled with stands that will attract your attention. Some UK fairs have fallen foul of this in attempts to maintain a viable size, but it can be a backward step when there are too many exhibitors that could be seen more cheaply elsewhere. While all exhibitions and fairs seek growth, some do so by extending their remit beyond the key areas visitors primarily come for. A major plus point of the show is its clear focus on its purpose and the market it serves. I attended my first IWA in 1984 and I can only be impressed by the way it has grown since.
