Many of the writers could not have been more pleased with the event.  Says Mark Keefe,
Editor of NRA’s publication American Rifleman
, “Media Day gives the firearms press an
opportunity to handle the majority of the new firearm or optical designs that they will be
writing about in the coming year.  It's one thing to look at a gun or a scope in a booth, but
another entirely to try it out at the range in its intended role.  Media Day is also one of the
best networking opportunities available for both the industry marketing professionals and
journalists alike. I haven't missed one yet, and I don't intend to start now.”

I just want to take a minute and tell you thanks from the bottom of my heart for all the hard
work you did to make Media Day at the Range such a great success. I've been on both side of
these kinds of events and I understand what effort goes into making sure everything runs
smoothly and everyone is "happy" and productive. Alpen Optics had the opportunity to
share our latest products in a wonderful relaxed atmosphere with some of our favorite outdoor
media friends. So here's a big pat on your backs for great job well done! Three cheers for your
awesome volunteers too!

VP of  Marketing at Alpen Optics

Adds Nick Sisley, freelance journalist for many of the top shotgun publications, “One
aspect of Media Day that I really like is that there tends to be a little more time to visit for a
few minutes with old friends.  More importantly, Media Day is the chance to see so many
new products under one figurative roof - and our readers (editors, too) are always hungry for
information on the new products.  Finally, Media Day is also perfect for garnering story ideas
beyond new products. Personally, I came up with at least three of these types of article ideas -
all within a relatively short time at Media Day.

Jason Nash, ATK’s Communications and Events Manager said “Media Day at the Range
provides manufacturers like ATK the opportunity to have hands-on interaction with the top
writers in the hunting and shooting industry. There’s no better way to showcase new products
than to actually use them live and in person. This year’s event was well organized, very well
attended and overall a great success. We look forward to next year.”

"Media Day is always a most successful prequel to the SHOT Show for ZEISS. There is
simply no substitute in providing our media friends a "hands-on" experience with our product.
It is a wonderful networking event for us not only for developing new and continuing
relationships with writers and publishers but it also allows us to work closely with other
manufacturers and other industry professionals. Not the least of all, the sponsors always
provide a first class location for the event and tremendous logistical support," added

Moncrief, Zeiss Training Manger
