Exhibiters included Canik, Colt, Glock, Hogue, Keltec, Mossberg, Taurus, ATN Corp, Daniel Defense, Crossbreed Holsters, FN America, Hillsdale College, Lehigh Defense, Illinois State Rifle Association, Kimber America, North American Arms, Sig Sauer, Stag Arms, Springfield Armory, Velocity Triggers, VZ Grips, Walter Arms, XS Sight Systems, and so many more.

Companies use the NRA exhibit to highlight new products and continue to put proven, reliable, self-defense tools in front of NRA members attending the event. Attendees get to handle/examine the various products as they walk booth to booth.
