The desert is evidently where it’s at. At least it is in the spring of the year and you are in the Phoenix area. For real, there’s over two million people that live in the Phoenix/Tucson area. There must be some sort of draw to get so many people to huddle together in the middle of the desert (insert leaving California joke here).
While I may not understand the subtleties and draw of desert southwest living, I do understand the draw of the outdoors, wherever you happen to hang your hat. An event like this is a wonderful opportunity for a manufacturer or retailer to talk to their customers. In an age where so much of our interactions are so distant and impersonal, a face-to-face event like this is a breath of fresh air and coincidentally, in the fresh air. What more can you ask for?
To further encourage us to head out west for this event is the fact that Arizona has been very welcoming airgun hunting for its citizens. I’m not even going to bother summarizing how many airgun hunting opportunities there are in Arizona. You can learn more about that topic here on the Airgun Sporting Association website. At the top of the page you will find a map of the US. Just click on Arizona and scroll down.
With this said, JB and Mark from Umarex will be joining our good friends George and Eydin with Gnat Warfare will be working the crowds at the Ben Avery Shooting Facility in Phoenix. We will be bringing a diverse selection of air products including the AirJavelin FishR, the Zelos, the Emerge, and a whole bunch of airsoft gear to use with Gnat Warfare’s Hashtag targets.
Between Umarex, Canyon Coolers, Sig Sauer, Kimber and the scores of other exhibitors coming out to the event, any attendees coming to this event will have a great time. So if you are anywhere near southern Arizona, get thee hence to the Ben Avery Shooting Sports Facility in Phoenix for the March 23rd and 24th weekend!
