The major themes of this year were primarily dedicated to the world of weapons, where the big brands, led by the Beretta group, play the lion's share, but at the same time it is an opportunity for small companies and artisans to give visibility international to their productions, often unique pieces and real jewels.
The optics were represented by the main brands, Swarovski, Zeiss, Steiner, Burris, Meopta, Nikon and many others, a world in constant evolution, where electronics are increasingly supporting optical quality, even and prohibited in our country, some exhibitors offered night vision goggles with infrared or thermal technology.
Accessories and clothing are always at the center of attention, probably in these sectors the novelties are the most relevant, both as regards the materials, increasingly modern and performing, and for the style and trends of "hunting fashion".
