Thanks, Ben.
Listen, I hope I run into that dude at SHOT Show.
I'm going to be like, calm down, check your email.
And maybe if I see him down the hallway, I'm going to take a bottle of water and I'm going to wet my hair and then maybe he'll talk to me.
I'm sure during these shows now, there's going to be some blending of Zert stuff and KDG stuff, especially when I talk about products.
Yesterday, I had to run down to the office, and we're looking at doing this move and consolidating the machine shop where the office is and where the warehouse is into one building, and that's where the Zert stuff is going to go.
And in that, I got to see a prototype of what we're launching โ
this year and i gotta tell you because right off the bat i challenged my boss i was like okay man like we've got cool stuff for rifles and rifle optics yeah we've got nothing for the pistol shooter and you know i firmly believe that not everybody that owns a pistol owns a rifle but i pretty much believe that everybody that owns a rifle owns at least one pistol
Short of FUDs who just need a rifle for hunting, and that's that.
So if that's you, sorry.
But go out and get a pistol.
And so I challenged him.
I was like, let's get into the pistol market.
And I was thinking A, and he went to Z. And I was like, okay, we'll see.
And then he showed it to me yesterday in a 3D printed prototype.
And I was just like, oh, okay.
I like that.
So I'm super excited when it comes out.
And I can't wait to tease it.
I mean, we've already designed the rollout plan on how we're going to go to market and how we're going to tease it.
