The motion sensor alarm is 95 decibels loud while the trigger block removal alarm is a louder 120 decibels. Available accessories include a remote control to arm or disarm the device from a distance and a stealth camera that starts recording as soon as the first alarm sounds.

For the past few years, I’ve heard many people in the firearms community say, “Women are the fastest-growing demographic in this industry. We need to find ways to tailor our brand to them.” This just may be the year retailers who have been working on female-friendly shooting gear finally listened to the ladies’ suggestions. Sure, not all of the products here are female specific, but while walking the aisles of 2017 SHOT Show, I found these items to be things I would purchase for myself.
