CSG Ammo+ Division Companies Exhibited at SHOT Show 2025 in the United States.

From January 21 to 24, Las Vegas hosted SHOT Show 2025, the most important outdoor trade show in the U.S., where the world’s leading manufacturers of firearms, ammunition, and accessories for hunting and sport shooting traditionally exhibit. For the first time, the American Kinetic Group and its brands, which became part of the CSG Group in the fall of last year, presented themselves at the SHOT Show as a member of the group.

Alongside them, Fiocchi of America and Baschieri & Pellagri, which have been part of CSG since 2022, also showcased their products. Among the most distinguished guests who visited the CSG booths was Donald Trump Jr.

The CSG Ammo+ division, which encompasses all exhibiting companies, was presented at SHOT Show for the first time in the United States as one of the most significant producers of small-caliber ammunition in the Western world.

Just like last year, Donald Trump Jr., a strong advocate of sport shooting, visited the Fiocchi of America exhibition. His presence at the booth once again attracted great attention, as he engaged in lively discussions not only with CSG Group representatives but also with executives from other manufacturers exhibiting under the CSG Ammo+ umbrella.

„While last year, CSG was represented at SHOT Show only by Fiocchi, this year, thanks to the acquisition of Kinetic Group, we were recognized as a major player in the small-caliber ammunition industry. One of our most prominent guests was Donald Trump Jr. I emphasized to him that the small-caliber ammunition industry in the U.S. also requires interest and support from the new American administration.“

„Overall, it was clear that we are perceived as a serious and long-term investor in the U.S., which is the result of three years of work and relationship-building that began with the acquisition of Fiocchi Munizioni and Fiocchi of America,“ said David Štěpán, CSG Board Member and CEO of CSG Ammo+.

Kinetic Group, which includes globally renowned brands such as Federal Munition, Remington 1816, CCI & Speer Munition, and HEVI-Shot, introduced dozens of new products at SHOT Show 2025, including the groundbreaking 7mm Backcountry ammunition from Federal, featuring Peak Alloy technology.

This innovation boasts a new high-strength steel cartridge case capable of withstanding extreme chamber pressures, achieving magnum-level muzzle velocities even in short-barreled rifles. Another highlight was Federal’s Master Class shotgun shells, as well as CCI’s Suppressor Max 22 LR, Speer Ammunition’s Gold Dot personal defense rounds, HEVI-Shot’s HEVI-Hitter shotgun ammo, and finally, Remington 1816’s Core-Lokt ammunition for bolt-action rifles.

The companies Fiocchi, specializing in a wide range of small-caliber and shotgun ammunition, and Baschieri & Pellagri, a manufacturer of premium shotgun shells, presented their full portfolio of ammunition for sport shooting and hunting. Sport shooters showed great interest, particularly in Fiocchi’s competition-grade shotgun ammunition for trap and skeet shooting, as demonstrated by the high traffic at the Italian manufacturer’s booth.

„SHOT Show is a premier event for firearms, hunting, and sporting enthusiasts, as well as a platform for discovering new and innovative products. It helps preserve the traditions of sport shooting and hunting through the support of the Firearm Industry Trade Association (NSSF).“

„We are proud to have exhibited on such a large scale again this year, met with our friends and partners, and, among other things, introduced them to our groundbreaking Federal 7mm Backcountry ammunition,“ said Jason Nash, Vice President of Marketing at Kinetic Group.

The Shooting, Hunting, and Outdoor Trade Show (SHOT Show) is the largest and most comprehensive trade fair for professionals in shooting sports, hunting, and law enforcement. It is one of the world’s largest exhibitions of firearms, ammunition, knives, tactical gear, outdoor equipment, optics, and related products and services.

SHOT Show is not open to the general public but is dedicated to manufacturers, retailers, distributors, and professional buyers in the firearms, hunting, and outdoor industries, covering education, legislation, and regulations related to firearms and personal security.
