American Animal Heads to SHOT Show ’25: Showcasing the Game-Changing Lights Out Rail

We’re Heading to SHOT Show ’25

American Animal is thrilled to announce our participation in SHOT Show ’25, the industry’s premier event for shooting sports, hunting, law enforcement, and armed forces. This year, we’re bringing something extraordinary: our revolutionary Lights Out Rail. If you’re attending SHOT Show in Las Vegas on January 19, visit our booth to experience American-made innovation at its finest.

The SHOT Show is more than a trade event. It’s where the best minds in the industry connect, share ideas, and celebrate innovation. For us, it’s the perfect platform to showcase how we’re redefining gear for professionals and enthusiasts alike.

Introducing the Lights Out Rail

At SHOT Show ’25, we’re debuting the Lights Out Rail, a premium rail system designed for the most demanding professionals. Built for Navy SEALs, Force Recon, SWAT teams, and the high-end civilian market, the Lights Out Rail combines groundbreaking functionality with sleek aesthetics.

Here’s why it stands out:

• SLIC System (Patent Pending): Say goodbye to zip-ties, tape, or ranger bands. The Slide Lock Integrated Channel (SLIC) allows wires and cables to be securely and discreetly routed through integrated channels at 2, 4, 7, and 10 o’clock positions. This system improves both functionality and the rifle’s appearance.
• Versatility in Size and Color: Available in five sizes (7.5″, 9.3″, 10.5″, 13.5″, and 15″) and three durable finishes (black, desert tan, and OD green).
• Premium Materials: Crafted from 6061 T-6 aluminum and featuring anti-rotational tabs and QD mounts made from heat-treated 17-4 stainless steel.
• Enhanced Durability: With a Type 3 Hardcoat Anodized finish and a non-timing barrel nut, this rail is built to last under the toughest conditions.

The Lights Out Rail doesn’t just raise the bar; it rewrites the standard. It’s the perfect addition for those who demand reliability and innovation in the field.
