Almost time for CANCON to return to Arizona at the Ben Avery Shooting Center! Join us April 11th & 12th, 2025 for an action-packed weekend of fully suppressed shooting!
Not only are there two complete days of fully-suppressed shooting (plus a third early access day exclusively for VIP ticket holders) but we’ve added events and opportunities within the larger CANCON weekend for attendees and sponsors alike!
UNLIMITED ACCESS
HUNDREDS of suppressors from dozens of manufacturers for you to shoot ALL DAY! From Hollywood quiet .22 LR guns to big .30 Cals, we’ll have it all. From revolvers to a mini-gun, you can expect to see and shoot some wild stuff!
OFFGRID BASECAMP
Something totally new to CANCON is the OFFGRID BASECAMP! Take a step back from the firing line and learn from the pros in quick, practical lessons, getting hands-on training from seasoned survival and adventure experts with the latest outdoor and survival gear.
Check out the best in EDC essentials and mission-ready survival gear. Whether you’re a weekend warrior or a hardcore survivalist, this is your chance to gain the knowledge and tools to thrive in any environment.
PROS Vs. JOES
The Pros vs Joes competition series pits randomly selected members of the crowd against industry professionals including competitive shooters, brand representatives, and RECOIL’s own editorial staff. The challenges are blind—you won’t know the rules, stages, or guns until you step up to the line—and participants are chosen from the crowd at the time of the competition. (No sign-ups available!)
The rules are simple: if you beat our pro at the assigned challenge, you win a prize. If you lose to our pro, you will go up against a fellow volunteer from the crowd in a winner-takes-all redemption round. Either way, one lucky attendee is going home with some free gear.
To top it all off, our professional video production team will film the entire match, and post it on RECOILtv and YouTube after the event for the world to see!
