I brought a new shooter (one of my best friends' girlfriend), Krissy. I brought her to a sandpit near her home a few weeks ago to practice safe gun handling and she fired her first shots (Wather P22). Today was her first time on rifles. She LOVED it and wants to get her own LTC now.

I got in a little shooting too. But this is mostly a social event for me so I let my guest do most of the shooting of my equipment. Here I am with my SA SOCOM 16.

Here is MASSMARK's highly modified SOCOM 16!!!! Doesn't even look like the same weapon:

Thank you Jim and Shirley Rod & Gun club (and the kitchen staff too!).

Thanks also to Kingson for his generous sharing of his Russian collection, Blitz for the use of his Mossberg, and Eddie Coyle for letting my son tear off his wrists with that monster blaster!

Thanks to all who made my son feel so welcome!

We had a GREAT time!

i see my shoulder on the rifle range pic!

i'm transferring the DV tape from my camera to my PC now. i know i got some good shots of jim's hand cannon and darius with USMA-82's brown bess.
 
Rich, the pic of our host is huge! When it came up, all I could see was from the bicep to the muzzle. I thought, wow, E.C. really is synonymos with S&W500![laugh] The I slid the blue slidie bar and saw the whole pic.[smile]
Nice shots!

Nice shots!

I think Jim (EC) should change his screen name to: Yosemite Sam.

I left EC's pic larger-than-life in case he wants to download it. When he's all set, I'll resize it! [grin]
 
Glad it went so well.

I have been battling a wicked cold that I thought would be gone by this morning. It was still bad and I could not make it.[sad]

I'm glad you all had fun.

I have been getting ready to go for months and today was brutal with my cold.

I am sorry that I did not cancel sooner, but I thought I would make it.
 
Thanks to EC & everyone that made today's shoot possible...what a great time!

Here are some pics from the pistol range:

Thanks Attila... Now I can see why EC was asking if I were shooting full auto [mg].

That spastic trigger finger of yours is now infamous outside of WSC [rofl]

A late change in plans made me home alone this weekend. I was going to try and grab an open slot but woke up with a splitting headache. Probably wouldn't have been a good combination. Glad to see the pics and videos of everyone having a good time. I'm glad the rain held off until later in the day.
