Project Appleseed

Yes, its a good rifle, but its even better at this price.

This event was beyond fun, regardless of the heat, humidity, and rain on Sunday. It was great to make new friends while we all endured the weather and learned new skills. Can't wait to go back for another event. My first KD didn't go so well a few years ago, but this weekend absolutely helped my skills. Even though this wasn't an official KD, my first target didn't qualify, but my 2nd (Sunday) got me on the 40 hit mark. So now knowing I can achieve a KD Rifleman score, I cant wait to return to another Offical KD.

The Instructors were great, told some awesome stories of our country's history, and due to the extended rain on Sunday, we got to learn a little bit about each other while waiting out the storms.

So much fun, as always!!!

One of the Virginia rifleman companies raised pursuant to the resolutions of the Second Continental Congress on June 14, 1775 was under the command of Capt. Hugh Stephenson in Mecklenburg, now Shepherdstown, WV.  (Of course, the other Virginia company was under the command of Daniel Morgan.)

On Saturday, July 19, 2025 there will be an encampment of Revolutionary War reenactors at Shepherdstown WV's Morgan's Grove Park.  One of the formal presentations shall be by Travis Shaw, Director of Education, Virginia Piedmont Heritage Area.  He shall be presenting "I am persuaded they will do great execution — The Maryland and Virginia Rifle companies of 1775."

There will be several other interesting presentations during the event and a parade.

I agree, it was a great event!

I also think the rain delay worked in everyone's favor (except for the canopy, that is!) giving folks an extended rest/cool down time.

DMVRifle, I have faith you can make the 250!

I hope to share a range with all of you again.

Stay Vigilant!

What a great (if hot) weekend! Glad everything is all good with your family. Thank you both for all the help with improving my shooting - now to try to get those last 7 points and make it an even 250

It was an amazing weekend and we all had fun and learned so much.  Looking forward to keep improving and helping others with what I learned over the course of the 2 days. I think we are all looking forward to the next clinics we hold. Always learning and love the history. Thanks again for coming up and putting on a great weekend Shannon.

What a weekend!

Everyone persisted despite heat and humidity (welcome to Virginia in the summer), and the edge of a thunderstorm swatting the target line and one of the popup canopies we had for shade. 

Congratulations to Geoff and Julian and Jay for outstanding shooting!  All achieved Pistoleer™, Geoff also earning a Distinguished Pistol Score patch.  Huzzah!   Jay and Geoff both also shot at least 1 clean Red Coat target, earning the Virginia patch.  Huzzah!

My apologies for Sunday afternoon, I was called away by a family emergency (all is well now).  My sincere thanks to all who attended for understanding and a BIG thank you to Messer for stepping up to finish up the shoot.

I look forward to seeing each of you again at a shoot in the near future!






It's ok to smile, really!

It was a rough weekend in NE!! Glad to see everyone made it out the other side safe with another successful weekend on the firing line.

By MA standards, that definitely counts as an infernoseed.  A huge Huzzah to all those shooters who came out and braved the heat and UV index to hear the three strikes and put rounds through AQTs.  Congratulations to all those who managed to improve so dramatically, despite the heat, and in particular to all our new riflemen!
