Another great shoot in southern AZ.  The SAT Appleseed was attended by three shooters, which was an all-time low and a rather large instructor cadre (nine!).  But surprisingly,  we had thirteen shooters on the line on SUN.

We minted one new rifleman (Pete from Nebraska) with a score of 218 (his second ever AQT).  He has a long history of rifle competition and said that it was the finest novice rifleman training he has ever attended.  Several shooters were knocking on the door.

The Good:  Fantastic weather and enthusiastic shooters.

The Bad:  Poor attendance on SAT.

The Ugly:  No-see-um insects descended in force and scarred the shooters quite literally.  Instructors and shooters are still recovering as we speak.

Another great event to awaken the sleeping giant of freedom and rescue it from any political activity.
Gun control is mind control.

" Of every One-Hundred men, Ten shouldn't even be there,
Eighty are nothing but targets,
Nine are real fighters...
We are lucky to have them...They make the battle,
Ah, but the One, One of them is a Warrior...
and He will bring the others back."

What a great shoot!

Weather was fantastic, as were the shooters.  Pictures shortly, as I get them uploaded.

Hope to see all of you in December, with friends and family of course!

Huh?

Guess the founders made a big mistake with the Bill of Rights and their source.  Not to mention the most beautiful words ever written:

"We hold these truths to be self evendent,,,,,,,"
"These are the times that try men's souls. The summer soldier and the sunshine patriot will, in this crisis, shrink from the service of their country; but he that stands it now, deserves the love and thanks of man and woman. Tyranny, like hell, is not easily conquered; yet we have this consolation with us, that the harder the conflict, the more glorious the triumph. What we obtain too cheap, we esteem too lightly: it is dearness only that gives everything its value."   T Paine
