If anybody sees anything please let me know so I can post the article on our page here: http://appleseedinfo.org/latest_news.html

It's been awhile since I updated that page.

Scuzzy,

I put up this review in June.  It has since been viewed 561 times, so hopefully some of those folks will get off the couch and in the car...

Thanks - added to latest news. Weezer said Gunner got the OK for 2016 from the range board. Still working on the dates so as to not conflict with other events there.

Anybody else have any news to add to the website?

We just finished the Appleseed Program at the Georgia Gun Club, and I say HUZZA!  I served in the Army in the '60s, spent my summer vacation in Viet Nam, then served 23 years as a Poolice Officer, (2 O's).  I've been certified as a State Firearms Instructor in Georgia, certified by the NRA, (which isn't terribly exhaustive), and taught in hundreds of firearms programs.  Folks, I ain't seen nuthin' like this.  First, the facility is the best I've ever seen, 100 yard indoor range! Much more importantly, our Instructors were as professional, courteous, and patient as any I've ever been privileged to meet.  They took the time to train us one on one, and were reassuring ever step of the way!  No, I didn't score marksman, but I saved my first and last qualification targets, and still can't believe the improvement!!!  Apparently, you can teach an old dog new tricks.  Thanks to you all, and God Bless America!!!!!! The Mad Mongoose...OUt!

96 SHOOTS SO FAR!

WSMR Instructor 03/10  -  SAPPER STEEL!

�The real man smiles in trouble, gathers strength from distress, and grows brave by reflection�   Thomas Paine

Proverbs 22:3  -  A prudent person foresees danger and takes precautions. The simpleton goes blindly on and suffers the consequences.

"Far better is it to dare mighty things, to win glorious triumphs, even when checkered by failure... than to rank with those poor spirits who neither enjoy, nor suffer much, because they live in a gray twilight that knows not victory or defeat".
Theodore Roosevelt

"The truth may be puzzling. It may take some work to grapple with. It may be counterintuitive. It may contradict deeply held prejudices. It may not be consonant with what we desperately want to be true. But our preferences do not determine what's true."

Vjornaxx, your link didn't work for me.  I fixed it, though.

Looks like it just needed the quotes left out:
