Lewistown, PA Aug 4-5, 2012 - AAR


Only 5 students....    :(
5 GREAT students GOOD!  :---

Big thanks to Sandy (I found the loooong detour on the way home), Terry, Allana, Rob and Kyle!  You folks were great students.  I can appreciate the long drive, long days and camping in the rain;  Appleseed Old School!

Terry was our lone Rifleman (well done), but the improvement shown by everyone was most excellent.  It's only a matter of time and practice, every one of you is capable of it!

I hope you enjoyed yourselves and learned a thing or two.  I wish we had some more time on the BIG range,  BOOONG... sure sounds nice, doesn't it?  ...and whoever thinks that you can't ring steel at 200yds with a .22....  Go Kyle!


Thankfully,. the challenges of Saturday's heat and humidity and Sunday's torrential downpours were kept to a minimum by the very fine covererd firing line at the Mifflin County Sportsmans Club.  Again I say, they have a fine facility.


Congrats to PA's newest Red Hat... Stand!  Well done Chuck.

...and a very fine job for his first time out of the gate by Publican.

It was a great weekend!  Thanks to the club for hosting us.  The long haul students from VA and our local PA student made great advances.  I hope they follow through with the promotion of the program in VA I would love to see some more ranges having events closer to them.

Terry and Rob had HUGE grins after shooting my M1!  ;D  I would be supprised if the order isn't in yet.

It was nice to meet Publican and to work with Chainsaw.

I'm becomming a fan of covered ranges, at least if it pours during an event.  It helpd fend off the ever present rust monster.

As an Appleseed student, I thought  there was so much to learn. Being on the Orange hat side of things, I see I have sooo much more to learn (in addition to trying to become a better Rifleman).

NO REGRETS THOUGH! Thanks for all the help and encouragement from Chainsaw and Stand. GRATS Stand on the RED HAT!
