It was a privilege to spend the weekend with a group of dedicated Americans to spend the weekend learning marksmanship and reconnecting with their heritage.

Special mention to all the Walworths (Sarah, Mark and Josh), who made the weekend a family affair, and Brendan, and all the shooters who made extraordinary progress over the weekend.

No riflemen this weekend, but several knocking on the door, and we expect to see them back to finish the job!

We also had the chance to give First Strike on Saturday to a Tea Party group meeting at the range, and so sort of wrapped up a LibrarySeed and Appleseed all in one.

Hopefully someone can post some of the pix of the weekend.

Again, what a privilege!
"It is an uphill struggle, but I wish that we could distinguish more carefully between freedom and liberty. These conditions are not the same, though they are certainly related. Freedom is the absence of restraint - a physical circumstance. Liberty, on the other hand, is a political situation denoting the lawful capability of the citizen to defend himself and his near and dear without interference from the state. Note that the Declaration of Independence forcibly and particularly establishes the blessings of liberty upon ourselves and our posterity. I like to carry a pocket copy of the Declaration, plus the Constitution, in my travels. It is a good thing to have in hand when discussions arise."

Some positive comments on the shoot are up on the Team M 14 Forum.

"If you will not fight for the right when you can easily win without bloodshed; if you will not fight when your victory will be sure and not too costly; you may come to the moment when you will have to fight with all the odds against you and only a small chance of survival. There may even be a worse case: you may have to fight when there is no hope of victory, because it is better to perish than to live as slaves."
Winston Churchill

I really enjoyed this shoot. I spent a good deal of time with the Walworth family down on the the big end. Great family and great attitudes by everyone. Josh, you should be proud going from paper sized groups down to 8-10 moa. Keep at it! You'll keep improving. O0

Congratulations to Tim Beatty for getting that Red Hat!
