Mechanicsville VA -This weekend we had great weather and Six participants (all red hat/shoot boss)  in the Appleseed Pistol Clinic "train the Trainers" event. MK1765 attended as Charter Pistol Instructor for the event. I anticipate that all will be running events around the country soon. There is a process with these designations so stand by.

I have run three of these in the past several months, and other Charter  Pistol instructors are doing the same. Unfortunately, one event (with many students signed) was knocked off by the co-vid restrictions around the Country, but things are slowly returning to normal.  :F

More PP/TTT events are to follow-stay tuned-contact "Malabar"  on the forum to arrange for this in your state or area. The participants for PP/TTT must be red hats or shoot bosses for this block of instruction and designation. Thanks-StevenK

I had a great time.  Thanks to Steven and Melissa for coming down to teach us.  They were great!  I also enjoyed making new friends with the other students.  I also am thankful to the host range for allowing me to camp on Saturday and Sunday nights.

I took a couple of pictures.

They who can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety.
Benjamin Franklin, 1775

"A free people ought not only to be armed, but disciplined; to which end a uniform and well-digested plan is requisite; and their safety and interest require that they should promote such manufactories as tend to render them independent of others for essential, particularly military, supplies."  George Washington 1790

"[T]o preserve liberty, it is essential that the whole body of the people always possess arms, and be taught alike, especially when young, how to use them…"
- Richard Henry Lee, Declaration Signer

Practice every time you get a chance. - Bill Monroe

The Second Amendment is a doomsday provision, one designed for those exceptionally rare circumstances where all other rights have failed -- where the government refuses to stand for reelection and silences those who protest; where courts have lost the courage to oppose, or can find no one to enforce their decrees. However improbable these contingencies may seem today, facing them unprepared is a mistake a free people get to make only once.

-- Justice Alex Kozinski, US 9th Circuit Court, 2003

This was a most memorable event. New material was a treat, but as always the best part was getting to meet fellow instructors from all over for the first time.

Thanks to StevenK and MK1765 for both running the shoot, and for support beforehand.

Thanks to The Wolfhound, Dangerous Cook, and K at the Black Creek Range for hosting. Couldn't have asked for a nicer venue.
