Project Appleseed

This was truly a great event. We had about 50 people, young and young at heart come out to hear the stories of April 19th 1775.

Our day started off with some introductions and what Appleseed is about then into some great story telling. All three strikes were presented with breaks to talk about some of the clothing and firearms used during this period in history.

Once history was finished, we jumped into the history of firearms from the 1700s to present day. Our shooters learned about flintlocks, both smooth bore and rifled, single shot rifles, repeating rifles, The M1 Garand, M1 Carbine and even talked about what does AR stand for. Just for fun we even pulled out a few "Big Guns"   We closed this segment on an important topic. We all must understand that what we see on TV and reality is very different. The firearm is just a tool. It is a very powerful tool and must be wielded as such.

I believe everybody had a good time and I can tell you for sure your instructors enjoyed sharing our history with you.

Thank you all for attending.

Outstanding! This is great! Looks like a half day AS and Libertyseed combined. Well done! Love the Revolutionary War attire as well.
